Cutler is our qb. By the numbers alone, this injury could help the Bears in the long run by not having to pay him as much. Saying that though, and looking at how Urlacher situation was handled and Cutler being a free agent, it is plausible the Cutler may not be our QB next year, Especially if a team is willing to give Cutler a huge contract the Bears are not willing to to give. It should be Bears #1 priority to keep Cutler, any other scenario, which includes drafting a QB in the first round, will get us a better QB then Cutler period.
