Jay Cutler Has Been Traded To The Chicago bears

[CCDaDon]

Angelo actually made a trade? O_O

nfl.com

[HeyRiles]

The Bears don't know what to do with a quarterback! They haven't had one in so long

[timmay9]

Big who cares.

(joking)

Bears will still suck.

[classicrockdude]

Great!!! We needed a new Quarterback. Cutlers pretty goood

[HeyRiles]

It kind of honestly doesn't make a difference how good he is without any WRs or O-line

I'm not a Bears fan and Hate Jay Cutler but I have to defend this move.

O Line? Bears are getting Orlando Pace. WR? Bears are likely to get Torry Holt. Yeah sure they would matter 3 years ago but in the division that the Bears are in now they're basically made.

Nah, Green Bay will take it pretty easily

Aaron whatshisname has had a full year now to play with his team. Cutler will have to spend a year adjusting to Chicago. Chicago is a run-first team and should continue to be for next year. If they immediately try to switch to a passing team for next year, don't expect them to make the playoffs, or even break .500

*snickers*

The fact that the Bears are a run first team means nothing. Do you even remember where Cutler was? He played for Shanahan. You know that guy who turned nobodies into 1000 yrd Running backs? Cutler has all summer and fall to get used to the playbook. The fact that Cutler won't have to throw 50(like last year) a game should be a good thing.

[Buffdog18]

Really?

I was thinking the Lions would pounce on him.

[DoomSong8]

*snickers*
Did you just snicker at the Pack? Not that I mind people not taking them seriously, but they're going to be better than Chicago this year if they get even one good defensive player in the draft, and knowing TT's draft record, it seems likely. Green Bay was much better than the 6-10 record suggested last year.

I've always hated Jay Cutler, I guess I have even more reason to now.

[Renrock]

Crap. That could hurt my fantasy team this year.

[zeldazeppelin]

lol the bears will still mess it up and Green Bay will choke like they did last year.

[LibertineStripes]

Ouch, I was hoping my 'Skins could get him.

[bmaninc]

inb4 a21 i love the 1985 bears

[Apples]

Neither team will amount to anything. Denver is rebuilding and the vaunted Bears defense is aging. Also, Cutler has no weapons besides Hester.

[zeldazeppelin]

Jason > Cutler imo. If the panthers had Jason I would be very happy

[TheDean]

This is really a good move for the Bears and I think Cutler could fit well with their style and add a threat at quarterback. Unfortunately, if they don't flesh out other parts of their offense (namely WR and O-line) this will not help enough to make them real contenders in the league as a whole. In the NFC North, however, it puts them as the favorites in my book.

Aye, but you said it yourself, Denver was a passing team last year

Hester isn't even that great of a receiver...he's just really good at returning punts and kickoffs, so he's generally overrated at the WR spot...I always think of him as Chicago's Ted Ginn Jr

[a21schizoidman]

inb4 a21 i love the 1985 bears

lol, now, we're gonna be talking about the 2009 Chicago Bears!

we just acquired the biggest QB we've gotten since Sid Luckman!

and just minutes later, we picked up Orlando Pace!

now, we can land Maclin in the draft, hope we can have another receiver pick it up, and we'll have a solid offense for the first time since the 40s

[bse523]

Best trade ever for Denver. Mainly since I hate the Broncos (and live there) and LOVE to see them lose. Shanahan was always a pompous ******* and the local media always gave the team too much credit. Cutler sucks and Orton sucks more. I can't wait to start seeing the INTs fly.

[topperharley]

I was thinking the Lions would pounce on him.

I see what you did there...

[a21schizoidman]

I see what you did there...

yeah, their new logo and all might've been a draw to them....

The lion's name is "Bubbles"??? Hahahahahahahahahaha... :D

it was leaked a few weeks ago, lol, i think it looks more pathetic

[Buffdog18]

Packers V. Bears, this should be good.

[a21schizoidman]

Packers V. Bears, this should be good.

Week 1, Bears at green bay, steelers are defending super bowl champs

deja vu?

[HeyRiles]

Packers V. Bears, this should be good.

Week 1? Naw, it'll be a pretty sound victory on the Pack side

[j_dub_rules]

Jay Cutler is such a baby, i'm so glad Tampa didn't trade for him. Enjoy him till he gets his period Bears fans.

[a21schizoidman]

Week 1? Naw, it'll be a pretty sound victory on the Pack side

that's what they said in 2006, we shut them out :D

[ThrobingCane]

I think the Broncos got the better end of the deal.

[a21schizoidman]

I think the Broncos got the better end of the deal.

says the Vikings fan who is wishing they had Cutler instead of INT-Jack

[ThrobingCane]

says the Vikings fan who is wishing they had Cutler instead of INT-Jack

I guess we will wait and see who will be the best. Vikings

[j_dub_rules]

The Broncos did get the better end of the deal though. They can waste those 2 firsts trying to find a new QB, or maybe Orton can develop with McDaniels, who knows.

[a21schizoidman]

I guess we will wait and see who will be the best. Vikings

Who do you guys have left?

And no, i'm not joking.



Our offense:
QB - Jay Cutler
FB - Jason McKie
RB - Matt Forte
WR - Devin Hester
WR - Earl Bennett
WR - Rashied Davis
WR - Brandon Rideu
TE - Greg Olsen
TE - Desmond Clark
T - Chris Williams
G - Josh Beekman
C - Olin Kreutz
G - Roberto Garza
T - Orlando Pace

DE - Alex Brown
DT - Dusty Dvoracek
DT - Tommie Harris
DE - Adewale Ogunleye
LB - Lance Briggs
MLB - Brian Urlacher
LB - Hunter Hillenmeyer
CB - Charles Tillman
CB - Nathan Vasher
CB - Corey Graham
FS - Josh Bullocks
SS - Kevin Payne

P - Brad Maynard

PR - Devin Hester


our D is the weak spot (Urlacher, Harris, Vasher are the weak points)

[a21schizoidman]

draft picks are really hit and miss though, you have to pay a ton of money to a man who has never played in a pro game before, so, basically they sold two huge contracts to the Broncos for untested players who could be huge busts (or giant game-changers)

[cromartie90000]

I have no idea who Jay Cutler is but his name is IMPRINTED on my brain, along with several other random baseball/football/basketball players.

[timmay9]

It doesn't matter anyways, because New England will take it all.

[ThrobingCane]

Who do you guys have left?


Umm... I dont know whos ON the team(for 2009), I dont really follow football that much. I just watch when its on and route for the home town team which happens to be the Vikings, Even if we had the worst team (could be the case) I would still route for them and say they will win it all. Even tho it could be far from the truth

wow

[CCDaDon]

People who say Cutler does not help the bears are just mad Cutler didn't make their team. I'm not even a Bears fan(Go Falcons) but the Bears weak point has always been at the QB position. So why is it that when they get a decent one everyone says "OMG Bad move Yoo So Stupid". I just don't understand at all.

And if it's because of the 1st round picks I think thats the best part about it. Anyone who knows anything about the Bears know that they suck at 1st round picks. So why is it such a big deal that they give up 2? The Bears are in the process of getting Torry Holt. After that they can look for defensive upgrades which will be easy because they are bunches under the cap.

To reply to Cutler being on a pas 1st team last year. It's easier for a QB to go from pass 1st to run 1st then run 1st to pass 1st. Less work for Cutler is a good thing. No one wants him to throw 50 per game like last year.

[ThrobingCane]

oh, so you like the chubs for baseball then

What the Cubs?

No I dont.

[Buffdog18]

What the Cubs?

No I dont.

I'm guessing Sox fan

[HeyRiles]

Yeah I am so upset Miami didn't make a move for him

[Buffdog18]

Yeah I am so upset Miami didn't make a move for him

They'll be fine, Pennington just needs to learn to deal with pressure. :cool:

Dolphins Rule!

I like the cut of your jib sir.

[Hanrahan89]

Cutler will no doubt improve the Bears who were weak at QB. I think they will do well but Cutler to me seems like a guy who will do great in regular season but I don't think he has what it takes to lead a team to a title. The Bears will need someone else to step up come playoffs.

Oh and by the way GO PATRIOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[timmay9]

[Stones_Clash]

i hate the broncos, and as a huge packers fan, i hate the bears, so all in all, i hate jay cutler period. i think in addition to being a whinny brat hes terribly overrated as a quarterback, and i hope my packers pound him into the dust when the season starts...

[a21schizoidman]

I like the cut of your jib sir.

(in a Homer voice) What's a jib?

the line you were looking for was:

Haha, promote that man!

I knew where that was going. Just felt like making the joke make a left turn

[a21schizoidman]

Too bad it was a right turn only lane :)

C - Olin Kreutz

And you think the D is the weak spot? Methinks you need to get your glasses checked.

Now you wanna see an offense...
QB - Aaron Rodgers
RB - Ryan Grant
RB - Brandon Jackson
FB - Korey Hall
WR - Donald Driver
WR - Greg Jennings
WR - James Jones
WR - Jordy Nelson
TE - Donald Lee
TE - Jermichael Finley
T - Chad Clifton
T - Mark Tauscher
G - Daryn Colledge
G - Jason Spitz
C - Scott Wells

Now that's a team where the D is the big weakness ;)

....Well, and the O-line, but baby steps man, baby steps.

[bse523]

You want Offense? The Saints have you all beat. And now they have a D forming to go with it.

[DoomSong8]

Leave your NFC South craziness out of this!

[JoshuaB81285]

Colts forever!

[CCDaDon]

*Snickers uncontrollably*

You say that as if they could beat out the Falcons on a bad day.

[JoshuaB81285]

Haha, man, if the Falcons can get a good D going, they will be one nasty team.

[CCDaDon]

Haha, man, if the Falcons can get a good D going, they will be one nasty team.

Yeah too bad they got rid of Brookings... He was one heluva line backer... Real sad to see him go... Hopefully they make up for it.

Which they did last year.

[Starfleet_Rambo]

My cousin is on suicide watch.

McDaniels is a douche and The Elway is not happy about this trade.

Can the Bears get some new uniforms please? I mean, srsly!

[FloodOne]

I'm so glad he didn't come to Detroit. Cutler is a diva. He may have an arm, but he isn't a leader. When the Bears O-Line gives up 50 sacks and Cutler blows his mouth off, watch the team implode.

Also, I'll take MN in the NFC north. Best D in the division, best runner in the league, mediocre QB.... but MN controls the line, so that equals playoffs...

and, as always, go COLTS!!!!

You'll be hearing plenty of this, this season: "Cutler to Hester! Touchdown!"

[tridentgum0]

Great, here comes 2 more weeks of Cutler talk on ESPN. Just what we need >_>

[tridentgum0]

Can the Bears get some new uniforms please? I mean, srsly!

I'm not a Bears fan, but their uniforms are classic. That would be like painting the White House.

[bse523]

You'll be hearing plenty of this, this season: "Cutler to Hester! Whoops, it's Intercepted!"

There, fixed that for ya.

[Starfleet_Rambo]

I'm not a Bears fan, but their uniforms are classic. That would be like painting the White House.

They need some new tweaks, like the Vikings.

Uniforms improve teams.

Pats change unis, make the SB.

Broncos change, two SBs in a row.

TB changes unis, they stop sucking and win a SB.

[DoomSong8]

Are there actually people that still think Hester can save that team on offense?

[Starfleet_Rambo]

Not save it, but run deep, catch dat.

Cutler has the cannon Rex and Kyle lacked.

[JoshuaB81285]

To be fair, Grossman actually could throw the deep ball, just his receivers couldn't catch it ^_^

[a21schizoidman]

this, Grossman had a great arm, he just had receivers who decided to not catch

hell no

[CCDaDon]

Bears have a chance of getting Plaxico Burress now.

[a21schizoidman]

i'd rather they went after Torry Holt

[DoomSong8]

Are there actual people that don't think Hester could be a decent WR after last year?
*raises hand* Hester has proven nothing to me, except that by adding to his workload the Bears neutered the best weapon they had. The Bears still have a long way to go before doing anything impressive as far as I'm concerned.

[topperharley]

Cutler has the cannon Rex and Kyle lacked.

You're saying the Sex Cannon didn't have an arm? :D


Are there actual people that don't think Hester could be a decent WR after last year?

key word: decent

[Buffdog18]

Anyone who hates the Patriots or Bears, raise your hand

*Raises hand*

[HeyRiles]

Are there actual people that don't think Hester could be a decent WR after last year?

He is a very good kick returner, nothing more. He is a running back in a corner's body, and he would suffer multiple injuries if he tried RB, so he's pretty much stuck with WR as his position. Problem is, he runs poor routes and has a case of the dropsies thanks to his stone hands. All he can do is run, run, run and pick the right hole.

He just can't really contribute to the offense. Same problem Ted Ginn Jr has in Miami


Anyone who hates the Patriots or Bears, raise your hand

Aye

[FloodOne]

Aye!!!

in 2006 my favs, the Colts, beat the Pats and then the Bears. It was 2 weeks of awesome.

[DoomSong8]

Anyone who hates the Patriots or Bears, raise your hand

*Raises hand*
Packer fan, I'm supposed to hate the latter.

[CCDaDon]

Aye to both!

[Starfleet_Rambo]

I like Cutler, so now I lightly cheer for da Bears.

I have many teams of interest. They're ranked.

[Buffdog18]

Packer fan, I'm supposed to hate the latter.

So you are a Packer fan, or you hate the Packers?

[DoomSong8]

I am one, sorry for the confusion. I'm a lazy typer sometimes.

[Buffdog18]

Yes, a fellow Packer fan!
