    Orton wasn't to blame for their record at all. He played pretty well, but when you're rebuilding then you should probably tear it down and trade what assets you have for guys who can help you 2-3 years in the future. I don't blame Fox because he doesn't want to rebuild for 2-3 years, but that's why they shouldn't have hired him in the first place. Some teams have a down season due to injuries or misfortune and can rebuild very quickly. Neither the Broncos or Panthers fit that bill, in my opinion.

    I was surprised he agreed to sign on with Orton supposedly gone and Tebow in line. But then we've seen that he likes the money, or else he would have resigned here when he had his wings clipped.

    Orton gives them the best chance to win right now. I think Orton has proven himself to be a capable starter. If Fox can work some magic on that defense then they might turn things around quickly. He took our 1-15 team to 7-9 and then to the superbowl.

    1) How does Dareus do in Buffalo since he was my sensible choice for the Panthers 1st pick?

    2) How much impact Julio Jones makes in ATL?

    3) Can ATL come back from that ass whipping the Packers gave them after going 13-3 last year?

    4) Does the bubble burst in Tampa Bay? Is Freeman for real?

    5) Will the Saints take back the NFC South?

    6) Will Mark Ingram make a big splash in the Big Easy? Will he have enough size and speed to get into the end zone?

    7) How long it will take for Fox to replace Orton?

    8) Has Harrison's off-season remarks tainted the Steelers team chemistry?

    9) Will Randy Moss stay retired?

    10) Will the Cowboys continue to suck?

    The Broncos did not go 3-10 because Orton did not play well. There are 10 other guys on offense and 11 on defense plus a bunch of special teams players how have some say over whether games are won or lost.

    In those 13 games Orton threw for 3653 yards, 20 TDs and only 9 Ints and a rating of 87.5 despite being on a bad team.....
