Kyle Orton to arguably the top quarterback in the NFC

[Ben_n_austin]

Who ever wants to compare Kyle Orton to Tony Romo can just go ahead and slap "themselves". Not even worthy of being reprimanded. Every week they try to say these young quarterbacks are like Romo. Well until one of them shows up to play 4 quarters every game, they need to wake up, cuz Romo's one in a million. :bang2:

The Vikings are poor judges when it comes to quarterbacks. Remember, they once had Drew Henson on their roster.

Yeah, he's like Romo...............

"Except he was able to get to operate the offense for a full year" before being relugated back to the bench!!!!!!!!

Yeah. He's THAT good that he got to start for a year before taking his rightful place riding pine when a REAL QB came alone. THEN, that REAL QB turned out to be Rex Grossman!!! THEN, they had to go through a standard re-tread in Griese before they finally arrived at the "next Tony Romo" in Orten!?!?!?

Ahhhhhhh.............I don't recall Romo starting for a YEAR and then getting spanked back into reality...............where Orten belongs.

Maybe the Bears, a product of salary cap/parity measures (like the NOW re-crowned Aint's) finally found a QB to begin training. Who knows? But the "next Tony Romo"??? HARDLY!!!

If he was anything approaching Romo, you'd have never known the name Rex Grossman. And Griese would be backing up someone named McNubb in Philly. That's how desperate they are in Chicago for QB play. If you spot them to "R" and the two "O's", they couldn't EVEN SPELL Romo!!!!

To be fair to Orton, he was not a turnover machine like Grossman was. he handed off and threw short passes. he seemed to be able to contain himself from gunslinging unlike Grossman. It will be interesting to see if he has improved. He was rushed out as a rookie- and I frankly think that is NEVER good.

One of these days, I have to get my hands on my friends pictures of Grossman back at Florida.
