I am glad the Bears made that trade.. it has saddled the franchise with a roller coaster for a QB for many years.. the weakest part of Cutlers game is between his ears.. he has the poise of a jack rabbit mainlining caffeine.
Much like McNabb.. will be a yearly tease because of his physical skills only to be let down in the crunch.. they don't have the makeup to be leaders when the caca hits the fan.

This pretty much nails it.
I remember a few picks the other night (at least 2) that can't be pinned SOLEY on Cutler. Hester slipped up on the one pick.. and the other was a tip-drill pick. I gotta believe there were a few more of those types of INTs that Cutler threw.
Now the picks that he threw that were blatent.. I think he just needs more of a offensive line and a REAL WR (not Hester, BTW). I think that would settle him down enough for him to make proper reads/decisions.

I don't know, Hester is coming along quite nicely. With Cutler's arm, he could be something special... if Cutler gets some time in the pocket.
The guy can run, but he has horrible throwing mechanics, especially off the run. He needs an O-line so he can get settled. Or a coach like McCarthy. It's weird that he didn't get all of this sorted out under Shanahan. And it's only getting worse with the Bears, who have no guidance for QBs at all.
My only opinion is Rodgers would have been a disaster had he played right away. The Rodgers from Cal and now are 2 completely diff players. And that's because of McCarthy's coaching.

Makes you wonder what would've happened if Rodgers went to Denver one year earlier and we drafted Cutler.
