Fox asked if Orton "gives Chiefs best chance to win"
 
Earlier in the year, before Tebow was starting, John Fox kept saying Orton "gives us the best chance to win." When asked if Orton gives the Chiefs the best chance to win, he said, "that's funny." But he wasn't smiling. Denver fishwraps really questioning Elroy's decision 2 waive Orton.

If Kyle Orton and the Chiefs win Sunday, the Broncos' releasing of Orton on Nov. 22 will go down as one of the franchise's all-time boneheaded personnel moves.

Orton is a mediocre QB.

The only boneheaded move would be to go into next season with Tim TeBow as their uncontested starter.

That's an improvement from what we had. :doh!:

If we win, it doen't mean that releasing Orton was a dumb move. It just means we were the better team that day. I'd take Tebow over Orton any day of the week

I didn't watch the Bills game clsoely, but every time I turned to it late in the game, it appeared the Bills eschewed a prevent D in favor of tight man coverage on the outside with a cover 2 over the top.

It forced TeBow to make reads and accurate throws, and he was just awful.

Orton is mediocre, but TeBow has no business lining up behind center in the NFL.

2011 4th quarter comebacks and game winning drives:

Tebow - 5
Orton - 0

But for Tebow, Denver doesn't control their own destiny with the playoffs on the line.

Somebody PLEASE explain this to ESPN, so they'll stop sucking his schlong.Teblow gets way too much credit for the effort of the team around him. Denver wins in spite of Teblow, not the other way around.

I don't think it was a coincidence that Elfway cut Orton the same week Cassel gets put on IR from a "hand injury". I think Elfway took a chance that KC would pick him up knowing the way of the Chiefs is going with the retread & that takes KC out of the big picure of finding a QBotf via draft.

I wouldn't be surpised this draft that Horseface leaps over us to snag another QBotf right before our pick. I don't think he is content with the Tebow as there trusted QB to take them to the Super Bowl.

Damn I hate Horseface! If anything he does not want Chiefs getting a QBotf that he has to deal with for the next 10 years. Just my theory on it.

Elway's evil plan as come full circle
Apease the fans & play Tebow to lose for a real QB in the draft
Orton knocks them out of the playoffs & he can blame the fan's love for Tebow WINNING

Run the ball, control the clock, play defense and keep the game close.

Any QB can pick apart a prevent defense.

if you are keeping the game close, why would the other team be running a "prevent defense" ????
