So at the Broncos game...

[Ronin13]

Got a ticket with my brother to go to MNF against the Raiders last night and missed the 9/11 tribute because parking sucks near [Whatever sponsor of the year it is] Field at Mile High. But did catch an awesome display by the USMC Silent Drill Team, flipping M1s, doing precision marching, and other neat things. Really inspiring. Then Kyle Orton put on a real shit show and proved he doesn't really have a whole lot of passion for the game. Not to mention it just POURED on us and I was soaking wet all night. I would have rather we won and be soaking wet than a loss and have salt rubbed into the wound by being soaked.
First game at the new[ish] stadium. Had fun, but would rather have seen a win and see Orton hold onto the ball!

I,ve never been impressed with Orton.

so lets break it down again:

orton throws for over 300 yds in the air, and puts up 30% of our rushing yards on his own and now its his fault we lost,

what a joke. he cannot win when the front line is letting every player on the other team have a shot at him, i think he was sacked five times last night, and hit at least 25

the front line cannot make a hole for a running back to save their lives. the running back combined for 25 yards on the ground. how is any quarterback expected to win with that kind of performance from the rest of the offense.

the broncos have a lot of issues in their team that are causing them to lose

Orton is not the reason they suck.

But it's so easy to blame the QB! I mean we have the 'awesomeness' of Tebow on the sidelines... /barf.

Orton is just a fine QB.. you give him protection and he does fine. Only way the O-line can protect him is by holding..and they did a FINE job of that last night...

What was the total penalty count last night? Probably more than the total offense from the donkies.

Last year it was the coaches fault, this year it's the QBs fault.. when are they going to learn that pointing fingers and blaming does no good.. they need to play AS a team.. Leave their egos in the locker room.

Elway running things seems to be working well... The broncos have never been a winning team.. at least not a superbowl winning team. They came together for 2 years and won rings.. but were shit before and shit after.. it had nothing to do with one man... It was the WHOLE team.

My thoughts exactly. Orton is not the problem.

[Ronin13]

All valid points, but the difference between Tebow and Orton is intensity and passion. I was more thinking he's not to blame due to his skills last night, but his passion and drive. Tebow will huddle up, call a play and grab Moreno by the facemask and say "I'm gonna feed you the ball, bust it out there and get a fuckin' first down!" Orton would be: "Curls out 25 on two... go."

Heart and passion are great but my money is on Orton to actually get the first down.

[Byte Stryke]

we lack running game
we lack a strong defense
we lack discipline.

There we WAY too many flags last night... and way too many were ours.
keep your head , stay focused on the task at hand.

Orton was a small percentage of the problems we had last night. Yes he made mistakes, but he wasn't solely responsible for the game.

[Graves]

My thoughts exactly. Orton is not the problem.

He did fk a couple key plays. No, he's not the only problem, there were quite a few dropped passes that should have been caught, our line couldn't keep them out of the pocket, and tackling - had to be a group effort every fricken time.

I agree.
