Cutler is just erratic and it is maddening. Everyone knows his ceiling, but he never cleans up the garbage and bad habits. He is like a better version of Rex Grossman. The offense never seems in sync or on the same sheet of music. I feel uncomfortable when Cutler plays. It is like I am waiting for the next INT. From the minute McCown came in, that was gone. I had confidence in him even though there was nothing to support it at that point (during WAS game). He played comfortable and the offense seemed to play like that. Now obviously if the defense showed up for a few games, the record would have been better, but McCown seemed to do exactly what the team asked him to do. Cutler digs holes, and then the defense bails him out and we scratch out a win and have more answers than questions going into an even harder game against Philly (who has a lot to play for).

Yeah that sets up for a crazy Week 17 game that could decide the North. If Detroit loses, both us and GB win next week, it would be: CHI 9-6 vs GB 8-6-1 with DET 8-7 playing MIN. DET would be eliminated as the best they could finish is 9-7 and the winner of the CHI/GB game would be at worst 9-6-1. Talk about a defining game. Now obviously a lot needs to happen between tomorrow and next weekend (DET loses tomorrow, all 3 teams win next week). GB has won their last 2 games by a total of 2 pts. NFL is crazy.

I hope it's just rust, but somehow McCown came in and looked comfortable from the first play in Washington - and only improved. Cutler had a couple of hard throws but that TD to Alshon was all Jeffery and could've easily been another INT. It really did not even look like the same offense, just very clunky.

and 6-13 with 2 INTs when throwing to Marshall (with a pick 6).

Ugly game, but all we needed was a win and a Detroit loss tomorrow. Briggs will hopefully be back next week against Philly (who looked like crap against MIN).

Wow what a catch by Alshon, he is a machine. That dude is ridiculous, why is Jay not throwing to him, he cannot be stopped?

Nice pick-6 by Bowman! Wow we needed that.

Wow, a decent drive, but those were all on Marshall. He over threw him on the long one and threw behind him on the TD. He needs to go off in the 2nd half to save some face. 2 INTs with a Pick-6, the Bears defense is playing decent so we cannot afford any more turnovers.

Take a knee, 1:29 is to much time left to throw an INT, too much time. Run it out with Forte.

Please Trestman, all I want for Christmas is McCown starting in the 2nd half with a phantom Cutler injury preventing him from playing.

I don't know, because he is doing his best to get us a better draft pick, reduce his next FA contract, and is basically eliminating any chance that he returns next year. There is zero confidence in him right now. The entire offense, which was humming without him, looks clunky and out of sync again.

Also, on those that think the Cutler move was the right decision: Join the club.

Wow, a drive starting on the 50 yard line and we are punting. This is pitiful with Cutler leading the charge.

Almost another one, would've been a good throw if Marshall was 7'.

Wait, we are almost in the INT Zone.

Maybe Jay can get us a FG starting from the 50.

Game over, if he stays in we lose. Hopefully he will say his ankle hurts when he was touched on the pick-6 and they will put McCown in.

Put McCown in, I've seen enough of this garbage. 2 INTs in 13 attempts, 47.1 QB Rating, another bonehead decision by Trestman.

Nice 3 and out after a turnover. How was that drive? 2 horrible pass attempts to Marshall. He is also holding the ball way too long.

We still need to complete drives, 2x decent drives and 3 pts is not going to win anything. We need some TDs, now let's take advantage of the turnover.

Surprising to see the same Cutler MO: force to Marshall - check, throw off back foot - check, throw Red Zone INT killing scoring drive - check. So now that we got all those out of the way, now we need some lasers and pin point bombs.

Yep, the rest of the half will be telling, though Haden is on Jeffery right now. He needs to lead this team right down the field and score a TD on this next drive.

He was? He threw off his back foot to Bennett, and threw behind Marshall, though Marshall still caught it before the INT.

Are you serious, that was 110% on him, he forced that into Marshall (go figure) for no reason.

WTF Jay? Why force it on 1st down? You're an idiot.
