LOL. I left OM several years ago. Poor moderation. Babying certain posters. I'm familiar with the guy that runs the place and I think he took his hands off the wheel a bit too much. From complaints I have heard from other people I run into on various boards it has gone downhill quite a bit.

This board is great. Even if we bring up weird ideas (ME) posters don't go all crazy. Or a move John makes they don't like they don't right away want him gone. Debates are fun. I confess I do spend more time then I should on OM but, its so easy and comical with alot of posters to get them mad.

If you didn't know the size of meltdown over this guy. I thought John cut Von Miller or something the way they were going on. Some even want John gone lol.

That's your NFL fanbase for you. Annoying but typical.

Vikings payed Sloter $320K if he stays on PS for entire season. Rookie Minimum is $465K.
In a league starved of starting QB I like Sloter's height , body type , arm strength , intelligence
A lot to work with but I know draft status and salary trumps a lot in the NFL so Elway's ride or die right now is Lynch

Yeah, but it looks to me like Elway has decided either Siemian gets better and keeps the job or Kelly will take it away from him.

Congratulations to Sloter for a great preseason and a good opportunity.

You don't count because as long as we have Elway and a QB on the roster you are good. ;)

I'm just ready for the season to start... It feels like the longest off-season ever for me.

Tired of all the talk about how the QB position will impact us. Just wanna see... Hope for the best expect the worst. I don't feel the pressure this year.

Trevor last year is way better then people are giving him ...

That OL robbed us .. Dennison scheme was treble ..I get it people were not happy but they were not being fare .

If Elway or Kubiak thought Trevor was the problem even for a second He would of been gone . Elway is kind of ruthless .

Here are the two things I keep hearing over and over from bronco fans that just makes me shake my head...

1) Sloter has proven to be a better QB than even Tom Brady (yes heard this from more than one Bronco fan)

2) I can no longer be a Bronco fan after Elway has made such a terrible decision. I'll come back when Elway is gone. (Again heard this from more than one fan)

Has there ever been a town get more excited about a 3rd string at best QB? I mean the list of backup QB's that fans have gone crazy for is crazy.

That shows you how desperate Denver fans are for the second coming of Elway. Kinda of like the Lynch love fest earlier.

When you don't have a viable starter on the team yeah fans go crazy for any glimpse of hope that they have something. Right now looking like another year where the QB position will hold the team back from being a championship caliber team. And unless we sign a big time veteran the Broncos are probably right back in the "who is the starting QB heading into 2018" conversation once again.

Unless we fix the LG position it doesn't matter who we have at QB. If we fix the LG position then Trevor Siemian will be fine as our starting QB.

I'm not going to lose sleep over Sloter but I believe he looked better than Lynch, Siemian and Oz did in their first preseason. He even got the defense to jump offside more than once this preseason with his hard count. That goes to his learning ability .

I wonder what Lynch would look like against 3rd team defenses. Probably not good?

I would seriously like to know who the " big time " veteran would be this year or next that any team would be foolish enough to let go or trade. Let's see...hmnn ....still thinking.......still thinking......help me out here. Not only are good backups a rare commodity but to think there will be a big time vet anytime soon is laughable. Maybe Cousins for a long shot. We're stuck with TS, PL,and Kelly unless a draft pick works.

Why is it laughable? We have no idea what will transpire for next year.

This time a year ago nobody thought Tony Romo was going to be available this off-season. Granted he retired, but he was available. The year Manning was available nobody in their wildest dreams thought the Colts would pick #1 with a franchise QB in there making Manning available after his injury.

There have been a lot of Drew Brees rumors opting out of his deal.

Not saying it will happen. I don't expect something like that to be there for us (others do) but I do not think it is laughable.

If I put my money on it, I would have to guess we are looking at drafting another QB early. Be nice to have the luxury to have someone like Brees and draft another QB early because of Brees age we'd have to have something waiting in the wings which doesn't appear to be on our roster right now barring Chad Kelly picking up the game fast.

But we have no idea what will happen with a year of football ahead of us.

As for right now something coming available this year? Yes, that is laughable.

No wrong. Laughable next year too. Ok, not laughable, extremely unlikely. Feel better? :)
