Orton’s No Savior

by No Call, No Show

January 8, 2010

A certain fan from Green Bay has commented that the Chicago Bears savior isn’t Jay Cutler, but a certain bearded wonder known as  Kyle Orton.  She went on to say that even Brian Urlacher agrees with this.  Well, I hate tou burst your little cheese bubble, but I couldn’t disagree with you more.  Kyle Orton is an extremely limited QB, with no scramble ability, and his accuracy doesn’t stretch past 10 yards.  Denver’s fall from 6-0 all the way to 2-8 the rest of the way is proof of this.  Where as if Jay Cutler was on Denver this season they win 10-11 games and are in the playoffs.  The Bears had one of the bottom 3 OL, worst rushing attack, and essentially 4 rookie WR’s, so of course you would want to blame Jay Cutler for the mess that is known as the Chicago Bears. 

I have made the analogy that the Bears coaching staff and many others are stuck in Tecmo Bowl play calling in a Madden world.  The old school philosophy is that you run the ball, protect the football and play great defense to win games.  I 100% believe this style of football will NEVER win a Super Bowl again.  The 2000 Ravens will be the last team who has a game manager QB (like Orton) to win the Super Bowl strictly with defense.  Even the Steelers last season had a great defense, but needed a miracle from Ben “I have the largest head of all time” Roethlisberger to win it last year.

In closing this, my ultimate point is that Jay Cutler is the future of the Chicago Bears, and is in fact the Bears “Savior” as Packerland liked to dub it.  Kyle Orton may not even be starting next season, and I don’t know many saviors that were benched behind Rex Grossman, and might be behind Chris Simms next season.

    We will never agree on anything NFC North related, but we will always have Ben Roethlisberger.

    Wait a second I just caught the last line there. Trust me, Homer, no one will be starting behind The Severed Spleen ever. Except me at the beginning of my new Disney movie where I win a chance to suit up as 4th QB from a radio contest, and as the planets align, I get my opportunity when Chris Simms gets knocked out in the first play of the Stupendous Bowl and I go on to carry the Arlington Road Runners to Stupendous Bowl glory over the Wilmington Dynamos and in doing so, my wife comes back to me and my children no longer think I'm a loser night stock boy at the local Ed's Grocery Shed. Then we all get down to Joe Esposito's "You're The Best Around"!

  6. The custom term paper creating can’t constantly be a fun. The custom writing can utilize a lot of time. We would suggest to buy customized reports and essays. I do think that it is the proper way.

  8. Wow, very interesting article. It’s funny how history can be twisted in so many different ways. These photos certainly give us clues, but I guess we’ll never know the true story. . . .
