Kyle Orton is a slightly below average NFL quarterback, which is about what Rex Grossman is. But if our system does for his numbers what it did for Grossman's, we could have slightly above average quarterback play with Orton. Of course, if it ends up turning him into McNabb 2.0....
100% correct. This is why I don't want Orton.

I'd rather go after Flynn (young healthy QB that knows the WCO), I'd pick up a big #1 WR in RD1, pick up the next best QB in RD2, and also pick up either a late round QB or undrafted QB.

Flynn and then Blackmon and we are in good shape

Re: The "Inside Word" on the QB Search

Bradford would make an impact here. Even with the roster we ended the season with we arguably had more weapons than StLouis which is pathetic.

That much is very true. But I think we also ended the season with the better quarterback.

Re: The "Inside Word" on the QB Search

I wouldn't be surprised if the Colts drafted Luck since he's projected to be the first drafted off the boards. Manning's future is uncertain. He simply hasn't shown that he's ready to return and he's 36 years of age. But it's a long time between now and training camp and Manning could very well be healthy enough to play by then. But you have to look at Manning's age, and you also have to be concerned about the future of your team. That's why drafting Luck makes sense.

I guess they won't bother listening to our offers now for Luck

Sorry but if they take luck I hope he's a bust. I know he probably won't be but I still do. Yeah I'm jealous

Re: The "Inside Word" on the QB Search

Official Website of the Senior Bowl


Quote:
—The 2012 Senior Bowl will feature a pair of NFL head coaches making their Senior Bowl head coaching debuts. Mike Shanahan and the Washington Redskins staff will face Leslie Frazier and the Minnesota Vikings staff in the senior showcase event later this month, it was announced today. Shanahan and his staff will lead the South squad in Mobile, while Frazier’s Vikings staff will coach the North. The 2012 Senior Bowl is scheduled for 3pm (CT) on Saturday, January 28th in Mobile’s Ladd-Peebles Stadium. The game and all practices will be televised by NFL Network.

Nice for our coaches to have a first hand look at these guys.

Re: The "Inside Word" on the QB Search

So will the Colts pay PM's bonus in the spring? And will Luck want to come to town and play behind Manning, or will he pull and Elway or Archie M. and go to the team of his choosing?
