The Argument For Orton

What do you want Santa to bring you this year?

Viewing the past few Bears Games has made me quite queasy, even the ones in which we were victorious. It seemed for a while that our interim QB was, much like Stella, getting his groove back. This past Sunday proved otherwise. Previous Sundays have shown that Grossman is not the answer either. All we are saying, is Give Jack Daniels a chance.



We have nothing to lose, as this season is already an embarrassment. We need to see if K-Ort is a viable option for the future. Below I have assembled a list, some actually based on factual information, as to why we should start said Boilermaker.



1) 2005 – Led Bears to division title by starting 15 games as a rookie while helping Chicago to a 10-5 record in those contests… Set Bears rookie records with 15 starts, 10 wins, 368 pass attempts, 190 completions, 1,869 yards and 9 TD passes (tie)… First Bears QB to start more than 13 games in a season since Erik Kramer started all 16 in 1995



2) Named his dog Elaine after the Seinfeld character



3) He's in a band (far right)4) Brew Drees QB'd at Purdue, he is good. Hence, Orton must be too!

5) Drunks succeed in Chicago (See Hack Wilson, Randy Hundley. Don't See Todd Hundley)

BEAR DOWN!!!

Ah, football season is upon us. A few talking points before gametime...

1) Will Leon Joe be the impact player we expect him to be? Is he the answer if Urlacher or Briggs go down? Do you know who I'm talking about? I don't know why I get a kick out of seeing "Joe" on the back of someone's jersey. Not since "He Hate Me" has a jersey given me that much joy. Ok, "THE RIOT" pleases me as well, but we are talking football, damnit!

2) Were you aware that MC Gould has Mike Control?

3) This guy is really our QB?



4) Is he good? I hope not.
