One games doesn't tell the entire story.

Oh I know man. I'm not an Orton fan. I miss Cutler...but all we can do is hope and pray that Orton can get the job done.

well maybe I missed something I only saw one pass to a RB and that was a dump off as he was flushed from the pocket late in the game the RB got like 5-6 yards opposed to a sack..

But then I was only seeing hi lites from the game not every play..

I watched the entire game when it was on (it was on right before the Broncos played the Jaguars).

And I watched the entire game on NFL Replay today.

Whether the Broncos and their fans want to admit it, this is not over, this is an issue that will (And should be) discussed for years to come.......Get used to it!.......

Either way, now you're just playing damage control, because you made two gross assumptions.

I did say MVP of the Broncos: "Franchise Player and MVP".......meaning he was not only the "Franchise Player", but also the "Franchise MVP".......I think the word "and" is the key word you are glossing over, it kinda ties the two together.

It's not a gross assumption to say that he was the teams MVP, the player they could least afford to lose and an Elite QB Talent, it's a fact.......no damage control needed.

Believe me, if I meant to say League MVP, I would not back off an inch.......

Actually the fact that Forte led the Bears in receptions was an indicator that Orton dumped off a lot. Now as to why could be up for discussion.

Because if option #1 isn't open, he dumps off...

Kyle Orton dumps off to his runningback all the time!!

Just follow the link and you'll see. Thank goodness that somebody compiled all of Kyle Orton's bad plays.

true but Forte also lined up as a receiver and played in the slot a lot this year...

King of dump offs= Phillip Rivers.

I don't even need to click on it to know what it is. I can tell by the URL because I have seen it too many times. Shame on you.

Sounds exciting, makes you wonder how he managed a 2.6% Int ratio playing that conservative.......

Out of curiousity I went to check up on Orton's Stats vs .500 or above teams. This chart was done in excel.



Most of those stats should be self explanatory. Consistency is the standard deviation. The smaller the number the more consistent he was (IE he was closer to his average in all of the games). This can be good or bad, if you have a bad average and a good consistency that means you consistently suck. The first rating is the average and the second is the overall. I give both ratings since the total can be effected by one good game.

Take these stats as you will.

And before the whiners get started. Here is Cutler's set too....

Dree Brees

Reggie Bush has how many receptions this quick in his career
