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

yeah 20-29 2 TDs is pretty shabby.

His only INT on the year was a heave at halftime that was picked by RANDY MOSS.

He's far from "blowing"

when all you do is throw safe screens and dump patterns that WR gains Yards after catch its pretty easy to manage a game and have pretty stats.

Denver is winning because of their defense and running game. Orton blows

You call that pass to Sheffler for a touchdown a safe pass? More like a perfect throw, but Im sure he got lucky and threw that one with his eyes clothes or something like that since he is from Purdue.

Orton has been much better than expected. All of the experts are singing his praises now, but am I the only one that realizes Denver's offense is worse than it was last year? And Chicago's offense is better than last year. The Orton lovefest needs to cool down a bit.

I agree it's gone a bit overboard, but irregardless of where he went to college it's nice to see a guy/team that everyone said was going to fail and fail spectacularly prove people wrong.

So far every week has been the week when the Bronco's finally blow it or the week that Orton goes back to his old self and it hasn't happened yet. They are the most fun kind of team to pull for.

The Broncos lost five games last year by two touchdowns or more...it certainly helps to pad your stats when you are throwing against prevent defenses.

The major difference between Denver last year and this year is the defense....but to think there is no relationship between the offense and defense isn't correct. It most certainly helps the defense out when the offense isn't turning the ball over. Orton's turned it over once all season. Cutler turned it over 20 times last year.

Orton has averaged 7.55 yards per throw in Denver; Cutler averaged 7.35 there last year. If Cutler was a pro bowl quarterback when he was there, then Orton most definitely is.

Don't know if you caught this, but during the Atlanta game after Cutler had thrown an interception in the red zone, but that was his seventh int in the red zone in the past season and a half. No other QB has more than 3 during that span.

That's true and Cutler's gun slinging ways also meant more big plays, faster scores and less rest for the defense. The sustained drives Orton puts together (along with the fewer turnovers) helps the defense rest. I'm just saying it's not like Denver now has some great offense with Orton that they didn't have before.

The point is that if Jay Cutler was a pro bowl quarterback last year, that Kyle Orton is this year. And, BTW, there are three QBs named to the All-Pro team, not two.

There really isn't anything that says otherwise....Orton has a higher completion rate, higher YPP, higher TD%, and lower INT% than Cutler had in Denver last year.

My point is that Jay Cutler truly wasn't a Pro-Bowl caliber QB last year. He was the 16th rated QB last year, just like he's the 16th rated QB this year...and this year that's more impressive because he doesn't have the same group of recievers he had.
