When you had shoddy QB play as Denver Broncos head coach Vance Joseph did last season, you deserve another chance with a more competent choice at the helm…

Many in Broncos Country have ridiculed and vilified Denver Broncos head coach Vance Joseph. The reasons are obvious enough.

After starting 3-1 in his rookie head coaching season, he proceeded to win two of his last 10 games.

When you go 5-11 with this fan base, under any circumstances, heads should roll instantaneously as they see it.

Thus, Joseph, in certain circles, has become a bigger villain than Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers could have dreamed of.

This is especially true when one considers that every time he had an optimistic quote, he was lambasted on Twitter during a horrid end to 2017.

With that said, he definitely deserves a chance to try his luck with a veteran quarterback.

Early Monday morning, word emerged on Twitter that the Buffalo Bills were planning to give three QB’s starters’ reps at training camp.

Broncos Country realizes what a disaster this is based on last season’s nightmare.

I don’t think you can judge Joseph so harshly predicated upon a horrendous QB situation.

Monday morning, ABC 7 and Denver Broncos Insider/sportscaster Troy Renck, had some interesting thoughts from Joseph.

Now, “playing fast” in this sphere seems to imply something different than playing the slots in Las Vegas.

I would suggest it more fully describes an offense that can be executed properly with a (no disrespect) competent QB.

With all due respect to Trevor Siemian, Paxton Lynch, and Brock Osweiler, Case Keenum is better already than they could ever hope to be.

Keenum, to me, seems to be somewhere between Jake Plummer and Kyle Orton in Broncos’ quarterback lore.

Keenum, in my humble opinion, is playing with a better overall team than Plummer had during the magical 13-3 season in 2005.

Of course, if the Broncos end the regular season at 13-3, be assured that the playoffs won’t go so well.

Next. Broncos training camp injury report. dark

In four previous postseasons where the team has finished 13-3, they have failed to win a championship.

Anyway, in a quarterback’s league, it’s obvious the Broncos need Keenum to be more of who he was at Minnesota in 2017.

August 11, incidentally against the Vikings, is the first chance Broncos Country has to see him.

I cannot speak for others, but as for me, I await this with rapt anticipation.
