After Denver's win over the 49ers on Saturday night in preseason Week 2, and on Monday they announced that Trevor Siemian won the starting QB job. It seems like Siemian won the job based on the fact that he was consistent, steady, and solid enough to beat out Paxton Lynch. Siemian will start the season opener on Monday September 11th against the Chargers. For the second straight year, it seems as if Siemian won the job by default. There is plenty of time to talk about Siemian's upside or downside, but we'll save that for a later date. As for Lynch, this is a setback and it is clear right now that he just isn't ready to become a starter for this team. Hopefully, he will continue to progress and if he gets a chance to play this year, maybe he can make the most of it. I think it is too early to call Lynch a bust, but this is certainly not what myself or other Broncos fans envisioned to start this season. In any event, as a Broncos fan, I have to get on board with Siemian as the starter because if he succeeds, then the Broncos will do well this year. Here are my other thoughts on the game.....
1) DeAngelo Henderson has to make this team. He continues to impress each week, and I love the way he runs. He looked good again in the 49er game.
2) I like the way that Zach Kerr and Adam Gotsis looked good during this game. I think that if they can step up as rotational guys on the defensive line, then we could be in business stopping the run once again.
