I know it isn't Orton's fault, but the Broncos are in a tailspin, and it's time to look at the future. Right or wrong, they drafted a QB in the first round and it's time to see where he is in his development.
The Broncos have been outscored 53-19 over the last two game, and have lost 4 straight. Yet, Tebow continues to sit. Listen, I don't think he can do it either, but I do want to see it. The fans want to see it, and even in football terms it's a good idea to at least see where he is in his progress.
There are only 3 games left in their season, which could be a nice little window to the future. It is time to find out if this kid is going to be someone they can have any faith in going into next year (and years after), and him sitting on your bench is just giving another reason for your fans not to watch.
***UPDATE***
So much for that idea. The Broncos' official Twitter feed posted an update Monday afternoon indicating that Orton has retained the starting job (ESPN).
