The Facts: Sanders is a great receiver. He's also smart. With a full-blown, 50-50 quarterback competition in Denver, Sanders knows not to pick a horse for fear of saddling up with the wrong one. "It really doesn't matter to me, honestly," Sanders told reporters on Monday, specifically in response to the question of whether he minds the competition going down to the wire.
Diehards Line:And then came the point in the media availability where Sanders made sure he sucked up equally to Trevor Siemian and Paxton Lynch. “I think both of them have what you look for,” Sanders said. “They both have the confidence, they both have a presence and they both can throw the ball. They can make every single throw: deep ball, short, out, all across the field. I think we’re sitting here right now in a good position with two guys that are hungry, that want to be starters and that want to be franchise quarterbacks that believe in themselves. Every year it’s the same answer. The best guy is going to show. ...” As PFT suggested, the sooner that guy stands out, the better the Broncos offense will be.
