So if the Bears start making deep playoff runs and maybe a SB win in the coming years

"Too much" to one team isn't "too much" to another. Would I want my QB taking up 21 million in cap space for a year? Hell to the no. But Indy and Philly don't mind it.

The Bears made to SB 41 mostly because of their defense and run game and some timely big plays in the passing game and I would expect more of the same if they make it again. I don't think you have to give up "that much" to get that ability in a QB, but to each his own. I am sure the Bears will be more than happy if they feel the Cutler deal was a big reason why they make it to the SB/playoffs/etc.

I'm sure Mr Scot still will :lol:

Though to his credit, he likes Lovie Smith and someone else... :D

Smith, Matt Forte, Olin Kreutz, and others.

If having Cutler turns them into a Patriot style dynasty, I'll admit it was worth it.

If, however, Cutler doesn't get the team over the hump that he's supposed to, will you say they gave up too much?

One Lombardi and most Bear fans wouldn't care what they gave up, regardless of what he does otherwise.

In fairness, that's true of most fanbases regarding player deals.

I could even see the Eagle fanbase embracing a big money, multiple draft pick trade for Terrell Owens if it meant a trophy.

(admittedly, that one's a stretch) :sosp:

I will certainly admit that I was wrong, if he turns them into Pitt overnight.

Denver has not done as well with the picks so far....IMO, but I will admit that it is also wayyyy too early for me to say that. Didn't like Alphonso Smith with Chicago's next years first...but on the same note, I am not really thrilled with Brown, and us using next years first either.

    • It goes deeper than that for me. When I started watching the Panthers as a kid I fell in love with Mark Fields’ story during that SB run. He wore #58. Then TD wore it and kept the tradition of the being the soul of the Panthers. The next time someone wears #58 I hope brings that same spirit 
    • T-Mac is a nickname, Tet is a shortening of Tetairoa. Like you said below... your name is Jonathan, I could see "Jonny" being considered a nickname, but Jon isn't a nickname, it's a shortening of Johnathan, see the difference? And if your mom named you Jonathan for it's biblical significance/meaning, because she was very religious, I think it would be different. T-Mac is Polynesian, so much in their culture has deeper meaning for them, particularly names.  So for his mom to feel this way, I highly doubt it's just because she likes the name Tetairoa and not Tet, it's much more likely than not to be because the name itself has a deeper meaning in their culture.   Particularly as T-Mac himself has often talked about how much his Polynesian heritage means to himself and his family. And no, I'm not saying all this because of how much he's my guy, if he was just "normal american" and his name was Jonathan and he didn't like fans calling him Jon, I'd probably just say tough poo.  It's that he's Polynesian and I know things like names have a much deeper meaning in their culture than they do in ours for the most part. For whatever it's worth, a quick google search.......
