How would you compare Trubisky last year to Cutler?

[bearmick]

What highs are you speaking of?

TBH, I can only recall two games in which Cutler tried to lead his team to victory. Once was against the Lions where he took a beating but ended up winning the game. The other was against the Saints where the whole team played terrible and Cutler was the only guy doing anything, but the Bears comeback fell short.

I've never seen a QB start for so long and be so consistently inconsequential to the team winning games. Cutler was like Jay Fielder with a big contract.

I remember that game at the Lions (night game I think) where Cutler was the only guy who showed up and they lost, but he took a serious beating and balled out.

The other one was against the jets in 2010. Cold game at home where they won 38-31 or something like that. Sanchez kept scoring and Cutler kept responding. Think he had two or three TDs to Knox in that game.

I think their kinda similar to this point both somewhat of a disappointment, but the arrival of Matt Nagy really can't be understated. I think the Bears may be one of the best coached teams in the league right now, which was not the case during cutlers tenure. Mitch is in a perfect situation, let's see if he can capitalize.

This. I think Nagy is the perfect coach for Trubisky, and I think Trubisky would be a bottom third starter on most teams. Here he has a shot at being a top half starter.

There was the Chargers game he hurt his thumb, Eagles game vs Vick when they were the hottest team in NFL, Seahawks playoff game.

Yeah.

Still not much over an eight year span though. Terrible underachiever was Jay.

I'll never give @PrideisBears the satisfaction of getting embroiled in a debate where I'm going to bat for Cutler, so I'm not getting deep into this one.

Agreed that Trubisky is the better option because he has already shown that he wants to and has gotten better, and is more likely to continue to improve than Cutler ever was.

Cutler had far more natural talent when it comes to throwing footballs though.

Lol im out of Cutler debates for now on

A Flacons game too where Cutler took a huge hit on a sack and came back to light them up. Can't remember what year that was

I would never compare J-Cut to M-Turb

Coachable vs uncoachable

 

[bearmick]

Coachable and not greatly talented beats highly talented but completely uncoachable and uninterested, I suppose.

 

[Kazu2324]

The Seahawks playoff win where he threw 2 TDs and ran for another 2 was up there, but that's about it. Most of his most memorable games are when he told Martz to go fuck himself, 9 sacks vs. the Giants and then concussion, 4 INTs vs. Hall, etc.

I will say though that maybe the 2011 season when we were 7-3 before he injured himself trying to tackle the defender on another INT, he was playing pretty well beforehand. I remember thinking maybe this is the Cutler we will see from now on. Then he hurt himself and then reverted back to his old self.

Out of Cutler’s eight years with the team, how many seasons did Cutler have that you would say were better than Trubisky last year?

None.

Do you think Cutler will be reppin' the Bears, Broncos, or Dolphins when he gets inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame? Or perhaps the Packers? #Trollface

Rex
Mitch
Jay

Mitch’s blood seems to have a better relationship with sugar. I believe that was Cutler’s downfall.
