Re: Someone please make a case for Orton/EJ
I don't know man. Orton is really bad. I don't know where people get the idea he is average. He misses a lot of incredibly easy reads and passes, even when not under duress. That isn't the OC/scheme or OL, that is just a bad QB. They have had plenty of time to adjust the offense, and I don't even think the scheme would be that different. It's not like EJ played with that much mobility or was playing that differently.
EJ was a long shot from day one and he is still a long shot. An injured RGIII has a better shot of making a comeback than EJ has of becoming a starter. At least RGIII has done it before.
Nobody is saying that the new guy has to start. Trade a 2nd and bring him in. If he doesn't play then he doesn't play and we'll know for sure at that point, but at this point we are an OG and a QB away from contention. To "stay the course" would be ridiculous.
