Siemian completed 25 of 40 passes for 258 yards, two touchdowns and two picks in Sunday's win over the Saints.
When he was on, Siemian was deadly accurate and helped lead Denver to the comeback win. He also played a huge role in handing New Orleans the lead, with two truly awful forced throws that were intercepted and a handful of others that weren't. There was some debate as to whether Siemian would retain the starting job over rookie Paxton Lynch after the bye. Sunday likely pushed those conversations to a later date, but if Siemian retains the starting job something will have to be done to help him against the rush. The young quarterback was harassed by New Orleans' rush to the tune of six sacks and several of Siemian's errant throws were influenced by the rush. A few of those sacks were due to poor pass protection or blitzes that weren't picked up. There were also times where Siemian seemed to drop too far back or step too far up in the face of the rush, doing his blockers no favors.
