It's beyond me why people loathe the Bears starting quarterback so much. OK, I understand why people in Denver hate him. He demanded the Broncos trade him. Fans don't like that. I get it.
However, there are plenty of idiots out there talking about what a "pussy" Cutler supposedly is.
If you watched the Bears get humilated on national television Monday night, you know Cutler takes a pop in the mouth pretty much every time he drops back to pass. I'm surprised he still gets up. Hell, I'm surprised he doesn't just retire instead of playing behind the sad-sack offensive line the Bears are trotting out there on a weekly basis. A weaker man probably would.
The Bears offensive tackles -- J'Marcus Webb and Frank Omiyale -- ought to be ashamed of their performance Monday night. They aren't fit to play in the Arena League. Nine false stars, including six in the first half and three on one drive? What the hell is that? What a disgrace.
You want to know who on the Bears' roster is actually soft? Their wide receivers. Not one of these guys can get off a jam. None of them have the stones to fight for a ball in traffic. They hear footsteps. They get the dropsies. Their route running is awful. Receivers coach Darryl Drake wants fans to "show them love." He can forget it.
How come the Cheeseheads up north don't mock the Bears wide receivers? Or the offensive line? Those two position groups deserve every ounce of criticism that is thrown their way. They suck. They are soft. They are perhaps the worst in the entire NFL.
Cutler completed 28 of 38 passes for 249 yards in the face of an intense pass rush in Monday's 24-13 loss to the Detroit Lions. I thought he played with a lot of guts.
However, I don't expect anyone besides me to give him any credit for it. The quarterback continues to not be the problem here, folks. It's the offensive line. It's the receivers.
Running back Matt Forte is the Bears' best offensive player. Cutler is second. Nobody else out there seems to have a damn clue.
Uhh. pretty much throughout entire telecast Tirico, Gruden and Jaws were falling over themselves complimenting Cutler and his effort in this game. I don't think you are as alone as you make yourself out to be with that opinion. Packers fans staying on that dumb assertion is just because of the rivalry that will always include stupidity, nothing more. Who cares about that. Bears fans do the same to downplay Rodgers.
I agree. Last night was the first time I've seen the Bears play this season. Their O-line is god awful. I don't know how Forte is able to rack up these big yardage games. Cutler is under pressure EVERY TIME he drops back. I don't think I saw him 'stand in the pocket' the entire game. The Colts O-line gives Painter better protection and everyone besides Saturday are third stringers and playing out of position.
The sad part is Martz still hasn't figured out Cutler is better outside the pocket than in it. His numbers are BETTER when he's on the move. The Martz offense does nothing to take advantage of Cutler's athleticism. The quarterback is a sitting duck back there.
Martz is the kind of coordinator who expects the personnel to fit into his scheme, as opposed to building a scheme that fits the personnel. I wasn't the biggest Greg Olsen fan in the world, but the Bears sent him packing because he couldn't fit into Martz's box.
In addition, the whole notion that Roy Williams would suddenly turn into a legit No. 1 receiver under Martz's tutelage has already been completely debunked. He's terrible. No production to speak of whatsoever. The idea of Williams as a No. 1 wideout is almost as stupid as the preposterous claim that Devin Hester could develop into a No. 1 receiver.

The above column is the latest example of the asinine criticism Cutler gets all the time. He lacks self-control and respect for his teammates for directing an F-bomb at the offensive coordinator? Really. Give me a break. This isn't grade school. It's the NFL.
Hell, every Bears fan in the world has probably directed an F-bomb toward the TV set as a result of Mike Martz' playcalling. Can you blame Cutler? I sure don't.
I would expect better from a veteran reporter like Dan Pompei. After all these years, it's hard to believe he's unaware that emotional, heated words get exchanged all the time on NFL sidelines.
For years, Olin Kreutz was the Bears player who would get in guys' faces, utter F-bombs and generally keep everyone on task. He was praised for his "veteran leadership." Cutler does the same thing, and we have to hear about how he's hurting the feelings of poor, "doe-eyed" Dane Sanzenbacher.
Geez. Must have been a slow news day at Halas Hall.
