... but can he do it without himself as QB?

 

Historical analogy: After he retired Stan Musial was hired as a batting coach, but he did it all so naturally that he was more or less incapable of training anyone how to hit.

 

If memory serves Musial had a rather unorthodox batting stance.  That was really only something he could do with consistently to begin with, so it would be doubly hard.

That's a valid concern. Peyton was most successful when he got to the line of scrimmage, read the defense, and changed the play call. Hard to do that from the booth.

...and the Donkeys have their first seven-game losing streak in half a century.

 

Paxton Lynch clearly wasn't ready to come back. Trevor Siemian looked like an actual NFL quarterback out there in the 4th quarter, though. Odd.

 

My guess is that Denver has three new quarterbacks in training camp come next summer.

Just 6 Seahawks penalties for 35 yards today. Amazing how much easier it is to watch this team when you’re not cringing in expectation of a flag after every play.

 

No obvious injuries accumulated, either.  OTOH, it's now death march time, with Philly, Jacksonville, the Rams, and Cowboys-with-Ezekiel-Elliott-back in the next few weeks.

Never would've imagined such a thing back in August.

Aqib Talib may be a shutdown corner, but that doesn't help the team if he's not playing. He just got himself suspended for two games because he couldn't keep his hands off Michael Crabtree's chain.

 

I wonder who he'll be playing for next season.
