I have seen breakdown of film on NFL Network or espn of Cutler missing a route or throwing too late. He has things he can get better at, I hope for our sake he does get better and i Hope this system puts him in the best situation possible. Adding a Pro Bowl OG will make the entire oline better which makes the whole offense better which makes the whole team better. For me this is not just about Cutler but improving the entire team.

Yes, Cutler. Exactly why you want this PRO BOWL OG on our team. Cutler has shown that when he has time and is not running for his life he can be a good QB. He can be a good QB with flashes of greatness if he has time.

My buddy lived in the same building as Cutler when he first was traded. Says he met Jay Cutler numerous times and he was always a dick. Who knows maybe he is alright, but I have heard many times he is a dick.

Many would be happy with Cutler living in Nashville permanently now!! lol

I would love to see a modern alternate, I like the throw back but they have used that for 3 or 4 seasons now. Change it up a little bit. Keep the regular uniform, although I would love to see the Blue on Blue again.

Didn't his brother just sign a new deal last year??? They tried to get him to sign here and the chose to go back to the Seahawks for less money than what the Bears were offering.

Some people never learn. Sad the guy was given a 2nd chance and shits all over it. Hey, the Bears did their research and felt he was not guilty of the first two situations, told him what the expected from him and he didnt follow it. They did the right thing by releasing him.

The only thing I can think of is that he prefers a softer ball. I actually like a harder football, i tend to throw better spirals with a more inflated ball. Im just throwing idea's out there, but maybe he throws a tighter spiral or looser spiral with a softer ball, only speculating. Some WR's like catching Peyton Manning type passes better then A Rodger laser beam throws. So Im just throwing both ideas out there. I guess I would compare it to certain players like longer spikes while others like shorter. Does one make the other guy better or faster??? I dont know, I dont think so. It doesn't mean he throws a better ball though. He clearly can make any throw with any ball. If you watch Peyton Manning throw a football a lot of times they are not tight spirals, but they are dead nuts on the money tho. Anyone that wants to argue that Tom Brady performance changes with a 12.5 ball compared to a 11.5 ball clearly missed the 2nd half of the Colts game and SB. I only use those two games because we know that the balls where off in the first half and Im pretty sure the balls used in the 2nd half and SB where perfectly inflated. Regardless of everything I just wrote, the Pats broke the rule and deserve to get punished. For all you guys that are on the side that Tom Brady sees some type of performance lift by underinflated footballs why can no one explain why his performance in the SB did not suffer because he used a 12.5 psi ball????? In the biggest game of the year, the most pressure packed game a qb will play,Tom Brady had to throw a 12.5 pound ball and he still did what Tom Brady has been doing ever since he started in the NFL.

Sorry, it was 3 out of 4 that were under the 12.5 psi. Page 73 of the Wells report.

Answer me this, if the deflated ball created an advantage for Tom Brady why did his performance not suffer in the 2nd half of the Colts game? And why did the Colts performance not get better in the 2nd half with 4 of their balls being under the 12.5 PSI rule (Wells Report)??????

I do not think the PSI affected any outcome of any game. I believe Steroids do, even though there is no statistical data to prove it. I do not believe the GM texting the coaches created any advantage, i think it created a disadvantage. No coach needs the GM telling them what to do. I do believe pumping noise into a stadium will affect the outcome of a game even tho there is data to prove it. Taking Tom Brady's play in the 2nd half of the Colts game and SB proves my point about the change of the outcome of a game when it comes to the PSI of a football. Give Brady a 12.5 PSI football and the outcome of the game will not change vs a 11.5. Take steroids away from Adrian Peterson (if he was on them) and his performance will decline, is there some data out there to prove it.....No. This is all common sense. The Pats broke a rule so they should be punished, we agree on this.

I disagree with what you are saying but lets just say you are right. IF your statement is true Tom Brady should have performed worse in the 2nd half of the Colts and the SB. But he didn't, he performed exactly how Tom Brady will always perform. So please explain why Tom Brady performance did not decline with the 12.5 psi balls?????

You don't think steroids gives a player an advantage over the same player not taking steroids?????????

What the entire post was about had nothing to do with the rule that was broken, only the advantage created not created compared to other rule infractions and advantages gained. I agree with you, they broke a rule they deserve to get punished.

I agree with you, rules were broken. They needed to be punished.

Sorry bro but you lost your argument once you questioned if Steroids gives someone an advantage on game day. Steroids = fact it gives a player an advantage, a big advantage. Football is a game of speed and power, steroids equals stronger and faster players. Tell me how you cant prove that??? Speaker system= fact, it makes it harder for the opposing team to hear GM Text= i dont think it gave them advantage...if anything it made it harder for the coaches to do their jobs, side note why do coaches have their phones on them during a game??? 1 pound of PSI difference.....I dont think it creates an advantage but I can see how others can think it would. Either way TOM BRADY WILL STILL BE TOM BRADY WITH A 12.5 PSI ball. Stick some steroids in Tom and he will be able to run faster, throw harder and farther and recover quicker. Anyone questioning if the Super Bowl footballs used had 12.5 PSI???????

Here is new one that came out today......Looks like the NFL may have asked the Pats to suspend them. http://finance.yahoo.com/news/theres-story...-135458009.html I read somewhere the NFL and Pats are in talks about the penalty put on the Team Draft picks and money. So I guess Tom brady and NFLPA are fighting the 4 games and The Pats are talking with the NFL about getting the penalty lowered.

Just pointing out that its not being said by Gase. The people suggesting this are reporters. Martz ran his own system, Gase has taken pieces from it but has also taken pieces from other systems. I'm pretty sure Gase has studied under the West Coast, Martz (Air Coryell) and one other one. After spend the last three years with Peyton Im sure he has picked up new things as well. Is Cutler Manning, NO but I am hoping to see a well put together game plan and scheme that puts everyone in the best position to win. If Gase thinks that means limiting Cutlers decision making duties, then great.

Goodell seems to want to screw this up even more. In a press release, Goodell is quoted as saying, "We reached these decisions after extensive discussion with Troy Vincent and many others." How can he appoint himself as the neutral arbitrator, he helped come up with the penalty??? The NFLPA wants Goodell to testify as well. Just appoint someone else to oversee the appeal process, unless they want this to go to court. Maybe they want this to go to court. If Im Roger I want this issue to go away as fast as possible. Lets get back to talking about football not this topic.

Here is the article about the Martzist comment http://espn.go.com/blog/chicago-bears/post...h-qb-jay-cutler No where in there does it imply that Cutler will have less control. I think they are implying some of the same concepts Martz ran Gase will run. It has been stated that Gase has pulled a little from each guy he has worked with. At this point in his coaching career Gase will have his own scheme. I hope they do take a page out of what Dallas did last year, run the shit out of the ball. The only difference is Dallas spent 3 first round draft picks the past 3 years beefing up the oline. The Bears brought in Long and now a 3rd round center, so they have beefed up the oline the big question marks will the oline unit be better than last year. The Bears have Forte, hopefully the oline can give him some running lanes.

I really like getting a guy from the Ravens. 15 years of scouting for a team that is always one of the better drafting teams. Bringing in a guy that has seen how the Ravens do what they do will pay dividends. I really like what Pace has done overall. Do I agree with everything he has done, no but overall I am really happy with the big picture. Did Ernie help get Fox in the door, yes but Pace still had to sell Fox on teaming together to do this. Fox would not have taken the job had Pace not convinced him where he wanted to go with the Bears. Pace has not tried to be smarter than everyone else with draft picks. He hired an experienced coach and then they were able to form a really good staff. Now its time to let the Coaches see what they got as far as talent and scheme around that to put the Bears in the best chance to win. Right now Pace/ Fox and company have my trust!!!!

Dan Bazuin 2nd rounder that I'm not even sure ever played a down. I played at CMU too. Hoped he turned out.

I know that I have been a Cutler backer but last year how much does the Offenses struggles relate back to Trestman? He lost control of the entire team or at least the majority of the team and called some of the worst games I have ever seen. How many weeks in a row did he come in on Monday and Tuesday saying the Bears need a better balance of run to pass and then would never run the ball? I am done backing Cutler, I still hope that they figure out a way to limit his TO's. If they figure that out Cutler will be good QB for us. With all the holes still left on the Bears roster when it comes to talent I am hoping Cutler proves serviceable, creating one less NEED. They still need to find a qb of the future tho as Cutler is now 31 or 32.

Ha

I think its pathetic to think the Pats win by cheating. I think it's pathetic if you think the PSI in a ball helped them win. If this was the Bears 99.9% of us would be screaming this penalty is too harsh. You don't have to admit it, but you know deep down I'm right. Where did I say that if it was the Bears it would excuse it???? I didn't. And where did I say "yeah the Bears cheated, so what"???? I didn't say that, I haven't said that about the Pats. I have only said that the penalty is too harsh.
