The point wasn't about Matt Moore. There is nothing for the Dolphins to gain this season by getting Orton, and assuming the rest of his $8 million contract this season.

Matt Moore has technically been on a winning streak I guess.

Several teams out there that could be interested. Chiefs since Palko showed how much he sucks(I hope he goes there so that Bowe isn't worthless, I have him in fantasy lol).
Bears or texans would be ideal, winning teams for him, but how's their priority?(Is there a site that lists current priority?)
Redskins have had luck with grossman lately but that's always a shaky situation. Colts are already guaranteed not to make the playoffs so why bother. Miami is having success with Moore but could still consider an upgrade.
But I think the Chiefs will get him. At 4-6 in their division their season is not completely lost(2 behind the raiders) and after already losing Jamaal Charles they need a half decent passing game to win games. With a guy like Bowe catching passes it wouldn't take much for someone to go in and be successful there.

I strongly believe he will go to the Bears.....or the Redskins are the most likely if they put in a claim for him

Bears would be the best fit for both. Chiefs would be smartest move - same division and Orton knows Denver's offense and practiced against the Bronco's defense to help his new team.

Chicago would probably be a great fit right now.

Shanahan never had Orton. That was all McDaniels trading Cutler.

I don't think what Orton knows about the Broncos offense is worth much anymore!
