Well, since this thread has been necro'd. It was reported that at least two candidates up for the HC job when Emery was hiring said that they would not take the job if Cutler had to be their QB, and that one went so far as to tell Emery this during the interview which resulted in his name being scratched off the list immediately.
With Toubs comments about Cutler after his departure I cant help but wonder if it was him. Sure, recently he called Cutler a "good asset to have" but maybe thats because he knows he and Ballard are going to be shopping cutler around very soon.
