    Default Successful Orton: "Happy they stuck with me"

    The Denver Post

    In his Aug. 14 preseason debut as the Broncos quarterback, Kyle Orton threw interceptions on his first three possessions. Two months later, Denver is 5-0 and Orton has been named AFC offensive player of the week.

    "There was a lot made out of our first preseason game," Orton said today at his weekly press conference. "Looking back, I'm happy they stuck with me, had confidence in me. That obviously does a lot for a quarterback."

    Orton's first AFC weekly honor came after he completed 35-of-48 passes for 330 yards with two touchdowns and a 96.7 QB rating in Denver's 20-17 overtime win against New England on Sunday. His two TD drives featured at least 10 plays and covered

    Denver Broncos more than 90 yards, including a 12-play, 98-yarder late in the fourth quarter that forced overtime.

    "It was a special win, a special week," Orton said.

    Orton, who was acquired from Chicago for disgruntled QB Jay Cutler, said he always thought he would fit in nicely with the Broncos.

    "I thought from Day One that this was a great fit for me," he said. "I had a lot of confidence when the trade happened. I was excited about the trade and what I, and we, could do in this system."

    Orton is the Broncos' 44th AFC offensive player of the week winner.

    I have to wonder how an unnamed QB feels now with the City of DENVER, State of Colorado embracing his replacement like it is....

    Glad to have you too, Kyle. It could have been worse. Quinn? Cassel? Cuter?
