i havent been expecting much from kyle orton so far, but i have to admit this audio interview by murph of former offensive coordinator Ron Turner has got me pumped. the next audio is reuben, who also has me feeling a little better about his prospects here

[Mr. Miyagi]

Sounds good but really what else were they going to say? Sorry but you guys are screwed one way or another?

[starrymessenger]

Orton is the next Rich Gannon.

Even if Orton played like an average NFL QB that would be a big upgrade. Let face it. EJ does not look NFL ready and was one of the worst QBs in the league over the first four weeks. Maybe only Geno Smith played worse as an aggregate. Throw in an average QB and I think you see a much better offense.

id be curious to know if ron turner felt his offense was similar to hacketts. apologies if it was in link, didn't get a chance to look

Orton is the next Rich Gannon.

I'm hoping.

If the OL gets the running game going and can protect, we could have a very good offense.

They could say nothing

[Pinkerton Security]

Orton is the next Rich Gannon.

uh I sure hope so. 4 straight pro bowls, 3 all pro selections and a Super Bowl berth? ILL TAKE IT

[justasportsfan]

They could say nothing

or that he loves Jack Daniels

[Pinkerton Security]

What I take away from this article is really what we all already knew - this is a guy who can go through his progressions and make the correct read, and make solid throws. he isnt going to be mistaken for Aaron Rodgers but if we can protect the guy he can get the ball to our play makers, which is what was sorely missed with EJ under center

[Meathead]

i always said the earliest we could get any real read on ej was after four games, and then it would take two real stinkers in a short span to yank him

check. and check.

ej simply is not ready. thats fine if this team was full of suck and four wins gets your qb the hard knocks experience he needs. but not when the rest of your team is playoff caliber and youve got a seventy game starter on your bench

ive really been expecting orton to just not suck, to be able to reliably complete standard nfl level throws. ej wasnt doing that two of the four games, so even just a baseline of production from orton would be an upgrade

right now i guess im starting to drink the kool-aid. and maybe it dont taste half bad

All after many thought he should retire.

What I take from it is that he's got Fitzy smarts and gravitas, but with an NFL arm.

[The Jokeman]

Orton is the next Rich Gannon.

I don't think he's as athletic as Gannon. Maybe another Chris Chandler?

Hes a drunk and he was born surly.
My kinda guy.

If we have a very good offence we probably win the Division championship.

[better days]

They could say nothing

Or they could say sorry, but you guys are screwed.

[JJamezz]

They probably would've declined the interview.

[YardRat]

Hopefully he gets rid of the ball quickly, otherwise the oline might get him killed. If he can improve even marginally over EJ on the mid-range throws, it might help call off the dogs on the pass rush and back somebody out of the box to help FJ and CJ. My biggest concern is still the interior of the offensive line.
