Welcome to Our Hoosier Board!

Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions.

Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful.

Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

Cheers,
sirbrianwilson

RBs catch passes fool

i believe he is the leading receiver

and knowing ortons passing limits, its no wonder

hes awful, quite trying to justify it by throwing the receivers under the bus
The fact that Forte is the team's leader in catches says a whole lot about the state of the team's WRs. He isn't awful. He isn't great either. I said he's putting up a solid season, which is what is happening. He's 7-5 and put up average stats.

You need to find something better to do than obsess about Purdue.

Orton is a dink and dunker. Even Loverboy Smith realizes Orton is simply not very bright and must simplify the offense for the corky

So he is supposed to throw downfield when his starting WRs are Brandon Lloyd and Rashied Davis? When your best two targets in the passing game are your TE and RB, you are going to have problems. You dink and dunk when your WRs can't get open downfield.

uh, you're telling me Hester can't get downfield now that he is playing WR?


Loverboy simply doesn't trust Orton to throw downfield for fear of another 5 pick game.

Orton isn't the worst QB in the league, but he's close.

18th in QB rating would put him in the middle third.

Chicago has one of the two or three worst WR cores in the league.

Because Lloyd has only played in 8 games this season. He was on pace for 60 catches, 1000 yards and 4 TDs through Week 4 and then he got hurt and a month and a half and has been a gimp since.

Orton was pretty bad before this season, but has made a lot of progress. As a Bears fan, I'm willing to see if he can continue on his current trajectory, and if so, he'll be a top 10 QB in a couple of years.

Just as there's no question as to who's a better quarterback, there's no question as to who will win this game. saints in a rout.

:cheers: That SLV is some good shit.

Orton 2.0 is serviceable. If he reverts back to Orton 1.0, the Bears will need to continue their 20 year search for a good QB. I still think Orton 3.0 is a realistic possiblity.
