That has happened over a season of games a total of ZERO times in his career. Every single year in his career, he's thrown more TDs than Ints. I don't know where that perception comes from.
He throws a lot of Ints but he still throws more TDs than Ints.
Yes, nearly every QB in the NFL does, the ratio is what matters.
And no, there isn't just as much of a chance he gets hurt. The guy has played 15+ games in every regular season but two in his career.(discounting his rookie year)
You're right, but he has had a rough last several years after taking all those sacks behind those terrible o-lines, so it's kind of hard to just forget about that, as it is with Sam.
Cutler doesn't need to be fixed to be valuable to us. He's not ever going to be Aaron Rodgers. He's not ever going to be the guy his physical tools allow him to be. He is what he is. He's an average starting QB. But so is Carson Palmer and yet Arizona did EXTREMELY well with Palmer this year.
Yeah, that sure has worked great....? He's been out for more than half the season! Last year he wasn't anything special, had a good defense, and the Cards still missed the playoffs.
With our defense, we don't need anything more than an average QB to contend. Especially if our OL is improved which allows our running game to do more damage.
We need, at the very least, a game manager that can stay level headed and make a few plays here and there. Cutler isn't that.
I looked. He did about the same thing he's doing now...except the team won because they had a good defense.
They didn't really win much, he has about a .500 winning record and won what, one playoff game?
Cutler will solve a problem here...a big one. The QB position problem. He will not elevate this team but he will allow the team to achieve what it can achieve. The team this year is a playoff caliber team. We underachieved because of the QB position. That would not happen with Cutler. And that's not because I think Cutler is great. It's because I think he's adequate.
To put it simply in my own opinion, if Cutler is only the average QB we all say he is, how is he going to solve any problem? He might be average but if he couldn't do anything with the Bears who were a better overall team (in the past) in that weak division for so many years, why would he be any better here? I simply don't get it.
Where do people get some of this stuff? The Rams have actually given up 7 fewer sacks against vastly superior defense units on the whole all season. And that's with turnstill Joseph, rookie GRob, and an over the hill Wells. And Joseph, BTW, who has had Barks playing worse this year than he should be.
I'm not saying the Rams O-Line is bad, I actually think they're pretty good. I'm saying the Bears is probably about the same, if not slightly better. The fact that we've given up 7 fewer sacks speaks to the fact that Cutler is bad at avoiding pressure. But the bottom line is that the Rams O-Line still needs work.
How could he possibly be any worse?
I don't think you've followed the Bears the last 6 years. If you had you would understand man. Last offseason all the die hard bears fans I knew swore that the Cutler signing was good/great or adequate, "There's no better option!" "Who else could we go with who is better?!?" they all said. Now its the exact opposite, "I'm done with him" "I've given up." I don't know about you, but I don't want to deal with that personally, and it's just one of those things that's too easy for me to see coming.
Cutler has been in the league for long enough to establish himself. He's done so, and he's known as being a heart breaker.
To wrap it up with a bit of humor, I've got to post this. I know it's ESPN and they're pretty much a joke, but this is still relatively funny and true:
