John Skelton looks likely to start for Cardinals

Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on December 7, 2010, 3:06 PM EST

The cruelest part of Josh McDaniels’ firing: Doing it just before the 3-9 Broncos faced John Skelton and the Cardinals.

The sixth-round rookie from Fordham looks likely to start on Sunday. Nothing is set in stone, but Skelton said he would be “competing” with newcomer Richard Bartel for the starting job. That indicates Derek Anderson won’t be available after suffering an apparent concussion last week.

Crap, we always make unknown QBs look like the next Hall of Famer.

I really liked Skelton in the draft, it will be interesting to see how he plays. Notice that AZ is seeking if they have QBOTF at the end of the season, with nothing on the line.

what happended to Max Hall?

No, they have to play him. Anderson is hurt, Hall is hurt. Then again, they played hall really early so they were looking for a QBOTF after like week 3

He was injured in the last game....and he blows

Anderson is healthy, Hall went to the IR

I wonder if he will put his heart and soul into it every week.

[broncosteven]

The Studesville era will start with a win! He will only need 2 more after that to equal mCd's poor excuse of a record.

[Beantown Bronco]

Note to self: start John Skelton instead of Drew Brees in first round of fantasy football playoffs.

[supermanhr9]

We should trade for him.


I kid

[Homer Simpson]

Studsy couldn't have asked for an easier game to start with.

[worm]

I hope he is practicing his serious face for the sidelines Sunday.

[Los Broncos]

What will he QB rating be?

[Doggcow]

I think a lot of us really liked Skelton in the draft.

A big boy with a big arm, Roethlisberger-esque?

Might want to check your math.

See. McD started with a 6-0 record at the beginning of his career.

An excellent attempt at kicking a dead horse though. Thanks for your thoughtful contribution to the board.

Uh, I'm pretty sure he meant his record this year. Because, you know, we would then be comparing a coaching job with the same group of players.

But you can be an ass, too, if you'd prefer.

Thanks. I'll be an ass.

He's comparing the start of eras. in that case, if he wins this weekend, he'll need five more wins in a row to "tie" the McDaniels start.

If he's not comparing the start of eras, he didn't make that clear.

No calling Sssssssssssssssteven out for being an ass? How gentlemanly of you.

Yep moose I meant this year, tough to comprehend but I meant this year.

[go_broncos]

Oh..he is moose..He changed the name once Mcd left..Hilarious!

[TheElusiveKyleOrton]

Oh..he is moose..He changed the name once Mcd left..Hilarious!

Because "moose" had so much "McD" connotation.

Sweet christ, you are a ****ing dumb ****. Seriously. Kill yourself. Please don't procreate before you do so.

It's because you believed and supported Mcd..you look idiot now supporting him..That's the reason you changed your name..LOL

[TheElusiveKyleOrton]

Yeah. What a ****ing moron to support the coach of the team I root for. You're right.

What I should have done was be a self-righteous retard on a message board ripping him every day. That would have been a far better outcome for everyone.

I stand by my previous statement. You are a ****ing retard. Kill yourself.

Oh, and by the way, I've requested that name change THREE TIMES since the season started. Three. That's this many: I I I. All but two of your fingers, you no-brain-having waste of space. The only reason it finally changed is because of Blue's "McNicknames" thread above, where I requested the name change and it finally took place.

You're a horse's ass. Your takes smell like old garbage, and I'm guessing you have breath to match, you mouth-breathing troglodyte.

[loborugger]

Crap, we always make unknown QBs look like the next Hall of Famer.

This was the first thing I thought of, too.

Don't worry..Mcd will get a job..Hilarious!
By the way..next time you ask me before you start supporting coach blindly..

[TheElusiveKyleOrton]

I could give two ****s less about McD.

Here's your problem. Well, one of them.

You're unable to separate the idea that some people wanted the team to do well, and therefore supported McDaniels, from the idea that some people wanted McDaniels to do well, and therefore supported the team. It's not surprising that someone with your lack of intellect would be unable to make the distinction, but here we are.

Thanks, but there's a list of approximately 10 MILLION people I would ask for advice before coming to an illiterate moron whose only contribution is repeating his stupidity over and over again on the internet. But if that changes, I'll totally look you up and ask you some questions.

If you ever decide you want to learn how to read, I hear hooked on phonics is an excellent program.

[WolfpackGuy]

Better wear a helmet if you're sitting close to the field.

The kid has a gun, but he's as wild as Kyle Orton.

When you get angry..I feel good..

[TheElusiveKyleOrton]

When you get angry..I feel good..

You must be crying tears of sadness right now.

See, another difference between you and me: I'm more curious about who the next coach will be and where he'll take us than interested in rubbing someone's nose in it. You're more interested in doling out what you perceive as punishment than how the team actually performs.

You're a simple-minded, small-cocked dip****. I'm sure that makes you feel good, too.

I'll bet. You'd rather rub one out to the failure of the team you allegedly root for than talk about anything of substance. Good onya!

The world needs more dumbasses. Er, wait. No, it doesn't.

Seriously. Start your car in the garage and sit in it. Hang yourself from an exposed beam. Shoot yourself in the face. Just please, please don't have any children.

Nope. After you kill yourself, this board will be filled mostly with people who actually know what they're talking about. It will be a nice change of pace.

Did you want to refute any facts, or just continue with your mindless drivel?
