There is no doubt you disagree. With you on that I will not...disagree. I don't "hate" Cutler. Never said that. Hate the stupid mistakes he makes; yes. Hate how he stares down receivers; yes. Hate him? No. Please be clear on that. Don't trust him? Now that's another story alltogether.

Well played sir.

Call a spade a spade you ass clown. Why is it you just can't come out and call it like it is? I'm probably the loudest here about what it is you're talking about. Call me these names you keep mentioning by my name and quit playing these childish "guess who I'm talking about?" bullshit. You and Mad are always so prompt about getting on here and reminding me of stupid stuff that I'm saying but you're ok with doing under the guise of cloak and dagger. F#%k you. Look I thought McCown would do better than he has. I tried to make comparisons to how this is his first year under a new system and would probably struggle just like you and many others have about Cutler. I tried to offer the rationale that while in Treatman's offense McCown undoubtedly propspered more so than did Cutler...at least last year. I also tried to suggest that I felt paying as much money into Cutler was not a wise choice, because like so many of you want to remind me that McCown has a proven track record of not doing well, so too does Cutler. Name one championship he's brought us or the Denver Broncos. I fear the money paid for Cutler will be a waste. Where they could of easily kept McCown for one maybe two years traded Cutler and gotten an up an comer QB for Trestman to work with. And all for a lot less money. But that ship has sailed. I know you think that I'm hoping for Cutler to fail. I'm not. That would mean I'm cheering for our team to lose and not succeed. That couldn't be farther from the truth. In closing and in retrospect. This thread was an ill contrived idea largely on my behalf. Let's just hope that keeping Cutler doesn't prove to be equally bad. SCS if there is a way to remove it, make it so. If not maybe we can revisit it later this year. For me, I'm done with it. And to Cracker I say GFY.

Butt out.

Is it 10 years already? Nope. You forget our team still has Jay Cutler as QB. Lovie can rid himself of McCown if things don't go better. Trestman is now tied to the Jay "Jekyll/Hyde" Cutler.

Just using game one against Buffalo as an example. The first "Hyde" moment that was apparent to everyone here was the throw to a Defensive Tackle. The second "Hyde" moment was the short throw that appeared to be intended for Bennett and ended up being intercepted by Corey Graham. The third almost "Hyde" moment came off the deflection from Morgan where the ball popped up in the air and nearly was intercepted by Buffalo. The first half of last week's game had few of those moments too. But as we all saw the potion wore off and he went back to playing "Jekyll" again. This is something he's been doing for years. Offer all the excuses you want. Poor coordinator, poor line, poor accessories. At one point Aaron Rodgers was getting sacked more than was Cutler yet still outplaying him. The horrible choice to have Hester play WR or continue as a returner has proved itself nill. Despite all of this Cutler continues to be Cutler. I have said this before and will repeat it for you. I DO NOT want for Cutler to fail. I want him to play like the money they are paying him for. And until he actually makes it into the playoffs and wins that game, I won't be satisfied.

That's been my point pretty much since McCown played last year. I was the first to be crucified, nee ridiculed when I even breathed the idea of McCown coming into relieve Jay early last year. Jay was stinking up the joint in a few games early on. And I recall McCown looking good in the preseason. He only proved his ability to play effectively in Trestman's O each time he came in to do just that. Whereas Cutler has continued to play Cutleresque. In the win loss column this year he's so far .500. He was quickly heading down the road to 0-2 until something clicked last week. The "gamble" has sorta paid off so far. I dare challenge whether it will play out for the remainder of the season. I'll leave that to fate and the football gods. My thought that McCown may be able to do ok on his own in TB doesn't seem to be ringing true. Of course I might be able to use the same argument offered in Cutler's defense in that McCown is in a new offense in his first year and perhaps if he was given another year to gel, he could do better this time next year. Clearly Tedford may not be Trestman, so McCown in TB probably won't be McCown in Chicago.

Many others were calling the Saints the NFC frontrunner for the SB. Yet they are 0-2 Others thought the Seahawks would possibly have a perfect season. They are 1-1 And almost everyone said SF would easily beat Chicago. We know how that turned out. The "experts" know nothing more than all of us. That's why they "play the game".

This. The lawyer you refer to is Gloria Allred. Not someone you want hounding you. http://www.examiner.com/article/gloria-all...rns-into-a-joke http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2014...stic-abuse.html

Why's that?

Welllll....given the general disarray with how they are handling the 'off again on again' suspension of AP and all the other debacles of late and the general feeling that Goodell is losing his control of the NFL, someone may determine to circle the wagons. And if someone pops up on the radar, IE Marshall, they could decide to suspend him to give the illusion of dealing with the problem(s). With this rarely used "Exempt/Commissioner's Permission List" it would be a ripe opportunity to use it...again. Remember the NFL is about money. IF they don't address the hemorrhaging of money because they aren't addressing the problem, it will only get worse. BM did not do himself any favors.

I get this eerie feeling that the team had better prepare to game plan without him for awhile.

I predict fishing will be good next week and Willie Young will be named next week's NFC defensive player.

He's always been someone that has been 'in the shadows' and a reliable player. When you play on a line with Suh, Avril, Fairley and Vanden Bosch you aren't as noticed. He seems to be peaking at just the right time. I felt he would be the steal of free agency earlier this year.

Yeah I'm with Terra. ESPN appears more and more to be a "has been" organization anymore especially when compared to NFL Network. All this retrospective reporting is cheap. Especially in light of all of what's transpired these last few weeks.

How about 'Nice work last night. You're playing like you're paid to do. Keep it up.'

"Should" being the operative word. And another passive term earlier in your post "hoping". Even you are wary. I hope too that he will do well and he should keep it up, but will he?

Don't kid yourself. Cutler is a loose cannon. He very easily could have been intercepted a few times last night. In fact the closest he got was when he was drilled in the chest. As most here have pointed out for some reason he seemed more focused after that hit. Although the first pass TD to BM was more BM than Cutler. At any rate, I don't wish for him to do bad or not play well. I've just been down this road with him before. Before you build up your trust be wary. He isn't called Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde for nothing. Last week was Hyde, this week was Jekyll.

Speaking of man love. If neither of you two don't like it, don't read it. This was put in more as an entertainment piece. Don't worry, you guys and I all realize Cutler can't keep this up. If he does it'll be shocking.

Until next week I'll be satisfied with Jay, and the rest of the teams performance...until next week.

And Peanut, and Ratliff, and McManis... Lots of youngsters out there.
