[CBFF] Rumors

<<The Bears and Orton didn't lose much during his time at QB.  He didn't
win many, if any, games.  He was just plain bad, but not so bad that
our defense couldn't win games for us>>

That's revionist.  The fact is was'nt allow to hardly anything but
hand the ball off.  He did that, plus he made the reqjuired dinks and
dunks as he was directed to.  The only game he was allowed to open it
up was against the Lions where he threw for over 300 yards a 3 (I
think) TDs.

Fact is, we don't have a clue as to whethe  he can be the guy or not,
but let's not make things up.
