WATCH: Jay Cutler discusses J.J. Watt, Texans defense

Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler will be in an undesirable position this Sunday when he stares down the likes of J.J. Watt, Jadeveon Clowney and Whitney Mercilus of the Houston Texans’ defense.
All three players are capable of putting pressure on Cutler without the use of any exotic blitz package. Watt, in particular, is the most dominant defensive player in the NFL and will pose a major and virtually unwinnable challenge to any of the Bears’ linemen he faces.
Equally concerning for Cutler and the Bears’ offense is the pressure that Mercilus is likely to bring off the edge, especially when he’s matched against right tackle Bobby Massie. The Bears’ free-agent addition isn’t the most fleet of foot; expect some big struggles in Week 1.
Cutler recently met with the media to talk about the impressive Texans’ defensive front, the addition of Josh Sitton to the offensive line, and his role as an evolving leader on the team.
