I don't think anyone said that honestly. Flacco was the bridge and it made sense but, he stunk, badly. Had Lock not gotten hurt, Allen would never of even been a Bronco, yet alone gotten 3 starts.
Lock was always the QBoF Hopeful.

And now Elway and Co will trumpet that BS line about him not being ready before. He was ready, they didn't want to play him cause Elway thinks rookie QB's need to sit.
But I don't fault him too much for wanting to kick off the season with a vet. It's the way he handled the rookie in the process that was the problem. Developing Lock was priority #1. And we treated it like an afterthought for most of the season.

Kids these days are super smart and there’s better technology around them now, than there was then, so the tools for learning and developing players are top of the shelf right now.
They no longer need to sit and learn, they can now learn as they play as the mental part of the game is not as tough to learn, as it is to be physically able to play the game and develop their skills and talents.

However, what rookie coach wants to go into his first season with a rookie QB, a crappy OL, and really only Lindsay & Sanders as any real talent, as Sutton’s rise was an unknown at that time. Not to mention, Fangio knew he had to teach a new defensive scheme, and completely revamp the secondary. But no matter, it’s Lock Time now, and they can use the remaining season figuring out the young guys, and what will be the priorities for next offseason.
