Thread: How long before....??

Its a good question VJ18. While I'm a big Cutler fan myself, I still don't believe he's proven himself as our long term, franchise QB. Not until he plays in another conference title game. I need to see more. You ask a good question. What if Cutler some how had the unthinkable type season? Reverts back to throwing picks and just can't lift us above winning teams this year? I think you have to give him another season for sure, but I'd be cocnerned if Cutler somehow fell apart this year. To tell you the truth, if that happened this year, then I think we'll also see a UFO land on the White House lawn.

I can't even fathom the idea that Cutler would fail us this year. But you never know right...

Btw, if Cutler somehow does flop, I attribute it all to shacking up with that dopey bimbo Kim whatever her name is. I will not be surprised if he's divorced in 5 years. That broad is just bad news and I'm actually quite surprised that The Cutler would mess with a dinky broad like that. Sheesh the guy could do so much better.

And in closing for the evening, BBPB just wants to add that Chad Pennington is a bonafide homo and TMZ will out him very soon.

I guess this is a good "what if" scenario...likely, no but good to generate convorsations in the dead part of the year

He def has "slack" and even a horrific season this year wouldnt warrent him being on a chop block

Only way i see a qb taken in 1 or 2 is if

Cutty has a "long term injury" that is a threat to reoccur (ACL,Concussion,throwing shoulder serious injury)

Or he has an absolutely laughable season im talking like 35 picks and 7 tds lol

He does something extremely stupid off the feild (almost impossible it seems)


More realistically i would say we could take a backup/future guy if our OL plays great and look like a long term group and there are no pressing needs

Still if thats the case were taking a LB imo

First off if for some unforeseen reason Cutler had a bad year this year, it won't have much affect on his future contract with the Bears since he doesn't have to sign a new deal this or before the start of next year. If he were to have two real bad years here, I still think we would resign him, but the deal would have to favor the Bears in that they could cut him after couple of years if need be. This would give us the chance to either draft, trade, or pick up someone in FA.

The biggest thing I see wrong about your scenario is that if we failed as a team this year that it would fall on Cutler. Even if Cutler had a bad season, the blame would have to be spread throughout the Offensive, the O line sucked, the Forte and Bush didn't get the yardage needed, the WR didn't go after the ball better, and maybe most of all the play calling. If the Offense fails this year it won't be totally on Cutler, as many have said 45% of our Offensive came from Forte, he got the deal and he got his money, now more then ever he has to show he is worth every penny.

Say the bears Flop HARDDDDDD this year do you still sign him to big money or do you grab a rookie next year? Do you let Cutler have one extra chance before releasing him to the FA? Im a huge bear fan but i sit back and wonder... Now lets try to keep this civil as possible... And no JC is god and Cutler is the man. I'm dead serious here because this site is the most down to earth bunch of guys ive had the pleasure of talking with but honestly If cutler doesnt prove himself with this team is it time to move on to another direction?
