GakMan23 Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 How is he going to be better then anyone we currently have on the roster? I mean is he even going to be better then Nathan Enderle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GakMan23 Posted November 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 Link to article: http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/footb...,0,706094.story I guess they had no choice as Orton was claimed by the Chiefs but wow, I sure hope Hanie can play!!!!

Bears4Ever_34 Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 I wonder if Orton even shows up. The whole reason he wanted to be released anyways was to come back to Chicago. Kansas City' coach is a nutjob and probably still believes his team can make the playoffs (They have no chance). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madlithuanian Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 Yes, I think he's better than Enderle is right now. He'll back Caleb up. Decent signing. NOthing spectacular. Caleb is the man. How is he going to be better then anyone we currently have on the roster? I mean is he even going to be better then Nathan Enderle?

GakMan23 Posted November 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 I am just concerned with anyone that is one of "Martz's guys" after that whole Todd Collins mess. Remember Todd was chosen over Josh last year.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember Todd was chosen over Josh last year.... Collins being signed may have come with the endorsement of the GM and coach since he had a solid game versus the Bears while with the Skins whose OC Al Saunders was considered a guy who uses a system similar to Martz. Allegedly they all are Don Coryell disciples who while coaching the St.Louis Cardinals and San Diego Chargers had prolific passing yardage numbers.

selection7 Posted November 24, 2011 Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 This is a real odd situation. Usually if you have to rely on your backup QB for more than an odd appearance, it's over anyway. But with the wins we've built up, teams we play with losing records, and talent on D and special teams, the backup QB really can make a big difference if he can play capably (I'm referring to playoffs obviously). My philosophy is to go with the guys you've got...unless you feel really bad about them, and in that case it begs the question why you didn't do something about it before an emergency came up.

madlithuanian Posted November 24, 2011 Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 As you should be! But McCown has actually produced some in the NFL...I can't recall Collins producing anything but upset stomachs...

Wasn't there one year with the Redskins where Collins suddenly started winning games? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Hochuli 3:16 Posted November 27, 2011 Report Share Posted November 27, 2011 Oddly enough, just like Todd, the link isn't working... It works for me. Collins had one good year. FWIW, nobody wants to see the back-up to Hanie. If that happens, they're f***ed regardless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
