Week 10: Bears @ 49ers (Thurs, 7:20 PM NFLN, WPWR)

God this offense is woeful. Three INT's by opposing QB and one scoring drive? Smith seems to always get 8-9 of the 10 yards. He is 14 of 19 and Gore hasn't been horrible but yet we can't move the ball.

Man you guys are bad. He has a bad game and you guys are foaming at the mouth. Get over it. Orton is as bad as people thought and Cutler isn't as good. That's not to say Cutler and Orton are equally good but stop trashing Orton every chance you get and stop talking up Cutler when he is obviously struggling mightily.

That's not a fair comparison and you know it.

 

Orton has better receivers and a better o-line. Cutler has a pretty mediocre group of WR's playing pretty well. Yes, he's made his share of mistakes, but the fact remains.

 

I don't disagree with what you wrote but it has nothing to do with what I said. I said Orton is better than what you guys thought when he was traded and Cutler is worse.

 

Orton is exactly the player I expected him to be. Makes smart throws much of the time, has decent accuracy inside 50 yards, cannot throw the long ball, cannot take over the game and lead a team to victory against above average defenses. I've been pointing out all year how well Orton played before his injury last year, and I know I'm not the only Bears fan. Also, put any QB on a team with a halfway decent O-Line and receivers and you will see a decent QB.

Cutler won two games Kyle wouldn't have, but lost two Kyle wouldn't have.

 

Hard to say that with Kyle's last outing, isn't it?

Whatever do you mean, Orton doesn't make mistakes, he's a game manager, he just knows how to win. Despite any evidence to the contrary.

Except I never said Orton was bad. I simply said that his last game calls into question the statement that Wilson made, which is that Orton would win 2 of the games Cutler lost. That's simply not a for sure thing.

Couldn't ask for a better opportunity to score. Seriously. Any team with an ounce of pride would do something here.

I'm with you guys on the latter. I thought Cutler was great and sided with him on the whole debacle of an offseason for Denver (why be somewhere you're not wanted). However he is proving to be a gunslinger who never learned to not force it all the time because he got away with it with the WR's he had in Denver. He is still a very good QB but unless he adjusts isn't the great pre-annual pro bowler most thought he was (and Orton is the scrub most thought).

 

Jesus Christ. The O-Line is terrible and there's no running game. Stop underestimating what kind of impact that has on a passing game.

 

Dude, the QB is the only one responsible for his performance.

And Turner comes out with two runs up the gut. Awesome.

Stop ignoring how many INT's Cutler is throwing. A bad o-line and run game doesn't mean you throw more picks than anyone else in the league. He hasn't learned to throw it away or take the sack instead of forcing it and getting a turnover. That is one of the most important things to learn. And as I write he does it again.

And again, picks aren't always on the QB. Just like that one wasn't. Jesus christ.

There are always excuses as to why he throws the INT, but the bottom line is he's making dangerous throws constantly and he's getting burned badly tonight on there.
