Ugh, a Bears fan.  Let me tell you how your season is going to go.  Hand off to Forte, 1 yd gain.  Pass to Forte in the flat, 3 yd gain.  Pass to Olson, 5 yd gain.  Punt.  Rinse and repeat.  Occasional incomplete bomb to Hester thrown in.

  I don't know if you live under a rock, but they did trade for Jay Cutler. They will probably still be 8-8, but Cutler slings it around. That Bears offense you described perfectly under Kyle Orton will change.

You think Cutler is a baby ? Way to have an original thought. /That is like you being a top producer and some new manager comes in from another firm and wants to replace you with one of his guys who is older and not nearly as good. I am sure you would say, "Ok, Mr. New Boss, I am a team player, I will do whatever you feel is best for the team." - Give me a break.

How do you know Poutler is better in McDaniels system?  Seems to me a professional head coach would know better than you or I.  I cannot seem to remember Manning or Brady ever being on the trading block.  Kind of made me wonder.  As far as calling him Poutler, it was more due to him refusing to return phone calls like a spiteful teenage girl.

  Not enough speed, and doesn't break enough tackles for a big back.  He'll hang around the League for a few years with little meaningful impact.

[/quote]  McDaniels System ? What system is that ? It isn't a system, it is superior talent in a crap division. He has Belicheck, Brady, Moss, and Welker. He has never been a head coach at any level. I wouldn't have returned phone calls from that coat tail riding clown either.
May 21, 2009 2:41 pm

I agree… How did the other Belicheck disciples work out? Fat boy at Notre Dame? Romeo Crennel? Mangini…



That was like when Scott Linehan was deemed a master offensive coordinator when he was with the vikings for 3 season(and by the way they had Moss, Culpepper, and Carter)… Anyone who has moss has the easiest job in the world… Run 30 yards down field and I will just throw the ball and you jump up and get it.

May 21, 2009 5:41 pm

Exactly, and Brian Billick before him. It doesn’t take a genius to tell Moss to run deep and have Carter or Welker work single coverage underneath. Billick then went to the Ravens and couldn’t do anything with the offense.

  And what were they saying about Belicheck after his first job?  I am not saying that McDaniels is a genius or even going to be a good coach, what I am saying is that his playbook may require a different skill set than Poutler has, therefore bringing in a QB he was familiar with isn't the end of the world, cry in the corner, refuse to answer the phone crisis Poutler made it out to be.

He met with McDaniels face to face twice ! And Charlie Weis Jr. lied right to his face. Cutler said that is it, Im out, trade me. The entire he said she said crap was coming from McDaniels anyways. Cutler wasn't talking about it in the press and because of that McDaniels was covering his ass by starting these rumors that you have obviously bought into.

May 22, 2009 12:32 am

If I’m going to give up a draft and my starting QB, I would want a leader back who can deal with adversity.   Similar to the way Jason Campbell has handled himself.

May 22, 2009 3:33 am

Kyle Orton sucks and unproven 1st Rd picks aren't worth a proven performer at the most important position. Having your owner fire a Hall of Fame coach and hire Coach Coat Tails who then immediately tries to get rid of you isn't adversity, its insanity. Jason Campbell ? He has to deal with being thrown under the bus, BECAUSE HE SUCKS !!!!
