Jay Cutler Speaks About Being A Bear

Ok I want to put this puppy to bed, but I just heard this interview on ESPN Radio. The podcast has Bears’ GM, Jerry Angelo, speaking about the process of acquiring Jay Cutler. Then Jay Cutler comes on the show (at the 9:50 mark). One of Cutler’s quotes from the interview:

“I think there’s some things out there that are inaccurate on my end and the Broncos end.  We’re not going to go back and forth with this.  It’s done and over with…a trade’s made and I’m just happy to be a Bear” (Sports Radio Interviews).

Have a listen to the interview.

Cutler’s ego is back to being stroked, and he seems to think he can do great things with the Bears’ young talent. I guarantee he’ll miss Denver’s offensive line and receivers. There’s been enough talk surrounding this thing, so the only thing we can do is wait for the season to start to see who got the better end of the deal.

Donkies,

I will actually miss haveing Cutler for the Bolts to gang tackle. The time has come to offically move our gunsights from Denver to K.C. Regrettably you lost the very little mojo you had (Shannahan and Cutler). The Donkies have joined the ranks of the dysfunctional Raiders, what pity. Now before you go into your yeah but we gotta super bowl crap let me suggest you stop living in the past. You still live in the Elway era on a daily basis (see top left of site). Furhermore DO NO THINK THAT HOCULI ever goes away whenever a ref determines the outcome of a game between division rivals, that is a legacy call much like the Holy Roller or the Tuck rule. I suggest you take the view that the great Dale Carneige took, "have no expectation and you will never be dissapointed" in your case words to live by.

The Stefan Fatsis article- http://fifthdown.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/04/03/stef... -was by far the most complete and insightful article on this whole fiasco and because he was there it carries more weight. I will say that while I liked Cutler as a player I never cared for his punk attitude but his play made me willing to overlook that. But from day one of all this drama I jumped off the Cutler bandwagon. I have felt all along that this drama was Cutler and his agent stirring the pot and they were trying to powerplay the Broncos. After reading Fatsis’ article I know my feelings were right on. Jay and his agent knew when Shannie got fired that a new contract was not going to happen. And if it wasn’t this year it would have been next year we would have had drama over a contract the Broncos weren’t going to pay for. Jay and his agent now have what they want. Chicago is agog over Cutler some are calling him the next Micheal Jordan. And believe it they will pay his price after paying a huge price in draft choices. The Bears now have no choice but to give him what he wants. But for those that think a Super Bowl is a lock for the Bears remember this, the Bears are old on defense, lacking in talent on offense, especially on the line and receivers. And the GM Angelo is a terrible talent evaluator just look at his first round picks the last ten years. And remember that Lovie Smith and Ron Turner are average offensive coaches. So it isn’t a forgone conclusion that it will work out there. The Broncos aren’t going to the Bowl this year or the next, even if Cutler had stayed, as Shannie left the defense in terrible shape. And getting that defense in shape now becomes the priority of the Broncos brain trust. Now I am no fool McDaniel and Xanders are young and raw but how about we all give them a chance to show us what they can do with this bounty of draft picks the next two years. To me this has the potential to be the kind of deal that will make the Broncos a force for the next decade. Now it could all blow up in their faces but I believe in Mr. Bowlen as he is widely regarded as one of the top three or four owners in the NFL and one of the best in all of sports. So he deserves the benefit of a doubt. For all you hysterical whiners and Cutler apologists remember that Jay didn’t want to be here so why waste time soothing his soul and kissing his egotistical butt. Lets move on!
