Below average QB's don't do some of the things he has done. Orton was an average QB with the pluses and negatives that come with that title.
Keeping Orton would have been a much better stopgap solution than keeping Cassel and would foster a much better environment to bring along young players at all of our offensive positions.
I don't think anyone here viewed Orton as the answer, just someone we could plug in at QB until we get a guy we can groom in there. Cassel is not even good enough to serve this role.
