Thats horse ####. Lawson was reaching for Orton's shoulder/arm and Orton bent his head down and caused the hand to go to his head. It wasn't even a "blow". It was more of a graze. Orton hit his head harder after the play trying to get the ref to throw the flag.

Agree. I'm getting sick of seeing these :) penalties. Helmet to helmet QB hits I can take, but when a QB just gets to duck and get smacked on the head for an automatic 1st down is getting tired. Would anybody object to the batter standing over the plate just to get a free walk?

I am happy with the result, but I have to agree with you.It is just like when a 6'7 lineman comes through and hits the 6'2 QB and get flagged with a helmet to helmet call. As soon as that lineman lowers his head to make the hit, the first thing that impacts is his helmet on the QB's top of the helmet.That being said, to show how boring this game has been, it is almost half-time and the game is only 1 hour and 13 minutes old....this could be the quickest NFL game in history.
 
I can hear it now....

Kid in stands: "Daddy, I thought you told me they scored a lot more in American football than in English football. We score more in our soccer games at school than this."

Dad: "Ummmmm...."

Kid: "Daddy, why don't they get points for those punt thingys. They do a LOT of those."

Dad: "Ummmmm...."

Kid: "And Daddy, I don't think it's nice of them to come to our Stadium and just keep mucking around digging a big hole in the middle and going nowhere."

Dad: "Ummmmm...."

Kid: "Is it over now? Can we go home??"

Dad "No son, it's halftime. Another half to go."

Kid: "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"

Any truth to the rumor the NFL has confiscated these horrible teams' return trip tickets?

Just stay there, the NFL is fine without you!

 
Orton crushed by Manny Lawson - hard helmet hit to the chest.

ETA - Tebow warming up - may be coming in on next series for the Broncos

ETA: Orton comes on for the next series - pretty tough customer

Vernon Davis out there or is he done?

How does Smith look.

Was Carr that bad last week??

What is Singletary thinking? He needs the 1st down to seal the game and Frank Gore is on the bench? I don't get that move at all. Granted, I need the Bronco's to get the ball back. I'm all for the terrible coaching decisions.

 
The Broncos get to face the bye week after a really stinky performance today. Hopefully Bowlen recognizes that this team is in big trouble and that they have found ways to lose each week that make a possible change more compelling - at least the radio shows will be looking for Bowlen to grant the dreaded vote of confidence.

With two weeks of prep time and a 2-6 record does McDaniels create more opportunities for Tebow?

I hope not. Orton isn't losing these games. He is about the only reason we are in them.Dumb penalties, our defense looks old and lacks speed. the special teams are a mess and turnovers are killing this squad.The compelling stat is how poorly this team plays in the 1st quarter in every game. That is on the coach--bottom line. Josh just does not know how to prepare this team IMO.
