In response to "His stats are better than Orton's. At this point, I think Orton is a better overall QB." by Inigo

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.

When Orton was with the Bears he was gifted with a *fabulous* defense and special teams. There are just too many moving parts in football (or any team sport really) to put *too* much emphasis on an *individual* win-loss.

This is not to say Cutler doesn't have more to learn about time of possession and not turning the ball over, etc. He has cost the Bears at times, no question. But I simply do not believe for one second that this Bears team would have a better record with Orton under center.
