Now we get to the quarterback that a lot of Broncos Country believes shows a lot of promise going forward. I will admit, when the Broncos drafted him, I was not a fan because of the tape I saw. But he did have me thinking that the team has some more promise going into the 2020 offseason.

Drew Lock came into the final five games of the 2019 season like he wanted to prove that he could be a solid quarterback and give John Elway the thought that he should be the 2020 Week one starting quarterback.

His best game was against the AFC South winners. He came into Houston that day and dominated on offense from start to near finish. Perhaps Denver thought 38 points in the first 35 minutes or so in the game was enough.

But there is no denying that this guy could be the answer. His only loss came against the team that would go on to win it all. But perhaps there is a chance that the Lock vs. Mahomes matchups could be fun once Drew gets some more game experience.

His five game stretch was impressive and therefore should get a solid grade.

Grade: B
