News and Notes
Nov 3 QB Kyle Orton is coming off a poor showing against Baltimore, when he had 62 of his 152 yards on a final meaningless drive. Pittsburgh, Denver's next opponent, has a similar defense. The Steelers will pressure Orton, but they have given up a good amount of passing yards. If the Broncos can give Orton time to throw, he could have a decent rebound game. Yahoo! Sports

Nov 2 Orton had his least productive game as a Bronco in a 30-7 loss to Baltimore on Sunday. He threw for a season-low 152 yards and was held without a touchdown pass for the first time.

Advice: The Ravens' defense came out on a mission in this game, and it likely won't be any easier for Orton on Monday night, when the Broncos host the reigning Super Bowl champion Pittsburgh Steelers.

STATS LLC

Nov 1 Orton completed 23-of-37 passes for 157 yards on Sunday against Baltimore.

Recommendation: Orton did not have a touchdown on Sunday, but he also did not have an interception, the sixth time in seven games that he's done such a thing. While he may not be putting up huge fantasy numbers week to week, he is also not costing fantasy owners any points with giveaways.
