It’s just going to be his first NFL start, but Denver Broncos quarterback Brock Osweiler can help answer some really important questions against the Chicago Bears on Sunday. He should be given more time than just the one start, but this is the most important game of his young football career as he attempts to prevent the Broncos from slumping to a three-game losing streak against the suddenly upstart Chicago Bears on the road.

How will Osweiler answer these questions? Will they actually be answered? This is a really exciting time for Broncos fans because the upside of the unknown is better than the reality that Peyton Manning leads the NFL with 17 interceptions and is playing the worst football of his NFL career by a mile.

Here are some important questions I think Osweiler can answer for the Denver Broncos not just for the future, but for the immediate this season and whether or not he is a viable option the rest of the way for this team.
