I think alot of the same people who think marrone is great without watching bills games think that Orton sucks without watching him just because his name is kyle orton.  So many of his incompletions were to avoid sacks - he didn't get sacked nearly as much as I would've expected him to behind that line

Some people dismiss his numbers as garbage time but two of the games, he was so good in garbage time that it stopped being garbage time and they won the game.

When they blocked AT ALL, he was slightly better than average.  I'm not saying "when you give him all day, he's fine" because anyone would be.  but when they actually made an attempt to get in the way, he got the job done.  I bet that's a big reason he retired.  Guy has a kid now, he's no dummy, he's got all the money he needs, why live with CTE because of Cyril Richardson and Seantrel Henderson?

Jim Kelly only had 2 years with a better passer rating.  I know that's different eras, kelly would be around 100 every year now, but it's still something.

Credit to Marrone for making the switch.  I don't blame him for going with orton or for leaving.  i blame him for the line and for the punts
