It's not a good thing when your GM has to pull a hail mary on your BACK-UP in midseason. He was incredibly lucky, in fact, that Orton was even on the market at just the right time.
And the only game where Orton should have started under Haley was against Chicago. He didn't, but he eventually went in to replace Palko in the second quarter. Again, you are getting riled up over one quarter.

No, I'm getting riled up over the fact that Haley had the power to not start palko for even one game. Palko shouldn't have started one game. You can say Stanzi wasn't ready, but I'm willing to bet he would have faired better than Palko. A 5th rounder that I don't think is any better than Stanzi started a playoff game for the Texans. That bugs me.
