Schedule release?

So it's a players salary that determines success, not on field accomplishment? Keep making it up as you go along.

What on field accomplishment did Siemian have that gives him the upper hand over a first round pick QB?

You seem to be the one making it up as you go on. Obviously teams prefer to see their first round picks playing, many times they may even start over a better player so they can develop. It would be one thing if Siemian was an awesome QB but his offense kept the team from going forward and the "QB of the future" was supposedly drafted last season.

Also---I am just stating my personal opinion.

If a first round pick is still sitting on the bench in his second season sitting behind an average player, I question him ever living up to his draft status. That goes for any position.

I'm not the one that appointed Siemian as the starter over Lynch. Obviously their coaching staff didn't reach that decision just to perplex you. I'm fine with whatever starter their staff decides to put on the field.

But it's okay if the guy is undrafted, gotcha. I don't disagree.

I could care less about the Broncos. I'm just stating a first round pick should be on the field in their second season unless they are playing behind a great player(Brees/Rivers in SD).

Obviously it's an open competition, Siemian deserves to compete but if Lynch loses again, I will question him living up to his draft status---unless of course Siemian lights the world on fire next season which I doubt.

May I still go to the DAL @ DEN game and assume Siemian will be starting until told otherwise? :rolleyes:

Sure. I wasn't calling you out on assuming he will be the starter. My money would be on Siemian as well. I was just making a comment on how disappointing it would be if Lynch isn't the starter going into his sophmore year.

Confession... I was one of those guys that wanted the Cowboys to draft Lynch 1 yr. ago. I'm immensely happen how things worked out but I still have high expectations for Lynch though I don't think that depends on his starting status when the regular season picks up in September. I'm pretty sure at some point next season he'll get his opportunity.

Last year wasn't much better..

I believe 3 games in a 10 game span? I could be wrong but no wonder why we appeared so sluggish against the Giants.

Indeed.

Logistics are oftentimes an underrated aspect of the game.

Awhile back, one of the stat nerds on here posted the rate of losing experienced by teams when playing 2 or even 3 consecutive road games and it was OBVIOUSLY a huge factor.

Traveling all over the country in a short time frame definitely has an impact on performance.

I'm still salty about the way they did us dirty like that in 2014.

I believe that was the smallest amount of time between 2 games, ever. If not, it has to be close.

I'm almost sure it was when you count travel time getting out of New York City or New Jersey and flying all the way back to Dallas. The Thursday game was probably the worst game we played all year.

Huh?

Romo was an undrafted free agent making pennies. Siemian is making pennies and an average QB. Lynch cost a couple draft picks and is making over 2 million. If he's not the starter by his second season, I have very low hopes he will ever be ready. It would be one thing if Siemian was playing so well you couldn't bench him(See Drew Brees/Phillip Rivers the two years they played together)

I think it is elway who just wants lynch to be groomed before starting him.
When they think he is ready, he will start, and then you will see if he is a bust or not.

Season ticket holders usually throw them up right away. I will probably as well.

Yeah I plan on attending one game, I am trying to avoid the secondary market if I can unless someone sells them at fair market price.

I didn't know how soon after the announcement single tickets goes on sale.
