I noticed! He's going to contribute this year.

Orton is still Orton, nothing special that i saw from him.He said he was a completely different QB before the game and lol i didnt see it. I'll be patient with it tho... Made a couple.. how do you say "grossman errors" with the snap and the fumbles, but no one will kill him yet because "we won the game".
Forte/Jones looked like a really awesome combo... PA works well when the run game is on fire, would have been nice to see a lil grossman/berrian deep game or something close to it, hopefully we see it from KO but its not very likely...
Defense was a loooooot better than they were on SB sunday. they actually put constant pressure on the QB throughout the game instead of a quarter like on SB. still not perfect but the defense was looking like its good ol self

The fumbled snap was Kreutz's fault. He was called for an illegal snap penalty on that one.

The Colts were a top pass defense last year, so I'm not surprised that Orton didn't go for 200 yards and 2 TDs. He did make some throws that he never could/would have made in his rookie season.
