Kyle Orton NFL & AFL Football Statistics - Pro-Football-Reference.com

He's improved his Chicago numbers with Denver, but not exactly sure what he ranks highly in that would make you call his numbers "big time". He hasn't turned the ball over much, I suppose.

And you may be the first person to ever use "big arm" to describe Kyle Orton. He's neither strong armed, nor accurate, and his arm tends to fail him after about 350 or 400 throws in a season.

Orton is the perfect NFL backup quarterback, and is worth acquiring at the level of a 7th round pick.

What % of fans would you say are firm supporters of him?

70-75 easly but as with Redskin fans......when do you ask them?(before or after a win or a loss)

.. He's just not an elite QB that's all I was saying..

With the way Kitna is playing maybe you guys can get Romo.

I could only hope that would come true.

Ortons arm is better than u think tripp, I saw him throw a couple 50 plus yard td bombs in Denver.

SirClintonPortis · 12-28-2010, 02:28 PM

Tuesday football....it's only been a little more than 64 years.

This season's been freaking crazy with unexpected crap. Arian Foster, Randy Moss, McNabb, Vick, etc.

firstdown · 12-28-2010, 02:34 PM

I love to see the Vikes kick their ass but I'm think Vick and company will win this game in the first half.

tryfuhl · 12-28-2010, 10:30 PM

Vick has thrown about 5 balls that should've been picked. One of them was, a couple dropped, one offensive pass interference

oh look.. they just stripped him and took it for a TD

he's not helping his MVP chances with this game

MTK · 12-28-2010, 10:32 PM

Eagles are sleep walking through this one so far

skinsfaninok · 12-28-2010, 10:56 PM

This Webb kid isn't that bad.

S.Rice is just a really good player, I wish we could get that dude

skinsfaninok · 12-28-2010, 10:57 PM

Viks are showing how to frustrate Vick.. He's playing like crap

Consider the altitude. I'm not sure why his arm strength is that relevant anyway, he's been a pretty good player in the Broncos spread system, but certainly not a great player, and I think he's rated about properly.

The Broncos reamed the Bears in the Orton-Cutler deal, but they pissed away most of the draft picks immediately. Orton can start about 10 games per year max, so acquiring him as a backup makes a lot of sense.

skinsfaninok · 12-28-2010, 11:17 PM

how bout those Viks?

skinsfaninok · 12-28-2010, 11:19 PM

The EAGIRLS D will keep them out of the SB. It's almost as bad as out D
