    - the more meta, the better, i say. -- nm - TFox Nov 9, 10:02
- Whatever happened to acting as an artistic pursuit, instead of a transparent cash grab in the guise of something more? - TFox Nov 9, 09:57 6
  - Oh, I'm not talking about acting...the producers are the moneygrubbers. -- nm - znufrii Nov 9, 09:58 5

- BTW - a rare pre-downturn Economist editorial in favour of regulation - Roger More Nov 9, 10:04
I totally understand the whole "not Cutler's fault the D sucks" thing...but it's still a very interesting fact, IMO. - Jim Nov 9, 09:42 14
- *shrug* I dunno. Maybe it means something, maybe it's like pitchers win-loss record. - musubi Nov 9, 09:49 9
  - Considering the guys before and after him at Denver had winning records, I don't think it's meaningless. -- nm - Inigo Nov 9, 09:51 8

        Right now the defense is too bad to even know. I do think the throw first and often approach of the offense is hard on a defense, but the defense is - pmb Nov 9, 10:11 1
        
        I really think the defensive meltdown is in part due to Cutler's gunslinging style. - Inigo Nov 9, 10:20
        
        Honestly, they gave up 41 points, I just don't see how you can peg that on Cutler. - musubi Nov 9, 10:05 2
        
        His stats are better than Orton's. At this point, I think Orton is a better overall QB. - Inigo Nov 9, 10:11 1
        
        I'll grant you that I've only been able to see two of Cutlers games, but I watched a lot of Orton in the past, and I don't buy that. - musubi Nov 9, 10:17
    - ayup -- nm - Jim Nov 9, 09:55
- Throwing downfield as much as he does is a blessing and a curse. - Inigo Nov 9, 09:47 2
  - The lack of (and abandonment of) the running game has been a big problem. -- nm - pmb Nov 9, 09:53 1
    - But that's what usually happens when you throw downfield too much. See the Ravens this year as well. - Inigo Nov 9, 09:56
- yet Kyle Orton has a fantastic winning % as a pro...... - groiny Nov 9, 09:43
