Okung's overrated. Nothing special about him right now. He didn't really improve the Bronco's O-line, and that right there should raise some red flags.

Then again, they did have the worst RT of the 2016 season.

When your QB sucks not much you can do. Denver's problems are more than players on the line.

Siemian has potential. Only reason he didn't get sacked to a terrible rate was because of his mobility.

I can assure you every Bronco fan knows their line sucks, and should be first priority. Their RT was PFF's worst RT by a longshot, and their center is the only one who had a decent grade.

When you are let go by two teams (Seattle, Denver) with terrible lines it doesn't instill much confidence in him being an upgrade.

Seattle's philosophy doesn't involve investing in OL period, and, like Denver, doesn't have near the rosy cap situation we do.  Representing himself, his deal was really only a one year deal with a lot of smoke and mirrors and his option wasn't favorable to the Broncos going forward (similar to the Jags with Beachem).  He should not be option #1, but he should be firmly entrenched on the list of options.  He's still only 29/30 and has played in many big time football games.

      Trap game

      This won't be a trap game for them. I worry more for the next time we face Atlanta. That's a death trap game if we aren't careful.

      Where do you fall on the Bryce Young spectrum?

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Luckily, we've got more games ahead to watch and see what happens. Maybe he keeps growing his game, maybe we see that he's topped out when we hit stiffer competition. Or maybe he flames out against a team he should well be able to beat like the Jets this weekend. I really can't tell where all of this will end. I can say, though, there's no reason to hit the kid at the moment. Let him roll for as long as he can.  Heck, Sam Darnold is setting the league on fire right now, along with Baker Mayfield and Daniel Jones. Examples of guys mired in bad coaching on bad teams (sometimes our own) that hit their stride just as a team did. Maybe we're about to get lucky.  I do know one thing. The biggest change in a winning Bryce and a losing Bryce is that when he plays fearlessly, he is a hell of a competitor. When he gets scared, and he has so many times, it all just falls apart for him and no team can save him. Bravery makes the difference and it comes from believing in not just himself, but his line, his receivers, his running back and the play calling. Just like most young QBs. And quite a few of the old ones. Rodgers couldn't make it in the chaos of the Jets situation. He can in Pittsburgh, so it seems.

      That’s what I thought too. Maybe I interpreted it wrong. I was considering maybe taking a last minute trip but I think I’ll pass
