There is no doubt in my mind that Orton would have just as good if not better numbers if he was put in the same situation as Cassel. Heck Orton was putting up similar numbers with Rashied Davis and Devin Hester as his No 1 and No 2 receivers before he got hurt. Imagine what he could have done with Moss, Welker, Watson, that offensive line, and NE's coaching staff.
