Thanks for proving my point. I'm not gonna turn this into another Orton indictment other than to say that drafting/reaching for Tebow was the result of everyone's dissatisfaction with who fans, even before the draft called "3 and out Orton" When a guy comes up short with sub 60QBRs in crunchtimes like the 4th qtr or career 3rd downs, as Broncos fans point out, he contributes to his own defense's demise.
My contention is the eagerness to indict Henne with a 13-14 2 year record and with Henning instead of Josh McDaniels calling the plays, with no regard to the momentum killing wildcats, porous O Line and ineffectual running games, while rationalizing Orton's 10-17 record, and unacceptable crunchtime QBR as having a bad defense and the fact even more fans wanting him gone as "clamoring for Tebow" just underscores the Rainmanish agenda on anything Henne and the sugarcoated vacuum vision on "it's everyone's fault but Orton's" Inconsistency, hypocrisy, subjectivity, or whatever, I will continue to point out the misplaced arrogance of thinking that the majority of the fins fan base is smarter than the majority of the Broncos' fanbase. It is what it is :idk:
I dont disagree that Henne has gotten more blame than he probably deserves. We all seen how bad the offense was with Pennington at QB before getting hurt in '09. The play-calling and philosophy would've made it tough on any QB to succeed especially when you consider we lacked any kind of speed on offense last year. The running game sucked as well. So I agree with you there. I'm just saying just because 90% of Bronco fans dont want Orton doesnt mean the guys a terrible QB. Just like a lot of fans want or will want Moore to play the second Henne struggles just because he's not Chad Henne. 90% of Bronco fans not wanting Orton to start just tells me that 90% of fans either dont know what the hell they're talking about, want Tebow to start regardless, or want to lose as many games as possible this year to get a franchise QB next year. When I hear an over-whelming majority of fans would rather have Tebow start over Orton my first thought is "those fans are clueless and/or have agendas"...I dont think "oh ha...I knew Orton sucked"...
