Funny thing was, that bum looked like a big league QB in his 3 starts here. Behind a much maligned O-line at that. On his 4th or 5th different OC in a short time. With receivers he barely knew. Without the teams star RB. (All excuses for the Cassel crowd... except for the receivers he barely knew part)
Sure, the Orton haters (Cassel lovers) will point out the 1 TD, 2 INT's stat, but those are nearly as misleading as the 27-7 stat thrown out in Cassels defense. If you were paying attention, the bum Orton clearly could do things the bum Cassel can not.
Now Stanzi is the guy I hope takes over... but if it be Quinn instead... I'm good with that as well. Replacing a bum with another bum might not set the team back at all. It might just be the ticket this team needs to make a push to the upper echelon of NFL teams.

Except that Orton has been HORRIBLE in the Red Zone his whole career. Cassels stats may have been padded by easy touchdowns, but at least he could get them. For some reason, Orton is unable to get a Td inside the 20.
