Adam Schefter answers readers' questions nearly every day in his blog. Monday, he turns his attention to the Pittsburgh Steelers and Denver Broncos before they take to the field in a "Monday Night Football" showdown. Have a query of your own? Submit it here.

Q: I think the feeling in Denver at the start of the season was that Kyle Orton was a stopgap solution, like the QB you had because you didn't have someone else. Does this guy feel like the long-term guy for the franchise now? I think if 6-1 becomes, say, 6-4, the glowing reviews will fade. I love what he's doing, but you don't get the No. 1 QB vibe, and hey, vibes matter!
