And now we have circled back to complaining about trading away a starting QB.

Huddle is amazing

It's more of a dig at the "we need a good backup QB" crowd I think. There's some cross over between them and the trade Teddy for anything crew.

He’s never going to be THE guy. Broncos fans know that and are basically hoping they can sneak into the playoffs with a good defense and run game. Like many of us here said when he was signed only way to win with Teddy is to have a great defense and run game. He’s never going to take over a meaningful game.

Broncos gonna learn.

Those fans are in for a rude awakening.  Their bad QBs have at least been guys who can still sling it and tried to push things down field (to little to sometimes successful effect) and now, oh man..Teddy is going to rip them apart from the inside by his nothingness.

I wish we were facing the Broncos this year. Would like to see how Teddy plays on the other side.

Everything I’ve read is basically a mirror of threads last year with us. Some posters saying he’s good enough to not give you a top draft pick but not good enough to take you over the top. Some posters saying he’s a checkdown qb and rather roll with someone who has more talent, other delusional posters like the ones last year who mention one or two deep throws in NO/CAR he’s made and how hE cAn ThRoW dEeP.

And paid him 17 million to do so 

Just think about that for a minute,  they thought so much of Teddy that they paid another team to take him off their hands. Kinda derails the theory that the FO was all in on Teddy doesn't it?  I still can't believe anyone thought that.

Reminds me of the conversation between Billy Beane and David Justice in Moneyball

    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
