CrackerDog Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 I think he'll have a solid game... About 200 yards throwing one TD pass, maybe more. We're indoors and the Vikings defensive backfield is suspect. The pass rush could cause him to make a few rookie mistakes so I wouldn't be surprised if he looks a lot like Rex... What does it mean, it's the first step in the process of determining what we do in the draft and what we do with Rex. If Kyle has three excellent games to end the season, you can forget about Rex and you can forget about going for a QB early. With our horrendous O Line I expect he'll look like a Bears QB, nothing special. He can't move outside the pocket all that well. I expect we'll see Kyle produce a few decent plays tonight but not enough to pronounce him our starter for next year. If he continues to progress, he'll be in the mix during camp next season. Anyone?

Connorbear Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 I'll go with 240 yds, 2 TDs and 1 pick. Hopefully, he doesn't get killed tonight. Peace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bears4Ever_34 Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 Tonight, I say he goes 14/27 208 yards 1 TD His receivers: Berrian- 3 catches 47 yards 0 TD Moose- 2 catches 21 yards 0 TD Bradley- 2 catches 40 yards 0 TD Clark- 1 catch 10 yards 1 TD Olsen- 2 catches 34 yards 0 TD Peterson- 4 catches 56 yards 0 TD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balta1701-A Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 Orton is still behind the same O-Line as Griese and Grossman was, which means he'll be under pressure. I wouldn't be surprised at all with a poor completion percentage. The 2 things I'll look for in the stat line will be the INT's and the Sacks. Hurries, Pressures, etc., I can live with because of the line. But INT's hurt the team and are usually a sure sign of bad decision making, and the number of sacks he actually takes will be a sign of whether or not he's learning how to feel pressure and buy himself time to get rid of the ball.

StrangeBears Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 Tonight, I say he goes 14/27 208 yards 1 TD Add a late INT trying to come back from 2+ scores down in there and it seems reasonable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearSox Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 17-26, 234 yards, 2 TD's... Bradley will be his go-to-guy as well, having his best game since the Detroit game he got injured in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brletich Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 I think he will do well, at least by this year's standard. I'm not expecting HoF numbers, but I would expect a solid outing where he shows enough to be given a shot next game. I think by the end of this 3 game stretch he will have shown enough to be the front-runner going into next year's TC. Outside of that, I am not predicting anything. Anyone who knows me will just accuse me of being an Orton homer if I go on...which I am...GO KYLE!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixote Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 I just pray he comes out of the game healthy. If this OL plays like it has recently, Orton may have to be carried off the field before the game is over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
