Can Kyle Orton be like Andy Dalton?

Whenever a new quarterback is thrust into a starting role – one that is not considered the next Manning, Brady or Rodgers – the question is: Can this QB lead Team X to the playoffs?

 

Ten years ago, you might have heard, “If Trent Dilfer could win a Super Bowl…” meaning that Dilfer was the baseline for the worst possible NFL quarterback that a team could win with. Today, the comparison is a little different, but with the same theme in mind.

Can he be an average QB who chokes in big games? Sure, why not.

Um, Andy Dalton has beaten Orton's career high in tds in 2 of his 4 years and was one off he other year and has 5 games this year. Plus he like 5 years younger.

 

Dalton >> Orton

I think he is better than Dalton except mobility.

 

On another subject, what's up with your boy Kaep? He's looking pretty bad these days.

All he has to be is Trent Dilfer.

 

Our OL needs to keep up the improvements and Freddie needs to stay healthy for passing down blitz pickups/screens.

 

Our D will supply us with stops, turnovers and intimidation.

 

These things together supply us with all we need to win out…..just limit the costly mistakes.

I hope this unit can at least be decent in both the run game and pass pro since the tougher defensive fronts are already in the rear view mirror.

Stats are for losers. Losers like Dalton. He has entire games where he doesn't even show up.

 

True but he's already had a better career than Kyle Orton.

His throws to Woods-- a third down late in the pocket throw, the earlier back shoulder, and the TD toss were all-pro reads.

 

He's a professional NFL quarterback who knows very well the players and coaches he's competing against. We're lucky to have him.
