maddenboy Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Kyle Orton is dead to me. I'm not reading any more of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuntheDamnBall Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 It's respectable that Kyle Orton is a family man and probably didn't want to damage his body while considering retirement. For my team, though, that is a really tough pill to swallow. Even a supposedly cerebral guy like Fitz lays his body on the line with regularity. I am not asking anyone to be stupid, but I do want to see my QB take risks, and I saw less and less of that as the season progressed. There's probably a multi-part answer to why - the O-line woes, a decreasing desire, wishes for long-term health - but I think those overrode any supposed differences in philosophy with a coach who pretty clearly wanted him to be part of the picture.

BADOLBILZ Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 I think we now know why Orton has left so many fanbases both laughing at him and hating him. He is a flaky/sketchy character. His story this year, a slack jawed brown liquor drinking ball deliverer taking one more job to pocket $5M and then unexpectedly becoming thrust into a competitive situation he wasn't expecting by a tomato head Doug Marrone would make a good direct to Netflix football movie.

TSOL Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 I think Orton and Marrone were perfect for each other. A match made in heaven. Both takin a slow easy cruise down the road of mediocraty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
