Biggest thing to me that kinda links Cousins and Carr to Lock is the poor decision making when any type of pressure is applied to him. He just turns to shit and everything falls apart for him.
I think Spags knew that too. All of those blitzes really made Lock nervous and highlighted this.
The Broncos were smart to give Glasgow big money and draft Cushenberry. They are going to have to find a competent LT though bc Lock’s success will be heavily tied to his protection.

That should have been the focus of the last few drafts... thankfully, they've done a much better job of addressing the OL the last two years. It doesn't matter what Lock's upside is if the OL sucks.
And, with all the BS going on the last 4 months, it's been hard to get too excited about football. I have this concern that they will pull the plug on it, hopefully not.
I'll get excited about it once we see camps and things taking place and the noise about C19 subsides. Weird times indeed as we've had 4 months of life without sports essentially. I'm ready for back to normal and actually having something to talk about regarding football, right now it's just a big void.
