azbearsfan Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 Why? I am not arguing so much as just asking. To me, the main thing that held Rex back (beyond surrounding personnel) was his inability to read the field, as well as his questionable feel inside the pocket. He just didn't read coverages very well, and didn't handle the pressure well either. I do not know for a fact, but I have not seen where these were big issues for Cutler. He is an aggressive QB, like Rex, but I am not sure he is Rex part two. Because I think a big part of Rex's problem was a crappy Oline. I see Cutler having the sames problems here, and we know how the fans are to TO prone QB's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madlithuanian Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 Agreed. If this franchise truly wants a QB, we must get Cutler.... I just don't see it happening due to management ineptness. If Cutler is available we go get him. Pointing out his mistakes is fine but he's still young and he's better than Orton. It's true that franchise QBs don't come cheap but in Chicago they don't ever show up so IMO the price is worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DABEARSDABOMB Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 This would be a no brainer. I would give up Orton and the 18th pick for Cutler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madlithuanian Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 Sage wasn't paid that much...really back-up money. Which is still seriously more than what we have invested in the position. lol How many QB's are they gonna get? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chitownman Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 Here is an article by David Haugh of the Trib that reiterates the points on why we should go out and get Cutler. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/chi-0...0,7412783.story I agree with someone earlier stating that Bears management was too inept to be able to get this done. I just like hell that Jerry Angelo would get his head out of his ass and get this potential deal done. Start with Cutler and build from there. With Cutler you upgrade a position that has been a bust for a long time and I even love Jim McMahon. His problem was that he was to fragile to have the success that Montana had. If McMahon had not been fragile like that, would have had a far better career. Look at their numbers in college and I believe McMahon was better at BYU then Montana was at ND. Cutler has far to much upside and definitely is an upgrade from Orton and definitely superior to Grossman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
