The new coaching staff in Denver does seem to have taken a liking to Osweiler, who is mobile with adequate arm strength. (The widespread notion that he has a "cannon arm" is simply erroneous.) Regardless, Osweiler will start Sunday at Chicago's Soldier Field, and it would not be surprising if he had initial success in a high-percentage Gary Kubiak offense that plays to Osweiler's strengths.
