Happy for him. Eventually he will have a bad game ( every qb does), it's nice to have this one in the bank to keep his stock up. I think if he gets enough time he will become the permanent solution to the Broncos qb position. He is growing every week.

Here is a great interview link:
http://www.denverbroncos.com/multim..._trapped/69eb7a52-a242-4f2a-9040-5100a9a8e277

Nice interview. He threw out the Fitzism: "Just trying to go 1-0 this week." Also liked his reply to the reporter who noted that a majority of his completions were to the left side of the field, to which he replied it was unintentional and he'll try to complete more on the right side to "even it out for you."

Very quick to spread compliments around to his teammates. Came across as not being flustered and comfortable in the spotlight. Would like to see him pull a Russell Wilson and keep the job, sending the high priced talent elsewhere or remaining a back-up. The cold weather games may be the telling point - just have to wait and see.

Congrats to him, getting a road victory is nothing to sneeze at in the NFL. I have considerable reservations for him as a viable QB for the Broncos but hats off to the man for making the best of his great situation. As a Broncos fan though, just win.

Assuming he stays healthy & remains the QB, several teams on the upcoming Broncos schedule are not too impressive on the defensive side of the ball. Falcons, Saints, and Raiders are the three worst teams in Total Defense.

Siemians success at the next level is a huge indictment on Fitzgerald and McCall IMO.

His regression as a junior and senior had less to do with injuries and more to do with

A. Talent around him specifically WR and OL (Fitz)
B. Antiquated offensive schemes/general poor coaching (McCall)

It would be good if Fitz would call Trevor and do a "post-exit" interview asking how things are different in regards to how he's being coached. THEN, make changes to mirror that to the greatest extent possible.

Every outgoing player does such an interview.

Unfortunately he was just carted off with what appears to be a left shoulder / collar bone injury

Trevor's back on the sideline with a cap on, not his helmet. Announcer said he is available but Paxton Lynch is running the offense now.

Who is the back-up QB now for Denver? Maybe they'll bring back Sanchez because he knows the offense.

Austin Davis is 3rd on chart; in his 5th season; played most of 2014 season for St. Louis (from Southern Miss).

Mark Sanchez signed with Dallas after Romo went down

Lynch and receivers are doing well. 27-7 with 7+ to go

Lynch came in and is doing great which is good for the Broncos but not so good for Trevor.

Trevor plays for the Denver Broncos, not the Denver Trevor SIemians. He's a team player first who is well aware the NFL is a business. He's put some good stuff on tape (!) and has a future in the NFL.

Glad to learn Trevor was able to stay there on the sidelines after first hearing he had been carted off. The NFL Channel ticker is saying Trevor made NFL history with his 300+ yards and 4 touchdowns - apparently the first NFL QB to do so in his first road game ever.

(Edited to add: Per Cat in CO's correction, apparently today's ticker was referring to last week's game. Also PCiC added that today he had a TD, no interceptions, and an over 70% completion average while still in today's game.)

In reporting on the injury the point was made that it was his left shoulder and that his right shoulder is his throwing shoulder. Even so, wouldn't he be expected to be held out for at least a game or two to have a recovery period for the injury before being put back on the field?

Yeah but I'm a Trevor Siemian and NU fan. I don't care about the Broncos beyond them being a means to advance Trevor and NU's reputation by extension. So, I would rather see Trevor excel and his back up fail. Trevor may be a Broncos guy but the Broncos are just a tool to me. I'm a fan of the Denver Trevor Siemians.

GO SIEMIANS!!!!

Trevor won the AFC Player of the Week for those stats last week vs Bengals. Today before the injury, he was 5/7, 68 yds, 1 TD/0 Int. His QB rating was excellent at 141.7. Lynch ended up with 170 yds, 1 TD/0 Int and rating of 94.1

Local TV is quoting the medical staff that Trevor will get an MRI this week. He told the staff that he could go back in, but precaution had them choose to get evaluation before further game action.

IMO Trevor throws a much better deep ball.
Agree! Trevor's throwing mechanics are better and his spiral is a thing a beauty. Paxton's head and his shoulders have a weird hitch when he finally releases the ball.
