kyle orton is mediocre (ranked 16th is passer rating).
which is a huge improvement over the awful EJ (ranked 30th in passer rating).
having said that, for a veteran, orton makes a lot of mental mistakes that lead to big negative plays (sacks, fumbles), as evidenced by his poor QBR rating of rank 28th (EJ was 32nd). it's been awhile since ive seen a QB under pressure, go down so easily as compared to other qb's.
