NFL: Offseason Discussion Thread

[No More Sorrow]

Yeah i guess lol. It's on NFL.com there's no story to go along with it yet just says they got rid of him with 2.5 million left on his contract.

 

[No More Sorrow]

Really makes no sense, when like you said they could've traded him to a QB needy team weeks ago but now they're letting him go for nothing.

 

[PHX]

Just a waste of time for Orton who could have been starting for a team week 1 and dumb of the Broncos who could have got something for him. Don't think Tebow would be playing any better or any worse if he was the starter from the go.

 

[No More Sorrow]

Maybe he'll head back to Chicago now that Cutler is out.

 

[No More Sorrow]

Although since he was waived doesn't that mean that every team in the NFL gets a chance to pick him up starting with the worst team? which would be the Colts.

 

[PHX]

Yeah it does work like that even though it is pointless for the Colts to go trying to save the season. As far as teams who still have a shot but need a QB the Chiefs would be his best place or maybe even the Skins even tho they are really done too.

 

[No More Sorrow]

Yeah It's kind of pointless for some teams but eh. Colts, i don't think take him as it would just be another body and i assume that they are going for Luck in the draft they're 0-10 nothing can really help them. Washington has some weird obsession with Rex Grossman. Maybe the Chiefs, but minus the 3ints the guy Tyler Palko who started for them last night was pretty good.

Maybe the Chargers

 

[PHX]

If he wanted to go somewhere long term and not just use this as a one year stop then Miami the place he should have been traded to is where he is gonna be at.

 

[No More Sorrow]

Yeah, Miami fans want him. I remember them chanting "We Want Orton!" whenever Chad Henne came onto the field earlier in the season before Henne got hurt. And he'd have a reciver he knows well in Brandon Marshall so it could work out for them.

Wild Card: Steelers & Raiders

NFC North: Packers
NFC South: Saints

Lions have way to hard of schedule, so Atlanta should get one of those last spots. Their schedule is very easy and they seem to be getting their momentum back.

 

[Killswitch]

Broncos are a class act for releasing Orton. They didn't have to do it. But John Fox is a player's coach and he knew Orton was done here.

You don't think the Raiders can hang on and take the division?

 

[PHX]

You don't think the Raiders can hang on and take the division?

Honestly it could go either way but just went with the Broncos edging it out last minute if they can keep playing how they're playing. It'll probably be the closest division race of the season.
