Drew Lock almost threw for more yards in 1 quarter, than Teddy did in 3.
No one mentions how Lock actually came in and gave us the lead, only for the defense to give it back in 2 plays.
Maybe if Bridgewater actually gave us leads, Lock can come in and just hold the fort, instead of always playing from behind. But that's Lock's fault for sure.
Not a fan of either quarterback. I will say the running game did better with Lock in the game. Teams won’t continually put 7-8 men in the box because Lock has the threat of the deep ball.

They’re averaging 155 rushing yards a game since the bye week, that leads the NFL. I don’t how much more the running game can improve.
Is Lock’s upside/ ability to move the ball and a score offset by his tendency for big mistakes?
he’s a conundrum for sure. Still rather roll with him that watch Teddy throw 3 yard passes.
That's just it B... Do you want boring with few mistakes. Or, do you want exciting with yank your hair out moments? I think we can all agree that as long as we are depending on either one of these guys we are right around .500 (+1/-1).

You're missing the part about the 18 game starter vs the 73 game starter.
So you're saying you still have hope that Lock can evolve into a ???(what) QB? Look back at a couple other QBs after the same amount of games and tell me you thought, hey they just need a few more games. Daniel Jones? Sam Darnold? What are you thinking for guys like Zach Wilson and Tua right now? Just need more games? Sometimes you can tell in a limited sample that players are just not going to get it. Not that we have done Drew Lock any favors. I mean, Shurmur is horrible. Shula isn't bad though.

not a single one of those names can flick their wrist and throw the ball like drew lock
They would dream to have his arm.
He needs the consistency and mental progression. That comes with time and reps and a franchise willing to commit to that.

I would play any one of those guys over Teddy. Once you know the retread has you stuck, there's no reason to do anything but move on. I'd also have little faith Shurmur would do anything for any of them, as you say. But that Shurmur hire was more popular than Teddy around here, or is it there?

Sam Darnold's arm talent is similar perhaps better than Lock's. Zach Wilson's arm Talent is most definitely better than Drew Lock's. Tua and Jones both have slightly better arms than Teddy Bridgewater which isn't saying much.

Player Comparison: Drew Lock. Some team sources have said that Wilson is a better version of Drew Lock, but they have very similar skill sets with arm strength, mobility, and a gunslinger style of play.

This is kind of a weird take. Tua is playing really well right now, Daniel Jones was actually pretty good his rookie year then has progressively gotten worse. I think most will agree Zach Wilson needs more time, he was a project and is on a terrible team. Sam Darnold was terrible from the start.
I guess I’m missing the point you’re trying to make, as your examples are all over the place.
I was referring to strictly the Bengals game. Coincidence or not, the running game got better after Lock started playing.
They started handing it off more to Williams once Lock came in, I’m guessing that had more to do with it. Teams are still going to stack the line and sellout to stop the run, as that’s by far the best part of the Broncos offense. Hopefully Lock can burn them.
