Brock Osweiler good to great QB

[Broncos6482]

I would take Carr over a large majority of QBs (including the one who starts for the team I root for).

Carr is starting to scare me. Dude looks legit. Reminds me of Brett Favre. Doesn't have great mechanics, but he's got a great arm, decent wheels, and isn't afraid to throw it into tight windows.

7 come from behind wins in a little over 3 years excites me about Carr. He's so cool and calm under pressure and has some great leadership qualities.

In fairness to Osweiler their o-line play has been lacking, and Lamar Miller is also overrated IMO. As the season goes on, his surrounding cast may improve and he may start to look better as a result.

KC and SD are trash....it's all about Oakland vs Denver for the West title. I love it when this is the case......makes for a great rivalry.

Osweiler makes his line look worse. Trust me.

Yup I was just about to say that. When his first read is not open he does not have the great ability to make it through his reads. So he just keeps holding onto the ball. I think he also thinks he is faster than he is so tries to make plays with his feet but he is a clumsy mess sometimes when he tries to move around.

From Tempe, ASU:
To the critiques who thought he would not be.
Right now he is a good QB soon to be great if he keeps doing what he is doing.
I loved him as a Sun Devil but wished he were on different NFL team. When Carson Palmer retires I would love to see my Cards pick him up.

Osweiler sucks a dick, fucker couldn't find Hopkins all day yesterday.

You guys are probably right, but LT Duane Brown hasn't even played yet this year. That's been an issue.

You are right and it is a combination of the two. I just know we saw this last year in Denver where even when he did have good blocking he would hold the ball forever if his first read was covered and always found a way to take a hit. Many people don't realize that Osweiler was actually pretty beat up heading into the playoffs last year. Made the decision to go with Manning a bit easier when Osweiler was struggling to walk at the beginning of the week and missed the entire bye week of the playoffs. He just tries to play hero way too often.

hence, he's not that good.

Agreed. Teams today are so desperate to find an even competent starter that anybody that even looks like they might have a hint of talent gets paid ridiculous money. Which is why we see so many franchises that continue to be in the dumps. Teams just too quickly panic thinking they have to have immediate success or see the door. It is why I laughed when so many people ripped on the Broncos for letting Osweiler walk out the door at the price he was paid.

Haters will hate. Remember what he did last year you Dorks

LOL, Osweiler wasn't able to keep the starting job over arguably the worst QB of last season, Peyton Manning.

Hopefully, Osweiler can at least figure out how to use Hopkins. My fantasy team needs it. Seriously, 1 target?!?!

Thought this might be wrong. 1 catch for 4 yards in 6 targets,

You're right. Hopefully the targets go up, but even if they do, it looks like there is trouble with the connection percentage.
