I am astonished no one has started a topic about this. This is quite huge here. Cutler signed a $126 million contract recently and now he is benched! This is just not something that happens. What I thought when I heard it is what others are saying too. He's benched to prevent him from getting injured so they can trade him.

The Bears are just pitiful.


I can't think of any team that would trade for him, especially with that contract.

I don't dispute that the Bears are pitiful, but I really don't envy them or any team that has to deal with this.

There are few exceptions of teams that can get by w/o an elite QB in this league and it's incredibly hard to find one. Cutler really should be, but the grey matter between the ears is ruining it for him. We're incredibly lucky with the 20+ year streak of QB play we've had and that's arguably the reason we haven't been the Lions and 'Queenies over these years.

He's making about 22 mil this year and I believe 15 mil even if he's not on the roster next year? What a life!

Sucks being the Bears, which makes my day.

2015 he would count 16.5 million against the Bears Cap. If he is traded or cut. That would increase to 19.5 unless they use the June 1st Designation which would still only save them 2 million of that for 2015.

If only we could trade them Flynn for the remainder of the season for a draft pick.
The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Cutler is actually having one of his best years. This is indicative that the issue is more than just Jay. Benching him, releasing him or trading him (which they really can't do until AFTER next season) doesn't solve the problems with the team.

The thing with Cutler is whether or not he is coachable, and nothing in his resume would suggest he his.

How desperate could a team possibly be to trade for a head case like him with a contract like that?

This is the WORST news for the packers to date this year and next!

What do our DBs say? - they love catching the ball when cutler is at the helm.

Can't help but wonder if Cutler ends up on the injury report, with splinters in his butt.[grin1]

dfosterf (30-Jan) : So eeri
Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Now that's a thought, maybe they're looking at the college ranks? Maybe not head coaches but DC/assistant DCs with league experience?
beast (30-Jan) : College Coaches wouldn't want that publicly, as it would hurt recruiting and they might not get the job.
beast (30-Jan) : I thought they were supposed to publicly announce them, at least the NFL ones. Hafley was from college, so I believe different rules.
Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Who knows who they're interviewing? I mean, nobody knew about Hafley and then out of nowhere he was hired
beast (30-Jan) : I wonder what's taking so long with hiring a DL coach, 2 of the 3 known to interview have already been hired elsewhere.

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : I forgot, they corrected the call a week later. Lol btw HAPPY BIRTHDAY dhazer!
buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : That brings up the question, why wasn't Nixon down by contact? I think that was the point Kanata was making.
buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : Turnovers rule, win the turnover battle, win the game.
packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : well, he was
TheKanataThrilla (26-Jan) : Eagles down by contact on the fumble....fuck you NFL

Mucky Tundra (26-Jan) : This game looks too big for Washington
packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : that being said, The Ravens are the Browns
packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : Browns, Dolphins have longest AFC Championship droughts
packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : As of today, Cowboys have longest NFC Championship drought,
beast (26-Jan) : Someone pointed out, with Raiders hiring Carroll, the division games between Carroll and Jim Harbaugh are back on (who can whine more games)
beast (26-Jan) : I'm confused, Pete Carroll and Brian Schottenheimer? When Todd Monken, Joe Brady, Kellen Moore, Kliff Kingsbury and Zac Robinson are availab
Zero2Cool (25-Jan) : Any reason I'm catching a shot here about my intelligence?
Martha Careful (25-Jan) : thank you Mucky for sticking up for me
Martha Careful (25-Jan) : some of those people are smarter than you zero. However Pete Carroll is not
Mucky Tundra (24-Jan) : Rude!
beast (24-Jan) : Martha? 😋
Zero2Cool (24-Jan) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.
dfosterf (24-Jan) : I'm going with a combination of the two.
beast (24-Jan) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC
Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Fake news. Cowboys say no
Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.
beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?
beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season
