    I read on NFL.com that Elway said Orton is still the starter in Denver and that Fox and company will need time to evaluate all the players before anything changes.

    I bet Fox wants the veteran to keep starting.

    I know some have a tie to the idea that Fox biases against young guys, and plenty of people want to see Tebow, but I don't know that Tebow is suddenly ready for having played well against a terrible defense.

    If Elway comes right out and says that Orton won't start he sinks any trade value for him unless Bowlen is willing to spend 9 million on a backup QB.

    Agreed.

    But also, y'all know it's almost to a lock that Fox will not want an inexperienced QB starting his first year in Denver.

    I think the Fox hire is about the worst thing that could have happened to Tebow. And for all husbands and boyfriends in the Greater Denver area, for that matter.

    I would probably hang on to Orton too if I were Denver. Tebow looked good but so did Matt Moore at the end of last season. If he flamed out next year then it would not surprise me.

    Tim's no sex policy just doesn't sit well with me at all. I'm worried about how he's going to handle my style. He needs to sit and watch for a few years, get a taste of the business, and then maybe I can give him a look once if he lightens up a bit.

    I was going to add "highest coach in football" but this shitty message board wouldn't let me expand any further. I might have to start looking at Denver MB's, this place can't hold my ambition.
