5. Have we seen Trevor Siemian’s ceiling or his floor?
On Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals we saw Trevor Siemian get hot down the stretch and torch a very talented defense in Cincinnati.
Siemian would finish the game 23 for 35 with 312 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions, earning him AFC Offensive Player of the Week honors.
In the fourth quarter of games this season, Siemian is a combined 14 of 20 for 225 yards, with three touchdowns and zero interceptions.
These haven’t been lucky plays, either, nor have we seen Siemian doing anything outside his skill set. He just seems like he gets better in the clutch moments.
So he could continue to get better, and based on that, I do not think we have seen the ceiling of his potential.
But have we seen his floor?
In Week 1 against the Carolina Panthers, he was just 18 of 26 for 178 yards, with a touchdown and two interceptions.
So is that the worst we are going to see from what is basically a rookie quarterback? Or does he still have a few really bad games in him? And when are we going to see them?
It will be up to Gary Kubiak, Rick Dennison and Siemian himself to make sure that he is kept in the best positions to be successful.
If the Broncos can do that, we could be seeing another deep run in the postseason.
