Denver Broncos: 3 Bold predictions vs. Dolphins in Week 13
By Bruce Matson
3. Trevor Siemian Will Be OK
The Broncos’ quarterbacks have a habit of disappointing us on a weekly basis, but Trevor Siemian has a chance to right the ship this week against one of the worst defenses in the league. He should be extra hungry since he was watching Brock Osweiler and Paxton Lynch play over him during the last few weeks.

Siemian has completed 60.8 percent of his passes for 1,818 yards and 11 touchdowns on the season. Right now, he is the best quarterback on the roster. He might not be a top ten NFL quarterback, but he is the best the Broncos have, so the team has to make the best out of what they have on the roster. He finished last season with a 8-6 record as the teams starting quarterback and he’s more than capable of managing the game for the Broncos.
The Dolphins defense is currently struggling which could present a beneficial match up for Simian and might be enough to get him out of the slump that he was playing in earlier this season. If he can elevate his game during the final weeks of the season, then the Broncos will finish the year on a high note.
I don’t think he will light up the score board in this game, but he will be highly efficient, taking the smart option while going through his progressions. I wouldn’t be surprised if he finishes the game with 220 passing yards and two touchdowns on the day while completing around 62 percent of his passes. He shouldn’t pass for less than 200 yards, but I highly double he surpasses the 300-yard mark either.
Bold Prediction: Trevor Siemian passes for at least 220 yards and two touchdowns
