After Cutler's season-ending thumb injury, Chicago is now looking at the 29-year-old Orton. Orton was benched in favor of Tebow after his poor 1-4 start. With Tebow in now, Denver has been 4-1. However, Orton has delivered some good stats on paper, surprassing 3,000 yards his past two years in Denver.
Chicago is 7-3 and are close to a playoff spot if they continue to pile up wins. With Cutler out now, it's a huge blow. If Orton struggles, the team can also turn to Caleb Hanie, who almost helped the Bears go to the Super Bowl with a good performance versus Green Bay last year in the NFC Championship.
We'll see how it goes, though.
