Former Bears coaching staff knock Cutler

Post by dead_poet »

Jay Cutler - QB - Bears

"At least ten" former members of the Lovie Smith and Marc Trestman coaching staffs told ESPN Chicago the Bears "can't consistently compete for championships" with Jay Cutler as the quarterback.

Two Bears teammates also said they consider Cutler "a divisive figure with whom they'd rather not continue to play." Beat writer Michael C. Wright still expects the Bears to give Cutler "one last shot," something his contract almost requires they do. It's no secret Cutler essentially sabotaged Trestman's offense, refusing to operate within the confines of the system. When asked about his willingness to adhere to any offensive structure, several ex-Bears coaches used the terms "renegade" and "rogue" to describe Cutler's play.
“Some people think football is a matter of life and death. I assure you, it's much more serious than that.” --- Bill Shankly

How soon they forget what it was like before Cutler...specifically the QB carousel that went round and round for years. Maybe they can find a coach who can operate his offense around Cutler more instead of trying to force him to be something he's not?
