Broncos will start Brock Osweiler

Posted by Josh Alper on November 1, 2017, 11:10 AM EDT

The Broncos didn’t commit to starting Trevor Siemian at quarterback after Monday night’s loss to the Chiefs or on Tuesday and it looks like Siemian’s time as the team’s starter has come to an end.

According to multiple reports, Broncos coach Vance Joseph informed the team on Wednesday morning that Brock Osweiler will start against the Eagles in Philadelphia on Sunday. Joseph reportedly had Siemian and Osweiler come to the team’s facility on Tuesday night to break the news to them.

Osweiler spent his first four NFL seasons with the team and started seven games for Denver in 2015 before being replaced by Peyton Manning for the second half of their Week 17 game. The Broncos came back to win the game and Manning remained the starter through their Super Bowl win.

Osweiler left for the Texans as a free agent, had a dismal 2016 season and got traded to the Browns. He returned to the Broncos as a free agent after Paxton Lynch hurt his right shoulder just before the start of the regular season.

Siemian started 14 games during an 8-8 2016 season and opened this year with three good outings as the Broncos went 3-1 before a Week Five bye. Siemian has not been anywhere near as good in the last three games, all of which the Broncos lost, and had a nightmarish outing against the Chiefs to force the Broncos’ hand.

watch him win 7 straight and lead them to the playoffs

Like I said in the other thread... Denver's offensive line going to bring back the INT throwing in Brock. Especially against Philly's defense which has been tip top.

Not sure where to stick this ... its a real STUNNER

Brian Hoyer - QB - Patriots

Patriots signed QB Brian Hoyer, formerly of the 49ers, to a three-year contract.
According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Hoyer was also being courted by the Packers. He instead chooses to go back to New England where it all began as an UDFA out of Michigan State. Hoyer will slide in as Tom Brady's backup, replacing Jimmy Garoppolo, who was traded to the Niners on Monday.

It's quite possible. All they need at QB right now is competent.

I don't think so. I think 4life was using gallows humor. It was funny, in a morbid sort of way. smirk

My guess is that Paxton Lynch will be starting for the Broncos in a few weeks.

I suspect that this was done on the side, in advance of the Garrapolo trade. (with the Niners' permission) They couldn't just trade for him, so they waited for the Niners to waive him, then signed him as they had already agreed to. It is probably a big reason why the trade was done with the Niners. The Pats know and trust Hoyer as their backup, in the unlikely event that they should need his services.

I don't know, it seems like there's confidence is Brock executing. Maybe he proves me wrong, it would add to that hefty kick to the gut that's been building and winding back for full velocity haha when it hits... but seems like we can't find rock bottom, but are on a quest to do so.

The only thing that surprises me about this is that we don't have them on our schedule this year for him to kick our butts in a Sunday Night Game, or something.


Browns is the Browns

... there goes Joe Thomas, the best there ever was in this game.

I had a feeling during the last game that he would start the following week. I wonder how he'll do? (Hmmmmmmm, I wonder!)
