Hows The Deal Look Now?
Last offseason the Chicago Bears made a swap of Quarterbacks that was supposed to push them to be one of the elite teams in the NFC. In a trade that sent underrated Kyle Orton to Denver and brought Jay Cutler to Chicago it looked like the Bears finally landed the franchise quarterback they've always wanted. Well half way through the season you would look at the stats of the two quarterbacks and ask which one was supposed to be the franchise qb again? Jay Cutler the Pro Bowl quarterback has completed 110 of 172 passes with 1,201 yards, 10 touchdowns and seven interceptions while leading Chicago to a 3-2 record. With a 64.0 completion rate and 240.2 yards passing per game, he is on pace to set club single-season records. One the other hand the Denver Broncos are undefeated largely due to the stellar play of Kyle Orton. He has completed 124 of 194 passes with 1,465 yards, 9 touchdowns and only one interception on the year. With most of Kyle Orton's numbers it raises a great argument of who got the better of the deal? I guess the future will only tell us.
