Would you trade Tyler Thigpen for Kyle Orton straight up?
 

I wouldn't. I wouldn't touch that turd with a 10 foot pole. How about you? Let's let the Donko homers know where we stand on their shitty quarterback.

No

No, probably not. Thigpen brings "Wildcat" potential for us where Orton wouldn't bring anything.

Hell no.

ROFL

I know when someone is trying to bait me.

Not no, but hell no. Seen enough of Orton when he was up here, he had a hard time competing with Rex Grossman.

I would be crushed when Thigpen scrambles around aimlessly for 30 seconds and wings a no-look side-arm pass to Marshall for the game winner.

i wouldn't trade aids straight up for orton

negative. rather have thiggy on the bench than orton...

No one's baiting you. We're just telling you that your QB sucks.

ROFL

You know I'm good with you homeboy. This is just some rival banter. :D

no

How would a woman know if a QB sucks or not?

Depends what kind of team you are building. I don't like Orton at all, but I'll say this for him, he's shown the moxie in the past of being able to win games with the Bears, so in that sense he's a bit more of a proven commodity that Thigpen. But I don't think he's better than Cassel or brings anything more to the table. Thigpen, while pretty inconsistent last year, has shown flashes and brings that different element to the table, but I'm not real enamored with him either. He's fallen down to third string this offseason thus far, so how much does he really want it? Seems to me like he may have just resigned himself or settled with the fact that he was going to be a backup and didn't come into the preseason program ready to compete. Not sure if that's the guy I want leading the team...

Same way a man would.

Yes. Orton is reasonably accurate and his three-pick game is being overblown. He's never been a turnover-prone QB.

Thigpen...unreasonably inaccurate and has always been turnover prone.

I would. Orton would be much more versatile than Thigpen would. If I'm looking for a decent backup QB, I'd rather have one that didn't require a custom offense installed just to be somewhat productive....

Yep. Not even Tom Brady or Peyton Manning have thrown 205 consecutive passes without an INT like Orton did last year.

In 2008, Orton and Thigpen both had 12 INT. Of course, Orton had more attempts. YPA is almost equal, with Orton having the slight advantage. Both threw 18 TD's, and Orton got sacked one more time than Thigpen. They actually look pretty closely matched according to stats. Of course, Orton has a few more years experience in the NFL.

It's pretty much an irrelevant conversation.

If your starting quarterback is named Thigpen OR Orton...you're ****ed.

Can he return punts...er.. .kickoffs?

Orton had an 89.1 QB Rating before he hurt his ankle week 8 last year. He was injured the entire second half of the season.

LMAO Now that would be baiting.

ROFL

:D:clap:

We'll find out how good or bad Orton is when he's asked to win games this year.

My guess is that his ints go up and his rating goes down,

Hell no. Thigpen actually has the better arm and is more athletica and can make plays with his legs better than a lot of starting QB's around the league.

Nope. Thignpen has more upside....and burst. :)

No

I'd trade KnoMo straight up for him :shrug:

Uh hell no.

I would, but only because if it happened, knowmo would come here telling us all about how much better Thigpen is than Orton the second Thigpen became a Donkey.

And that would give me a nice laugh, just like all of his other posts.

huh? turnover prone? you sure about that?

Luv lays the smacketh down. ROFL

if i were you i wouldnt debate ANYONE right now, in fact i cant really believe that you are still here posting

Yes. Without thinking twice.

Definitely. Orton is a solid backup, Thigpen is useless.

Thigpen has more upside. Orton has peaked. Both may turn out to be names forgotten in five years; but, Thigpen has more athleticism. With more experience, he could make fewer mistakes.

Even if objectively, Orton is the better player, but is somehow not working out in Denver, why would you want to trade for them and change the dynamic in Denver?

Awesome avi.
