No - if you've read anything that I've ever typed in the last 18 months, I haven't knocked Orton's ability or his performance in 2010. Orton is playing very well and I thought that he always had that ability, granted I didn't expect this consistency with these WRs.
Denver cannot run the ball - bottom line. They have spare to fair guys in the rotation, Moreno has not shown that he can be an elite player yet and the OL is a young an inexperienced work in progress.
Twitter quotes like the one you last provided drive me a bit crazy because it means nothing... now, each of those 3 previous examples were really good QBs, playing on really good teams that wound up with very nice records (if I'm not mistaken).
It sounds like (to me) that you're posting that Twitter stuff as a validation for Denver and a sign of things to come. I've read your stuff and I know that I jump on you at times, but it's only because you seem to be a bit disconnected from reality.
It's fine to be a gung-ho and even over the top fan... go for it, but posting Twitter blurbs from some random Joe Blow and making comments that sound like you really believe the team is "that close" to being a deep playoff contender... well, it's maddening at times.
Ok, this is when VailPass jumps in with his 'uncle tom' nonsense and that's fine... last year, if you recall - you had a hard fall after the final KC game, much like Buck seems to do every season now in January.
Just learn from it ... take things in stride, hope for the best and be pleasantly surprised when things go right. I lived and died with this team back in my teens and early 20s... it hurt bad at times, esp those SB losses. I just don't do that anymore... things are prioritized a bit differently for me. Granted, the late 90s success went a long way towards bringing peace in my sports life.
Ok - carry on.
