If they can find a buyer for Cutler trade him now. If anyone deserves a shot at getting out of this mess it's him. Based on what I've seen there isn't one chance in hell that offense will improve much no matter whose playing QB so whether he's playing and taking heat or out due to injury and being called a pussy and not tough it's the sonuvabitch game all the same and he's the sonuvabitch who'll take the blame.
Since he's stuck by Loggains and short of a miracle I can't see him returning next year there's a better than average chance this is when the Bears will try to move Cutler and hire a new OC who'll no doubt prefer his own QB to work with instead of tailoring his scheme to Jay. Gase was actually the first to do that and it worked. Now Gase in gone and the offense is a mess again. If this is the same offense, as we're told it was then either someone forgot to leave instructions for Loggains how to run it or Fox demanded changes that plainly aren't working.
The best thing for Jay Cutler from this point on is not what's best for the Bears. Jay Gruden is probably right when he says both could use a change in scene. Jay deserves a better shake than he gotten here and Bears fans deserve another decade or so of Rex Grossman, Kyle Orton, Todd Collins, and Josh McCown types so maybe another generation of Bears fans learns just how piss poor we've been at drafting and developing QBs. That's what's most bizarre to me.
If someone said we need to dump Langford and find a better RB I'd agree because we've always been a team with great RBs. Or if someone called for us to draft the next great Bears MLB again I'd agree. But WRs and QBs? Don't make me laugh. In Cutler and AJ we actually have the most effective passer/receiver combo I've seen in my lifetime and one is playing on a franchise tag with no assurance he'll be back and the other will probably be trade for far less than he's worth just so we can't start all over again.
It's not only sad but it's pathetic that a team with as much history as the Bears have should be run as poorly as this. So excuse me if I'm not pissing kool-aid and shitting cupcakes at the moment because I've seen us screw this up so many times before and it looks to me like we're just about to do it again all in the name of change but without a clue as to how to make it better. For example; BM trade and KW drafted, better or worse? JL drafted and MF allowed to leave in FA, better or worse? MB traded and a combo of ZM and Logan Paulsen replace him, better or worse? I could throw in Matt Slauson too but since our problem is with out $18 mil RT and not our LG that won't work but at least we signed a better LG thanks to GB.
I'm sorry but I don't see progress. I see a rinse and repeat of 2 parts Lovie as a HC and 1 part Emery as a GM. I guess the next two games will tell us even more but I'll be very surprised if they aren't losses as well and then what will Foxy say, "it's only four games"? Pace and Fox have had two FA periods and two drafts to show some improvement not on paper but on the field so where is it. We're now 1-8 under Fox playing at home. Tell me how any of this is better?
