Check Down

[Catdaddy]

Who is the smarter QB, Cutler or Clausen? Clausen will check down when he doesn't see anything, Cutler tries to stretch the field every play and won't check down and thats why he has an concussion. He won't throw a 3 yard pass for his life! I hope and pray Cutler gets the start, our defense is better than the Giant's, and I think we will pick him off at least 3 times if he starts!

Staredown or Checkdown which will we see?

Plus they have never beat us at home, left that fact out. They are only favored by 3, our home field and kicker puts us the winner!

You mean kickers

I think we will win this one. Unfortunately I think it may also be a snoozer.

As someone mentioned Clausen checks down in part because he's a rook but also in the abscence of short passing plays thanks to crappy playcalling. This team has not reached the point of vertical passing that requires 6 seconds for routes to develop. They should be throwing screens, jet slants, quick outs, stop passes, and play action.

Again, if anyone with Sunday ticket watches the Rams... they do this all day long. The key is to get the ball in the hands of playmakers as fast as possible.

For many years I've had a long standing disgust for the Broncos. I watched with glee as they blew playoff game after playoff game, then finally blew chances to get to the playoffs all-together.

Thanks in large part to Cutler. He is a terrible QB. Trading Orton for Cutler was not an upgrade for the Bears.

That being said, I don't have that much faith in Clausen, a rookie, right now. But I'm excited to see how he develops. He has some good looks on the ball from time to time and could probably mature into a good player, but he's running an uphill race right now. He's doesn't look ready.

I'd suspect this will be a very low scoring game.

Check down and keep the chains movin

P.S. You said our defense is better than the "Giants"?

Uh... they spanked us, and scored the most points on us so far.

Yes sir, but our QB gave up 18 points to them by throwing 3 picks at their goal line. Oh, Gamble had a bad wheel that game too

why are you bashing someone who's only been in the league for 4 games? And then your comparing him to someone who has been in the league for 4 yrs.

Cause Clausen actually looks like a 4 year guy and Cutler looks like the same Cutler. I know Denver is real happy, trust me, I'm from there and my family still lives there. We thought McDaniels was stupid, I guess he is pretty smart for his age!

Giants are #3. We're #18.

No, our defense is not better than the Giants.

You didn't watch that game? You didn't see Moore throw those picks?
