Plenty on the line for Brock Osweiler tonight against Seahawks
Denver Broncos quarterback Brock Osweiler has a lot to prove tonight against the Seattle Seahawks.
Offensive coordinator Rick Dennison is implementing more rollouts for the Broncos' quarterbacks, and that should benefit Osweiler, who has been stuck behind Peyton Manning for years. Eventually, Manning will have to slow down, likely giving way to Osweiler. However, Zac Dysert and Trevor Siemian should be seeing reps as well tonight, and both have shown glimpses in the preseason. Given the team's current depth at various positions, they'll likely keep only two quarterbacks.
On 32 career drop backs, Osweiler has posted a Passing Net Expected Points score of -2.88, meaning that he kept about a field goal worth of scoring off the board for the Broncos. That puts him below replacement-level. He should still be a lock, given his tenure with the team, but it's interesting nonetheless. Keep a close eye on this situation if you play in dynasty formats.
