Do we stick with Driskel or go after a QB?

If Lock returns in two weeks we’re ok, if he’s going to miss the full 6 should we look at a Free Agent or a practice squad QB(i.e say Josh Rosen or Chad Kelley)?

Do you feel confident going into a game with just Driskel and Rypien?

Who cares? Whichever QB can get more losses to be in the Trevor Lawrence sweepstakes.

The season is over.

We all realize this, right? I mean we realize this, right?

Only thing to hope for realistically is the number one pick.

Neither Driskel nor Rypien were ever intended to be long term solutions. This season was all about Lock, and if he ends up missing closer to the 6 weeks I'm not sure we can count on either of these options to keep the team afloat. I don't want to see Lock have to inherit a 1-7, 2-6 team. I consider 3-5 salvageable. Can Driskel get 3 win in the next 6 weeks? Can Rypien?

Believe it or not, of all the ideas I've heard floated I like the Chad Kelly suggestion the most. Too bad he likely burned that bridge.

Driskel had over a 100 rating in the 2nd half. Elway made his bed. Now he has to lie in it .

I think the defense will keep us in every game and the ball will end up bouncing our way to finish 7-9 I'd def be rooting for the #1 pick. Lawrence is that generational talent.

Yeah, I thought he looked decent. I'm not against rolling with him but I think getting another arm NOW is important. The way this season has been with injuries, we're a couple ugly plays away from someone like Beck coming in an taking snaps at QB!

THE Blake Bortles? Oh my!

The Broncos need a 3rd QB for a while anyway. Driskill did just fine - much better than I expect.

I think it makes sense. He is already the most experienced QB on the roster. Not going to excite any fans, no. But so far we're 0-2 with a list of injuries that could continue to grow the way things have been so far.

Driskel played pretty damn well, considering. Lets see how he does with a week's worth of practice with the starters (or what's left of them).

FYI: Blaming Elway for this is moronic; it's not his fault the entire league is being beaten up with injuries.

YES!!!! CLOSER TO TREVOR LAWRENCE!!!

Now the Raiders look like two auto losses. So..

Two losses to Chiefs. Thats a given.
Loss this week to Bucs hopefully.
At least one loss to the Raiders, hopefully two.
At least one loss to the Chargers.
I think the Saints is a loss.

The Panthers have me a bit nervous.

Is Beck on the practice squad?
