Cutler's Injury Lingers............

OL has probably gelled, but the Bears have only faced one good def since then, the Jags, and they aren't great. My guess is it's a combination of the OL getting a little better, Hoyer getting the ball out quickly, and poor defenses. 

And therein lies the problem Billy.  Even though Cutler turned his game around significantly last year some will still choose to bring up the past under other OCs in much worse offense far less suited to his strong points.  Despite that Cutler never fought with his OC other to tell Martz to go **** himself and walk away from Tice but he still ran what he was asked to run.  Now compare that to Mac who often told Ditka to go **** himself and then ran what he wanted to run.  Maybe Cutler needs to have more of Mac in him.

Where was his pass blocking earlier this year?  Where was his running game?  Where was Cam Meredith in place of Kevin White and where were the planned roll outs passers like Cutler and Rodgers thrive on and Loggains is finally putting into his game plans?  Did Fox restrain him from those earlier or was Loggains just not up to using them?  How can anyone contrast what Cutler had to work with to what Hoyer has had for several games?

Too many want recall bad shit from the past only as it relates to Cutler and forget all about what life was like at QB before him.  That's why I brought up those I did that were all 1st round picks!  The reason JA traded for Cutler is that we hadn't drafted a decent QB since Mac back back around '82 and maybe Harbaugh around '88 or so.  Since 1992 the Bears have started 29 different QBs!! We have such a great track record for it that at least some idiot Bears fans still clamor for dumping Cutler and rolling snake eyes one more time hoping that just once 7 or 11 comes up and it hasn't since we drafted Sid Luckman in '39.

I've posted on far too many occasions how Cutler's stats compare to other top QBs who were also seen as being gunslingers and risk takers.  They're actually very comparable and some of these guys are HOF QBs so is it all Cutler or is maybe some of it the mess of team he's been asked to lead?  No one in the NFL ever threw more picks than Brett Favre and some I saw were far worse than Cutler's yet in GB he's hero and in the HOF and to some Bears fans Cutler is the goat and in the Hall of Shame.  So go figure.

Like I said.  Most Bear fans can't see beyond the end of their noses and wouldn't know what a good QB looked like if he bit 'em in the ass. If they did Hoyer wouldn't have had to spend 4 games proving he isn't one.  Most should have seen that the minute he took over for Cutler and got nowhere too.
