Time for Broncos to sign a legit backup QB

[m0ng0]

Why should we care who they sign? I'm good just rolling with Rypien...hey that could be a trademarked tagline

Plus I think it would hurt more if Rypien brings them to the holy land

We will benefit if Rypien sucks.

 

[m0ng0]

Well holy land in today's Denver broncos might be a first down or occasional touchdown? Garbage time of course

Russ ain't been the same since the Monday Night Football in Seattle, where Pete Carroll messed with his mind. The damage may even be permanent.

They have a legit backup in #letsridethebench. They just need a legit starter in front of him.

 

[Threedee]

NICK FOLES, Gardner Minshew , Tyrod Taylor and Taylor Heinicke ​

Foles only works if you sign him as the back-up. He's useless as the official starter.

Exactly, as backup, so Wilson gets to take a few games off to try setting his mind straight. Russ badly need time to find some temple or whatnot high up on Himalaya or deep in Vatican for an able exorcist to cleanse his mind and get rid of mind genie planted by Pete Carroll in that Monday night football.

Oh, that makes sense. And as a backup, Foles is a SB MVP. He also chucked 7 TDs in a 2013 game as Vick's backup, which was an NFL record until Eli and Brees engaged in a shootout and Brees also threw 7 (Eli threw 6).

Looking at today's box score Wilson took 18 Qb hits and 6 sacks. Wow.

Deserved all of them.

 

[Bobblehead]

He was hammered.. for sure.. but there maybe a reason, he is so slow.. he gets back slow, his release is like the slowest I've ever seen from a QB.

They have Brett Rypien.

Who at least had the benefit of playing in the preseason.

What cracks me up about that is that Wilson has played like a backup QB all season. The actual backup, Rypien, plays for one game, and there's no noticeable improvement. And then tons of Broncos fans conclude that it must be the coach's fault.

Not that the coach is faultless, he is certainly flawed. But expecting to determine whether the problem lies with the QB or the coach by watching how well the backup plays? Unless your backup is Geno Smith, I don't see any logic in that.

His mind is certainly messed up, but it wasn't just Pete who messed it up. The 12s booing, the Bronco fans booing, him surrounding himself with yes-men and believing his own schtick, etc., all of that did him in mentally.

hard to play QB under those conditions.

 

[Threedee]

I think even Charlie Whitehurst might be a better option...Broncos fans already think Tebow was a better qb.

Tebow would have the same physical limitations as Wilson.

 

[renofox]

Tebow won a playoff game as Denver's starting QB.

Will Russ?

 

[toffee]

The lacking of chemistry between Russ and his teammates are now apparent, and Russ being a player and a partner to HC and GM, can he ask for signing of additional WRs?

 

[m0ng0]

wow!! It's getting bad over there.
