Thread: Broncos All-Time Underrated and Overrated.

How could a guy have double digit sacks 5 years in a row and not make a Pro Bowl?? He's not even in the Ring of Fame!!

Now, that is underrated my friends.

post of the thread. he's probably a top ten broncos player - ever. and yet, many fans don't ever think of him.

Yea, but BTB doesnt obsess about anybody...errr....wait....

the most underrated player ever to don a Broncos uniform is Kyle Orton.

This guy was pillaged from the moment he stepped off the plane from Chicago.
Was he Peyton Manning or John Elway? Not only no, but hell no. But he
showed what he could do during the only 11 games he was healthy in 2010.
During that stretch, he averaged 306 yards a game, passing for 20 TDs
against 6 INTs, for a 96.0 passer rating. People point to the 4-12 year, that
year, but they conveniently ignore that the Broncos had the last place
defense and near last place running game.

Orton's main weakness is he could not stay healthy, and the Broncos need
quarterbacks who can stay healthy. But he did his job, if only for 11 games.

:I will not answer any responses to this. I will not. I will not: ​

Oh Top, 2 steps forward, 10 steps back.... lol

Not nearly as much as you obsess over me.

Ok, that AND he's a ginormous bag of douche.

Kyle Orton was both, he was overrated til they drafted Tebow, instantaneously Orton became underrated. Proving, yet again, that Broncos fans really know their QB's.

Jaded's obsession with Tebow is underrated. Seriously dude, let it go. I swear you could figure out a way to link our Jax loss to Tebow. Holy shit, I think you may have a problem.

Aw, Chaz, leave him alone. Shoot, he's the last guy to salute me.

After my Orton comment, they're getting kind of scarce . . .

What are you talking about, that was a rip on Broncos fans, not Tebow. In no way, shape or form was that a shot at Tebow. Orton was actually considered a starter until they drafted Tebow by nearly everyone, afterwords he was every Broncos fans punching bag. This is 100% true. Holy shit is right, totally holy shit.

Btw, why would I let it go if it still gets the reaction I am aiming for?
