I fully get the desire to have a veteran QB to lead a new young offense. Don’t get me wrong, Russ isn’t even playing bad at all this year - I have no complaints about his play. He isn’t going to lead us to the playoffs though. He has basically no trade capital either, so we’re just eating his salary.
I would really rather see new blood on the field at the moment, even if we lose. I know the Broncos have been searching for their starting QB since the Manning era which are some big shoes to fill. But it isn’t going to be Rus.
He’s thrown like a hundred passes only. Why is everyone so sure he’s a known quantity?
