In Vic Fangio’s first season with the Broncos, the team started three different quarterbacks. How did each one do during their time as a starter?

The quarterback position continued to be a struggle for the Denver Broncos in 2019. There is no sugarcoating it. It was believed that, at least for the time being, a former Super Bowl winner and MVP would be able to ease the pain until the team could get a future possible franchise guy ready.

Sadly, like it has been since 2017, that was not the case. For the second time in three years, the Broncos were forced to start three quarterbacks. When the team had Trevor Siemian, Brock Osweiler, and Paxton Lynch, they had three quarterbacks that could not hold on to their jobs.

After a solid start from Siemian, he did not do well and was benched for Osweiler. When Brock could not get the job done, it was Lynch’s turn. But an injury in his first start forced Siemian back in.

This past NFL season, the Broncos had Joe Flacco, Brandon Allen, and Drew Lock. How did each of these three do? Well, let us take a closer look at the performance of these three quarterbacks in 2019.
