Conclusion: There is genuine disbelief inside #Bears' locker room that Cutler got benched & Aaron Kromer only received slap on the wrist.

Say what you will about Cutler, but the punishments are viewed as extraordinarily inconsistent.

I actually would really like to feel sorry for him, but every time I’m ready to go there he finds a way to make things worse.
Assuming ESPN’s Adam Shefter's report is true that Jimmy Clausen will replace Jay Cutler as the Bears starting quarterback this Sunday vs. the Lions, it has to be the final stake in the hearts of the general manager and head coaching careers of Phil Emery and Marc Trestman with the Bears.
What are they doing now?
Is there anyone out there who actually believes the Bears would have performed better last Monday night if Clausen had been under center?
Does anyone really believe Clausen has a future as the starting quarterback of the Bears?
Is there some misguided perception at Halas Hall that players, coaches and fans will somehow be satiated or even pleased by the punishment and public shaming of Cutler?
What I heard from the majority of Bears players over the past week was anger over the way their quarterback was outed and treated by his coach and the organization in the Aaron Kromer fiasco. Now, those same players are finding out that Cutler has been benched from more leaks to the national media. It is hard for me to accept that this is the smartest move in light of last week's reaction.
But Trestman gave absolutely no indication Cutler would be benched, and seemed to indicate the opposite when asked to comment on Jon Gruden’s suggestion that he should have gone to Clausen Monday night.
