Jay Cutler is a gazillion times better than the backup is the problem. McCown did do great in the Trestman system. Alas, Marc Trestman and staff are gone. His age and health were a big concern when it came time to resign him. We aren't talking about someone that can fill in for a year until someone else comes along. Cutler is on the books until 2020 and the Bears keep playing themselves out of picks to get better through the draft. Not that there is a QB to be had in the draft. You won't find many a Bears fan that want to keep Smokin Jay any longer than necessary. At this point the defense is more of a concern.Virginia Halas McCaskey owns the Bears. Her son and chairman George McCaskey has the juice when it comes to the big decisions. Everything else is done by the GM Ryan Pace. They really don't have a choice since Smokin Jay has such a big contract. There isn't anyone else to play or sign. Barring some sort of trade or big name free agent, he will likely be the QB next year. It has nothing to do with "special connections" or the McCaskey's non existent relationship with a concrete layer from southern Indiana.Indeed.Cutler obviously has special connections to the owner of the Bears.His father must have been like a close friend of his or something.there are rookie quarterbacks that play better than him yet he keeps his job year after year.Because they beat Jay Cutler and the Bears? Oh God, I just threw up in my mouth a little bit...time to be positive
He is a coach killer.You can bring in Bill Parcells who in modern times i would say is the greatest coach of all time and he would end up getting fired having to be forced to play cutler every week like this owner is forcing every coach to play him.
He is the same as jerry jones of the cowboys.He wants to run the team and not let the coach coach it.He fires coach after coach when Culter is the problem,not the coach.
The thing is there have been many other teams in the past who had a starting quarterback who had a huge contract and they did not care,they benched him and kept their backup as the starter for the year.
The owner clearly doesnt care about winning.If he did,he would eat his mistake and keep him on the bench and find someone else to take over.
Josh Mccown took over for Cutler when he got hurt a couple of years ago and was out for like 5 games and the offense was scoring much more than they were than when Cutler was in. Cutler when he got healthy,was put back in as the starter and many Bear fans were angered over it wanting Mccown to remain the starter rightly so. Since Mccown had outshined Cutler,they got rid of him naturally.lol
If I lived in chicago and grew up a Bears fan,they would not get another penny from me till they got rid of Cutler.
i thought i heard his contract was up after the 2016 season?
if they keep him around till the 2020 season i for sure will be convinced he has special connections to them.anybody other than cutler would be an improvement for them.
