Brock Osweiler: Kubiak disputes Osweiler locked-in starter
He has been biding his time for three-plus seasons behind future Hall of Famer Peyton Manning. John Elway had it.
Given the increased emphasis on under-center formations since Osweiler took the reins from Peyton Manning, the success might not be a coincidence.
PREDICTION: Brock Osweiler is creating waves, and a quarterback debate, but it’s the Denver defense that wreaks the most havoc in abusing San Diego’s inferior offensive line and pressuring QB Philip Rivers into mistakes to pull away late. He’s humble, he’s likable and, most importantly, he comes across as 100 percent genuine. Osweiler however, seems the flawless fit. And that’s great. Unfortunately, it can also get a little boring. Something people won’t like! That’s what I’m focused on.
“He hasn’t gotten a ton of work other than the preseason”, Rivers said.
On Wednesday, safety David Bruton Jr. was awarded one of the most meaningful team honors when he was selected as the Broncos choice for the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year award, honoring community involvement.
Brock: “I know this football team will play anywhere, anytime, no matter what the weather is”. And nothing’s changed where we’re heading this week, Brock’s our starter this week and we’re all in getting ready for San Diego. The biggest problems they had against the Chiefs came during the second half of the game; they were held to a total of 6 and 0 points in the 3rd and 4th quarter respectively. “I’m anxious about not falling and slipping, anxious about catching the ball with the snow – that’s mainly the thing”. Of course I don’t care. “I can’t wait to get out there”. “I can’t put a number on it, or a percentage, but I feel OK to go out there today and run around”, Amendola said. “I had a good idea what I was going to do with (the punt return). That’s a clown question, bro”.
Every single one of the remaining games on the schedule is must win. He was ecstatic for the team. San Diego RB Melvin Gordon, team’s first-round draft pick, still looking for first NFL TD….
“The things I’ve learned from him … the list is endless”.
“We know our record is what it is, but for a team (Sunday’s win) was big for us”, Rivers said.
“I didn’t think it was bad at first, and then I couldn’t run, like turn over my legs at a high rate”, Amendola said. However, he still has a long recovery to get back on the field. “I’m not smart enough to follow all of the medical jargon, but he said the important part is torn…so you’d call it a tear I guess”. Before head coach Rex Ryan can try to play the role of the spoiler to his former team, he must figure out a way to stop his team’s losing streak and get a win against a Texans team that has won four in a row.
“All of them”, Rivers said. It’s a word without our offense.
