Thats freakin awesome! more from the article: So a rookie is hot-dogging it and Cutler sets him straight. I love it. Cutler is the leader of the offense and needs to keep the offense accountable for their actions. I love the attitude.

Yes please.

http://sports.yahoo.com/fantasy/blog/roto_...=fantasy,185004 Wow, if Bennett does that we are going to be looking really good this year.

The best part will be when he struggles early. So I am hoping for another couple of good games by Jackson during the preseason to make the change even worse. The coaches and front office now have to sleep in the bed they made, and it doesn't look like everyone agrees with that direction. Now you know ever beat writer is going to be asking questions to players each week about the situation, and it will eventually blow up.

http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/trainingcamp...tory?id=4424660 Not really surprising, but any drama for them is better for us.

Another interesting note is YAC for Cutler's receivers. You would think his receivers would be somewhat padding his yardage numbers with YAC. However, that is not the case. 2008 YAC Marshall - 4.2 Royal - 3.9 Scheffler - 5.2 Now compare that to: Hester - 4.2 Davis - 4.4 Olsen - 5.0 Our defense was the opposite of vertical last year, and our guys still had similar YAC to the Denver receivers. So I believe that his averages will be the same if not slightly better, but his gross numbers will be down this year.

Those are apples to oranges comparisons. You really can't compare guys like Manning, Brady, Brees with just stats. Same goes for Cutler. Cutler's numbers actually show a couple of things on their own. Last year, 12 of his 18 INTs were thrown when Denver was behind. 8 INTs were thrown when Denver was 3rd and 6 or more. Now if he was throwing the most INTs on 1st Down, I would think that would be more alarming. That leads me to believe that some of his INT's were more situational and not necessarily his fault (trying to do too much, defense always postured against the pass). He is still going to try to fit balls in when he is late, but a lot of times, those are risk and reward type plays. If he doesn't do that, the defense won't honor anything. That has been our problem for so long. Now we actually have a dangerous QB who is going to take risks. Will they always pay off? Nope, but the defense better be ready for them or they will get burned. Grossman actually had this going on for a couple of games, but eventually his skill caught up with him. Cutler's ceiling is so much higher. Just think if Cutler was our QB for the SB. I think we win easily. That is what we have to look forward to.

That is how I feel too. I understand if you are trying to be positive, but if an 80-something QB rating in a preseason game is the best you've ever felt, Denver should be nervous.

Orton: Now you can take this a number of ways, but it sure does seem like a shot at the Bears since that is the only "talent" he has ever been around.

I believe it will be on NFL Network tomorrow night. Cutler highlights: http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-game-highlig...tler-highlights Forte highlights: http://www.nfl.com/videos/chicago-bears/09...orte-highlights Game highlights: http://www.nfl.com/videos/chicago-bears/09...ars-17-Giants-3

Hilarious, Favre 1-4 for 4yds. Jackson 200+ yards with 2 TD's and counting with a QB Rating (158.3). So if this trend continues, this is going to create huge problems for Minnesota, and I love it.

http://blogs.suntimes.com/bears/2009/08/du...n_harrison.html Would he be worth it?

6 is a TD baby! They should've said, are you ready for some Favre-beans.

From the Vikes homepage, hilarious:

vs GB, Monday Night, Week 4, and @ CHI Monday Night, Week 16.

What a joke, I hope the drama sinks them.

Your #4 pick is interesting. Otherwise looks pretty good.

I thought he was taking blame by stating what type of receiver Hester is (not leading him as a go-get it receiver). He is not throwing him under the bus - and yes, Hester should've at least made an attempt to break up the INT.

Another thing to consider is the Bears don't want to reveal too much of their offense too soon. Right now there is very little film on Cutler with the Bears for other teams to use. This will be a huge advantage to start the season.

Also realize that Buffalo was on their 2nd preseason game. So they were able to use some more complex defense designs compared to their basic coverages. The Bears were without Forte and Olsen, which is a significant amount of our offense. Looking at the replays, Buffalo had a bunch of players in coverage on almost every play. I am actually more worried about our passing defense than anything else. Buffalo was putting on a clinic vs our defense.

Yeah, Buffalo QB's are 18-21.

I am also curious to see the Special Teams and returns without using Hester.

I also thought Vick to Cleveland would've had the best synergy.

He could say that he meant preseason opening day starter.

I like Bears over Titans as well.
