Cutler should be a legit thought...

Things apparently havent gotten any better between McDaniels and CUtler, and some sources are saying that the situation may have gotten worse. Yes the Broncos are saying that they are not looking to trade Cutler, but honeslty how many times have we heard things like that only to have the opposite done.

Fox isnt the guy who wants to spend time developing a rookie QB, that we all know after all these years. Fox also knows that Jake has max. 2 years left with this team. This is going to be Jakes 7th year with the team, how many teams have had that much stability at the QB position? Pats, Colts, Eagles, Seahawks, and G-Men, Steelers, Chargers approaching that point. What do all these teams have in common? They are all among the best teams in the league every year. The Panthers included. We have been in the playoff hunt up until week 17 EVERY year since Fox has been here..

Anyway, im not going too turn this into a trade Peppers for Cutler thread, because i dont care if Peppers is included in the trade or not. I hope Hurney and Fox would do what it takes to atleast explore the possibility of getting Cutler, I would even trade next years first and this years 2nd. Not that Jake isnt fully capable, but he's nto a 25 year old rocket armed stud, he's getting up there in football years. Sometimes you have to take a chance to get the franchise to the next level. The Giants gave up the farm for Eli, and look how far it's gotten them.

I like Eli a whole bunch but I don't agree that that trade is the thing has gotten them that far. I actually think that SD made out better on the trade than NY did. I can't remember the other player who they got (4th rounder), but besides Rivers, I know one of them was Merriman.

I think they got Turner that year as well.

Yowsah...SD did indeed make out big. So did Seattle.

Aren't all those players still with SD except maybe Olshansky?

Like I said they aren't all because of the trade, but ya all of them are still with SD, IGOR left for dallas this year.

    • The only thing I said was he was part of the staff that made part of the decisions, and that I am judging the decisions made by that group as a whole. As assistant GM, you can pretty much guarantee his input held more sway than an intern or the guy that takes coffee requests. Fitterer didn't operate in a vacuum. Neither does Morgan now. While Fitterer did have the ultimate decision, to say that Dan had no input in ranking boards, evaluating FAs, trade offers or anything else would be asinine. We all know he did. Otherwise what the hell was his job as assistant GM? He wouldn't have been kept for 3 years if he was arguing every decision Scott ever made.    And the actual quote was "Morgan has done a bang up job in the draft and FA. Compared to what the last guy did, he is kicking ass and taking names." So is XL kicking ass and Brooks taking names from last years draft or did I get it backwards? We took Wallace over Payton Wilson because he was an injury risk after trading up for a RB with a torn ACL? Which one of the kicking ass and taking names was that?  Maybe we should review the thousands of gameday posts calling for XL to get off the field because he's a bust and can't catch a cold. We could review the posts about Brooks but... And Wilson. He's at 118 tackles this season vs 36 for Wallace.  I gave credit to Dan for a good draft this year. But I'm also not ignoring last year's draft either since he did that one after the last guy too.  That's not a strawman. 
    • And then, in week 18, we can take Mayfield out of the game and whoop Bridgewater's @$$ for good measure! Let the former QB revenge train roll on!!
    • If we keep our guards in tact ($$$) and go with Mays at C, some OT depth would be nice. I think we should be happy about CB with Thornton's development (pre injury) and Smith Wade. I think Ransom is developing nicely, but I would like to see a FS type for situations. We suck at ILB and Edge (as a whole). We should be OK at RB.  I hope we sign Dowdle to a short contract. QB?  There are signs of hope and development.  (I don't like our backup QB) TE?  Good draft for TE, but I think we are developing with Evans, Sanders, and Tremble. WR?  A #2 with Coker and Horn in the slot.  XL?  What is that? We should be good in 2026. Morgan does more than draft.  Free agency has been strong too.  (Just emptying my brain on your comment--sorry)
