Aside from the number of TDs, I think Clausen had a similar rookie year to Orton.

Orton: 9 TD 13 Int, 5.1 average, 59.7 qb rating. 51.6% completion.

Clausen: 3 TD, 9 Int, 5.2 average, 58.4 qb rating. 52.5% completion.

Difference being the TD number and the sack number. Orton was sacked 30 times in 15 games played. Clausen was sacked 33 times in 13 games played.

Clausen was actually .1 yard more of a rebel than Orton was.

Yeah but you like Cam Newton. :eek:
i like him more than kolb easily. kolb isn't anywhere close to being worth a 1st round pick and i would have a really hard time with giving up a 2nd for him.

newton has a lot more potential and a much higher ceiling. i'd rather tkae a risk and make a bold move with the first than go with some proven mediocre (at best) QB.

it's a good thing TDs aren't all that important around here.

6 TDs are enough of a difference to be sarcastic? Not taking anything away from your boy Orton, just saying, Orton had a very similar rookie year to the one Clausen just had. Orton was even more of a check down king than Clausen was. Look at how Orton was able to improve himself in his 2nd year as a starter and beyond. but, if Orton improved, I don't see why Clausen can't improve himself also. Not saying he will, but who knows?

The Broncos would probably want an arm and a leg for Orton. I'm not sure if he's truly worth any price that may involve our #1 overall pick or one of our few experienced players.

very good example.. who knows how Clausen will improve or ever reach "solid status", but anyone making a final decision based on this year really has no clue..

Kolb beat Atlanta this year and looked good doing it. Andy Reid is really good at coaching up QBs. So I wouldn't rule Kolb out completely.

Delhomme, in the middle of one of the worst meltdowns in nfl history, looked good against the Falcons last season('09). When they had much of the same players on defense. Just saying. I think they're the reason why Fox kept starting Delhomme.

      Deebo wants out of SF, and our current odds are high

      This is from 5 months ago. It was one or the other. Trade for one or draft one. We apparently called the Jets about Wilson. We also talked to the Seahawks about Metcalf. Drafting our own guy was the best course of action given the required investment. Regardless now is the time for Bryce Young to produce. We are fourth amongst all teams in cap spending on the OL. Back to back first round picks at WR and multiple young TE draft picks now. Very solid and respectable backfield. New pieces across the defense. The time is now.

      That was just the worst time to have their worst game of the season. One key deal was the broncos guess the Panthers would NOT change any plays or flow to the game. Another key point overlook that bronco defense was truly one of the best in the NFL history. It was the best defense the Panthers faced that year, by far. They were not ready for it, but broncos were ready for the Panthers. Mix in that bad luck, poor refs showcase, and this is the golden boys last game........ Panthers needed to win by 20 and the broncos defense was not going to allow that.  Panthers were the favorites and I believe they also thought that it was going to easier than them destroying NFC playoff teams as they marched to the SB. I've heard darin Gantt say the play calls were to give remmers help, but for some reason the team never did it. During the year they never had that problem, so maybe never practiced giving help via TE/RB, or WR chip. Cam was superman that year, no need for any adjustments...... Until you meet a legendary defense with studs at all levels, Think about it, Peyton was throwing wingless dunks for the whole season, the defense had to carry his corpse to the SB. That's how good they were, not many defense are able to get to the playoffs and win a SB without decent QB play. If you recall the beginning of that defense took Tim Teblows and his non-throwing arse to the playoffs couple years before. That's insane the level of defense needed to overcome.
