Nobody wants to work with Cutler

Its bad when someone takes the raiders OC job over the bears.

The perception is that no one wants to come work for Smith, who is in a win-or-else situation, but rumblings at the Senior Bowl are that some candidates could be turned off by quarterback Jay Cutler and don’t want to hitch their wagon to him. Still, few quarterbacks possess the skills of Cutler. Today marks Day 21 of the coaching search.

At some point, you have to wonder if perhaps its not the Quarterback thats the problem with the Chicago passing game. Every Bears QB has looked bad over the last few years, but Orton looked better in Denver, while Cutler looked worse. Not that I know what the problem is.

I have been saying the same thing. Moose went there and looked average at best came back here and looked like he hadn't missed a beat. My thinking is there is some deep seeded offensive decision making/coaching problem.

It is pretty hard to pass consistently in Chicago due to the winds if I am not mistaken.

Unless that is an urban myth.

Might be something to that. The last Hall of Fame QB the Bears had was Sid Luckman, during the WWII era.

Chicago should have invested in a dome stadium instead of Jay Cutler.

But that doesn't make much sense seeing as the Bears tend to suck through the air regardless of where they play. I think its coaching myself.

    • I'm going to be real, the reason that vote ended up so lop-sided by the end was directly due to my programming. So there's nothing tongue in cheek about it. Also I left PFF after the Collinsworth acquisition (didn't want to move to Cincy) but have stayed involved in analytics via backdoor channels, but I can absolutely say that the experience was eye-opening, not because those guys are unquestionable football savants and that I became one by proxy, but because the amount of information that becomes available outside of what the typical fan has access to is revelatory and also really drives home how much context is still being missed even with all of that information. You don't discover that you know everything, you discover how much you still can't know no matter how hard you try, hence my point about the NFL not being able to figure out what makes a QB good. There's a lot of AI work going into that now and even that only seems to further confuse things vs. actually enlighten the problem. In the professional realm teams don't really talk about quarterbacks as A strictly being better than B, but how A can potentially perform better than B given a specific context of C. Of course those contexts may be wider for A than B, but there's also contexts where B can outshine A, even with lesser talent surrounding them. So what good teams strive to do is ultimately define a process of how they want their entire team to operate under schematically, find players that fit that scheme, and hopefully find a guy whose skillset will be maximized running that scheme with those players. Where bad teams fall of the wagon is constantly shifting those schemes and chasing bad fits or fads vs. sticking with a core identity and developing it.
    • there is a 100 mile long list of NFL players and coaches going to bat and defending horrible play from teammates.   
    • In 6 games, we've only had 6 hurries??? ... that can't be accurate
