Watching Kyle Orton tonight, I cannot stop thinking of the similarities and I am talking about more than the fact that Orton suceeded Brees at Purdue.
1. Obviously, Brees and Orton were very successful at Purdue and labeled system QB's.
2. Both go into the NFL with little respect. It is said that neither has the "big arm."
3. Both lead there teams orginal teams to the playoffs.
4. Both are cast aside by the teams that drafted them.
Now Brees, lands with the Saints. A team that was not supposed to be very good and surprised the NFL with masterful offense led by a young offensive genius at a head coach.
Now I don't think Orton will have Brees' success but who would have thought the Broncos would start 5-0. Your thoughts???
