Post Pre-Season Game 2 QB Poll

[fightinredantz]

I thought it would be fun to take the a poll on who we think should be the starting QB after 2 pre-season games.

 

[coloradobuff]

I still think it's Lock.

If Vic wants Teddy - and it really sounds like he does - give him Teddy Bridgewater. I'll be happy either way. The offense will have different personalities - with either one of them.

Where’s the poll?

Anyway, I’m firmly in the belief that this year needs to be Lock’s prove it year. Next year is the last year of his rookie contract. Denver can’t afford to wait too long to find out if they need to extend him or not. Use this year to find out if he’s the guy or not. And if he’s not, Bridgewater is a good fallback option.

I am not sure what happened to the poll.

I tried to add one.

You’ll never win pollster off the month that way.
Of course, we did just sign a guy named Scott to the roster. Perhaps the powers-that-be, here, will be in a good mood.

It will be Lock but the leash gets a little shorter when Bridgewater plays well.

I hope they go with Lock, but I think they're going to go with Teddy.

LOCKed and loaded, baby. Drew's job to lose, IMO.

Yes!

Here is Tim Jenkins evaluation of the the QBs in the Seatlle game.

I still have not watched the game, but I do have it recorded.

It seems that Lock has played the best, but some feel Bridgewater will be named the Week 1 starter.

I don’t think that’s what other people are saying. Most people I read,here and otherwise, are saying that Bridgewater outplayed Lock more in game two than Lock outplayed Bridgewater in game one. That’s the simple version.

The analysis smacks of a layman’s trap. Comparing stats, etc.
We’re not going to know until the brass speaks. Elway’s boy is Lock and Paton has TB. Oh to be a fly on the wall.

I feel sorta like it is actually the opposite.

 

[Draft Crazy]

That being said Lock has not played bad. He has done nice things. More then likely it is his job to lose and he hasn’t lost it yet.

I agree that Teddy out played Lock in Seattle. The one thing that keeps bothering me about Teddy is not taking plays are there, instead he dumps it down. If you go back to Vikings game he Benson running wide open farther down the field, but he choose to throw it to the TE. The TE did have a nice run after the catch, but that kind of thing may come back to bite you when playing against starters.

Per Albright Teddy has turned the ball over more then Lock in practice. I think it is very good that neither QB has turned the ball over in the preseason, but Lock did flirt with that in Seattle.

The Seattle game it sounds like there were things that were outside of Lock's control, and the Oline playing in front of him made several mistakes. That is from multiple people on things I have read and listened to. Those folks are making an educated guess.

i’m concerned with the ability of Lock to get protections correct and his fumbles. also getting stepped on on 3rd and goal. it’s the little stuff like that that a vet like Teddy may not do.

the first sack on Drew was all on the QB based on the play call and line assignments . the rpo was designed to look like a run to the right side so if seattle brings two from the left it’s up to the QB to know there is no one over there to block both and he needed to throw hot . 3rd and 10 is still doable.
3rd and 17 it’s over.

 

[SpringStein]

I think those of us who are fans of the team and will be in the future overall would like to see Lock given the chance to succeed - or fail. But this coaching staff has one thing in mind, and that is this year. And since their job depends on this years outcome, who will they choose? I hope Lock. My brain says it will be Steady Teddy.
