McDaniels has 100% confidence in his system. Actually if you listen to this podcast he says "the quarterback in our system is never going to have to go out there and win the game by himself. Never has to, never will"

So you fixed the Defense and didn't downgrade the offense?????

I don't know if the defense is fixed yet... I haven't seen them play. The safeties we had last year were the worst in the NFL, and we brought in Brian Dawkins, Renaldo Hill, and drafted 2 safeties in the 2nd and 4th round.

If Brandon Marshall comes back the offense should be better than it was last year. Orton actually had a higher QB Rating and TD/Int ratio than Jay Cutler had before he got injured in week 8.

For all the missteps Josh McDaniels may have taken this offseason, acquiring Orton in the Jay Cutler deal may prove to be a masterstroke. Orton was en route to an excellent year before hurting his ankle and coming back too early; he had a DVOA of 18.5% before the injury and -22.9% afterwards. It's admittedly difficult to reconcile Orton's pre-2008 persona with the performance level of a franchise quarterback, but ask yourself this: How would Orton be perceived had he not been rushed into action as a rookie? He'd be an emerging star, not a punchline with a half good season to his name. Credit goes to McDaniels and Brian Xanders for judging the player for what he is, not what he once was.

Brian Dawkins = Slower, Older Darren Sharper
Renaldo Hill = Captain Knee Injury
2 Rookie Safeties = 0 Impact 1st year

Still waiting for how you upgraded, looks as if you just got slower?

Please don't doctor facts like you have done with Cutler vs Orton. You don't even believe that Orton is better, no matter how many times you post it here.

Dude we had Marquand Manuel and Marlon McCree as our starting safeties last year. Kyle Lowry and Vernon Fox had to start a couple of games when they were injured... Yes the safety position is improved. Anybody is better than the guys we had last year, especially a safety who made the Pro Bowl last year.

I don't know how the defense will do, but I do know that Mike Nolan is a MUCH better DC than Bob Slowick was.

I would of loved to see Nolan in KC. I'm a little bitter that Denver got him.

What?!

Nolan is a douche. Greg Robinson is Defense Jesus compared to him. Nolan wrecked SF so bad that they actually thought that Mike "Pants Optional" Singletary was worthy of a contract extension.

Pathetic, but good for a laugh.
