Really? I think most of the board considers him to be one of the best backups in the NFL and is very happy with him. I don't really recall hearing a lot of other talk, but maybe I'm wrong?

Seems that went over everybody's head. They've been programmed by the mediots to believe that there is no leadership on this team. Instead we get 2 pages about Marty B in a Hanna thread.

Hanna is lucky that he has some unique physical tools, but so did Bennett. Phillips was never going to be anything more than a role player, I have no idea what people saw there other than the fact that he wasn't Bennett.
If Hanna is in as the 3rd receiver I think he will get his chances.

One thing for sure , he can run...

I like Orton. He's value doesn't just rest on his ability to play QB

Turn that frown upside down.
We need wins, and that's all we need. I don't give a damn about anyone on this roster over wins. I'd trade Ware, Lee and Dez if it meant more wins.

what i wouldn't give for this man to get a shot at being the starter for us next season!kyle orton is a professional qb, ive it said for months now.

you guys have no clue how much this man would change the entire culture out at valley ranch!if he ever gets the chance, the difference between the qb's will be night and day.this place will be shocked at how superior a football player orton is an comparison to tony romo.all of the so called experts will be shocked!

just remember where you heard it first.

Good luck.

This is a team who is battling several major injuries to
key players including Pro Bowl talents like Lee, Austin, Jenkins, Murray,
Carter and Ratliff. Other key starters missing include Costa, Smith, Church and
Coleman. That is 11 key players - that's half the starting lineup. Yet we still went 8-8.
