You can win with a great defense and a so-so but steady QB. Witness the Ravens winning with Trent Dilfer. Romo was a disaster against the Broncos: off-target and made poor decisions all day. Dallas should have won that game by two touchdowns, despite the tough defense. Great QBs will have bad games, and that was a bad game from Romo. The Broncos are winning with defense.

He has 8 TDs and 1 pick since that game. Seriously, it makes you look silly even mentioning the two in the same breath.

Which isn't to say Campbell wouldn't be a lot better than he is under the current scheme. That said, I'm still trying to figure out the Broncos. Orton is just a winner, in the ugliest way possible..

Otherwise, we'd all acknowledge the awesome that is Chad Pennington.. Are you saying you'd still rather have Campbell than Cutler? I can't imagine that's the case.. Remember that Cutler has been learning a new system and dealing with a tougher schedule. Unfortunately, judging a QB by their stats ends up being pretty pointless.
