That was a good 60 yards in the air and right on target

Honest to god truth, I thought it was all female teams.

staking a lot of their future for a questionable quarterback... i've seen how that works out

That graphic was before last season started so that's why Bridgewater is shown as 0-0 as a starter, but it still shows that we've had 10 starting QB's since Manning retired (11 starters if you count the one FUBAR game during Covid where all 4 of Denver's actual QB's couldn't play because they had tested positive so we had to start practice squad wide receiver Kendall Hinton). It's been an absolute shit show at the QB position here. Yes, Denver gave up a lot of picks, including their #1 this year coming up, but I think it will be worth it. Wilson gets a change of scenery and he is still a top tier QB in the league. He's only 32 so he has a chance of playing a good 5 or 6 years (if not more) if he stays healthy. We didn't give up a lot in terms of players, although I really liked Noah Fant at TE, so I think that will be a bit of a loss, but other than that, it wasn't too bad. I do feel bad for Drew Lock, he really wasn't ever given a fair shot here. He was first hyped up locally as the next John Elway and no one could live up to that kind of pressure. Then when he under performed, the fans quickly turned on him. And he was constantly looking over his shoulder because Denver was always looking to bring in a (failed) veteran QB. And not to mention the fact that we had a completely HORRIBLE OC here for all for Lock's career in Denver.

Yeah, it might have been too much if Wilson doesn't perform, but if we can get into the playoffs and have a legit shot at the Super Bowl, it will end up being worth it. There's hope again for the team which is a far cry from the last handful of seasons where the hope was just that the Broncos would finish above .500 for the season.

good luck, it's sad to have a team that you know will make 0 noise if they even make the playoffs
