While we are clearly just speculating about all of this at this point, my guess would be that Booty's lack of experience kept this from happening. I think Kubiak just couldn't pull the trigger on going into the season with someone as inexperienced as Booty as the back-up. For good or bad, Orlovsky at least has started/played in a fair amount of games in the league.
