Thread: Should the Bears consider trading Cutler in the off season?

I touched on that, I don't think he would he's playing for his childhood team and he's already pushed his way out of one city. I don't think that would bode well for him moving forward to force another organization's hand, would he be wanted? Sure but would be damaging his reputation.

It sure beats his body. Also it's a tough road to hoe trying to forge a legacy here. After the league witnesses his pounding week after week it's not going to damage his rep as either a tough guy or a guy who stuck it out esp the years of crap around him.

Real nice predicament this bull shit excuse for an organization has put this team in.
We're actually contemplating letting go of Cutler so that he can excel because it will never happen here in his career.

We should have just kept ORTON and GROSSMAN.....and just ruin the shit we already had.

Angelo has had 3 fkin' YEARS to protect Cutler, and get him the weapons he needs to succeed. And he has done absolutely JACK SHIT.
They not only need to FIRE Angelo and his minions....they need to send them all on a trip together on the same plane.

FKin Horse Shit "Management"!!! ..... they ALL need to take a 1000 foot walk off a 999 foot pier.

They'd get lost going that far

Now if Martz was willing to sit down with Cutler and say "What offense works best for you? What plays should we keep and which ones should we scrap?", like Carolina is doing with Cam Newton, then they make they keep Cutler around because he's the best QB we've seen around here in my 40+ years as a fan. If we do change OC's I believe Jay should be a part of that selection process and have some input. The offense needs to be built around him.

First of all it would be great if Martz would do that but it isn't his style. Remember that article that said, "you don't hire Mike Martz to fit in" and that's exactly what we got. Mike Martz's offense played Mike Martz's way. If he adjusts at all he does it very grudgingly.

I've been saying for quite some time that firing Martz and bringing Jeremy Bates would make the most sense. It's doubtful that Cutler would have a problem with that since Bates was his OC in Denver the year he made the pro-bowl. Bates knowns how to build an offense, game plan, and play call around Cutler's strength's. All Martz has done so far is play to his weaknesses.

Jay Cutler is not a 7 step drop back pocket passer like Kurt Warner. He's and Aaron Rodger/John Elway type of QB who can run and make plays with his feet as well as his arm. He plays best when he has the ability to do it his way and we all saw that Monday night. For the first time we basically said screw the system and ran the team the best way he knew how to do. I'm sure Martz wasn't pleased but we should all be thrilled.
