Wesson44 Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 Bears wideouts produced biggest day since '04 Posted: 9/17/2009 2:57 p.m. Jay Cutler has been widely criticized following the first four-interception game of his NFL career Sunday night in Green Bay. But the Bears quarterback helped his young wide receivers post big numbers in the loss to the Packers. Earl Bennett (7 receptions for 66 yards), Devin Hester (4-90) and Johnny Knox (2-82) combined for 238 yards, the most by Bears wide receivers in a game since Nov. 24, 2002 when Marty Booker (10-157), Dez White (8-106), Ahmad Merritt (3-24) and Marcus Robinson (1-3) generated 290 yards in a 20-17 overtime win over the Lions.

Ed Hochuli 3:16 Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 It's not a huge secret- the QB makes the WR's. Cutler made Royal and Marshall, and will hopefully make Hester, Bennett, and Iglesias. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balta1701-A Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 Now they just have to learn how to knock the ball down to help the QB avoid an INT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'TD' Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 I think it's a combo. An average QB can look good with great WR's Cunningham, George, and Culpepper. Drew Brees makes his WR's look better then they are by padding their stats every week. And then there is Brady when he got Welker and Moss where they made each other look better cuz they all are great. I say the last one is what happened last year with Marshall and Royal, cuz I think Royal is hte real deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madlithuanian Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 Agreed. It does take both. Either or will help either or. Fitz could help Russell and P. Manning could help even Bobby Wade... Having P. Manning and R. Wayne...is just want you want. Look at Roethlisberger...He's got Ward and Holmes. That's a pretty darn good duo to have. We may have that later this season if on of the youngsters comes on....but not now. I think it's a combo. An average QB can look good with great WR's Cunningham, George, and Culpepper.
