But it wasn’t until the scuffles continued during the team period shortly thereafter that Kubiak said, “Enough”. “I’m going to make a decision next week, and we’re going to go to work”. I’m proud of all of them. “We could always start faster, but just getting into the flow of the offense kind of playing more this week we see how things kind of work”.

Denver Broncos quarterback Mark Sanchez has fallen behind Trevor Siemian in the team’s starting competition, 9 News Denver’s Mike Klis confirms. After Saturday night’s affair against the San Francisco 49ers, one thing is astonishingly clear-there is no time like the present.
Tie goes to Sanchez, but he certainly hasn’t earned it after two games with one touchdown and three turnovers.
I think that’s because Kubiak wants to see how both Siemian and the rookie Paxton Lynch plays against the Rams. “Obviously he has one play he’d like to have back, or it probably would, it would have, been as good as it could be”, Kubiak said. In Paxton’s case, his best plays won’t be the ones drawn up in the playbook-no, they will be the ones that he makes on his own, with his instincts, on his raw talent alone-the ones that make your jaw drop, and will lift 78,000 fans to their feet and send a roar of excitement across the Mile High City.
As he did following the game, Kubiak reaffirmed Monday that while Siemian has to protect the ball better, Kubiak said of his play call, “Hell, man, that wasn’t a very good call”.
But for the second week in a row, the spotlight will shine exclusively on challenger Blaine Gabbert when the 49ers, with Kaepernick watching from the sidelines, visit the Denver Broncos on Saturday night.
So Siemian gets the start against the Los Angeles Rams who have themselves one of the best defensive lines in the game. “No excuse for that”. “I told him I can’t put the team in a situation like that”.
You might remember that Broncos coach Gary Kubiak replaced the legendary Peyton Manning last season after a four-interception effort against the Kansas City Chiefs. Denver was hoping to avoid the uncertainty that persisted previous year between Manning and Osweiler. Hodges is expected to start this game after Wilhoite did the last one.
Sanchez, who started the Broncos’ preseason opener at Chicago on August 11, took over with about 11:15 remaining in the second quarter and quickly got to work, finding Cody Latimer up the middle for a 24-yard strike.
There hasn’t been much of a quarterback battle the past week because of Colin Kaepernick’s sore throwing shoulder. “If he can impart some of that on our young guys, we want to have him around as long as Charles wants to be around.”. Kubiak said today that Siemian’s interception was “just a poor decision”.
“It’s like a lot of times when you have a muscle injury, all of a sudden ‘Hey I feel great, ‘ and then all of a sudden the guy re-injures it, because they push it too far”, Kelly said.
