Cutler to bears!!!!!!!!


Epistaxis

Recommended Posts

Sorry guys. I know you're happy you got him, but if I'm going to give up two firsts, a third and a player, the guy I'm trading for had better be a god on the gridiron.

Cutler isn't exactly in that category at this point, and it's by no means certain that he will be, especially if the Bears don't fix that O-Line (something now made more difficult to do seeing what they gave up in the trade).

One note: The terms Epistaxis listed weren't quite complete. In addition to Cutler, the Broncos also shipped their extra fifth rounder - acquired from the Seahawks in trade for Keary Colbert, oddly enough - to Chicago. Still a lopsided trade, but at least you got a little throw in.

Objectively speaking though, you gave up a lot to get Cutler. What you have to hope for now is that he turns out to be the next Joe Namath rather than the next Jeff George.

    • well i could go on & on but i will just highlight it by saying big difference trust me from the SEC & NFL.it's honestly like comparing apples & oranges especially when you are talking about a  LT. in the NFL you are going up against the most athletic freaks of nature the world has to offer . .the NFL also has much more exotic & complicated defensive schemes than what they are used to seeing at Georgis &  finally but most importantly you have to learn how to master complex bio mechanics where the body kick steps instantly as a reaction to these world class athletes rush without really making a conscious effort it's more of a learned muscle memory  & it can take thousands upon thousands of reps to master rproper technique for a LT in the NFL especially if you are still very raw like Monroe Freeling is    ...just saying 
    • All that being the case or maybe being the case, we do not know Wharton’s timetable n the first place. They are being coy about it. Or maybe not. They say week to week the board says he is terminal lol and must be replaced. Who knows? It may or may not warrant a fairly drastic solution.  Walker is a bargain and we are not well stocked at OL despite recent investments. Freeling has yet to have a single padded practice. Too much speculation driving this plan IMO. 
    • I would really love to know who’s actually making these moves because it’s weirdly vague who’s doing the hiring and firing.
