A bit more? I’d say a bunch more than the 5 passes thrown his way on Sunday.

Right.

Trevor Siemian got dogged by Eagles HC Doug Pedersen today.

Details

"I watched that Broncos Raiders game. We play both teams this year so of course we watched them play. Let me tell you that the Raiders defense is one of the worst in the NFL of recent memory. Khalil is the only player to worry about. With how bad they are, that Broncos offense laid almost a complete goose egg on them and it is all because of their quarterback. Watching him this season, even in their first two wins, we feel confident in being able to stop Trevor. You always feel confident when getting ready to defense against backup quarterbacks."

Seems odd though for me for any HC to say especially Pedersen who was a backup QB in the NFL himself. I don't believe it to be true.

It also says "unverified"

I got the same info you did that he had said this. Not a good look if true for Pederson and not exactly encouraging for the Broncos if that is how the rest of the league really does look at Siemian.

I hope he did say it. I seriously doubt that an NFL coach would be stupid enough to throw something like that out there, but I hope he did.

Only a real idiot coach would even talk to media about any game other than the one he has coming up and no smart coach disses a future opponents players. This story is total fake news. How gullible is ya ?

 

[SpringStein]

Yea, I have a hard time believing that. And I’m sure that would be great bulletin board material.

If he did say this it wasn’t during an interview. Teams do say things like this behind closed doors. Before the Super Bowl the Panthers coaches were making fun of CJ Anderson thinking he wasn’t that big of a threat and telling players not to worry about the run game.

Yeesh, if true, just reaffirms that I was glad to be rid of him after the 2014 season. What a meathead. I am as negative on Siemian as there is going to be, but this is just asking to be humiliated.

I just find it odd that a career backup QB would make a comment like this himself.

 

[Dr Cyanide 28]

definitely a behind closed doors, talking w/ his own coaches or friends kind of comment. Not a media one. Not sure if I believe it but def not a public statement

Where was Pederson's comment reported? If looks like a quote from somewhere.
