Kyle Orton: The Ubermensch Is Back

By oddJoe ⋅ December 10, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

Put yourself in the shoes of Lovie Smith for a moment. Your defending NFC Champion Bears are 5-8 and out of the playoff picture, your starting QB Rex Grossman is out the rest of the season with a sprained knee, what would you do? Turn the ball over to Kyle Orton, exactly.

Mr. Neckbeard did start 15 games for Chicago in 2005 and inexplicably won 10 of those. (Can you say, “Satan?”) And when the choice is between Brian Greese and a ball-chucking nihilist, what the heck. I guess it can’t get any worse in the Windy City.
