Lovie is now failing at all 3 goals he set during his first press conference.

 

New goals:

 

1. Limit opponents to under 40 points a game

2. Stick with screen passes on 3rd and long

3. If Rex Grossman is your QB, make sure you answer every question in postgame interview with 'Rex is our QB'. If Rex Grossman isn't your QB, talk nonstop about how much football there is left, discuss how much better of a football team you are than you've shown, and maybe talk about how you break the season down into quarters and give a brief recap how these quarters have gone throughout the season

 

OK, most of those aren't really goals as much as they are stupid things Lovie keeps doing that annoy me.

Give Cutler an o-line and some receivers and we'll see how he does.

 

I'm sure he'll be better but will he still be forcing stupid passes all the time? Probably.

 

A la Favre. Works for me.

 

Except much less accurate from what I've seen from Cutler this year. Even when he's going well he's underthrowing and overthrowing people all the time.

Actually Cutler's accuracy is pretty close to Brett Favre's at the same point in their careers, if not slightly better.

I don't think we can gauge much of anything about him from this year given how bad the team is. Cutler has sucked hard this year, but it's not like we can determine that this is the "real Cutler" when he's on a team that fails on every possible level. About the only conclusion we can take right now is that Jay Cutler will suck on a sucky team.

Well that's good to know, because that's one of the things about Cutler that really shocked me. Even the passes he completes receivers are leaping or lunging to catch. No one talks about it outside the INTs but I notice that crap all the time and it mpisses me off.

I think we can pretty accurately gauge that Cutler has many, gigantic flaws in his game that need to be rectified if he's going to be any good. Cutler was good, NOT great in Denver, with amazing offensive talent around him. And now he's terrible with terrible talent around him.

We could really take that 4th phase thing to a new level by picking a fan out of the crowd to be the OC for the 2nd half.

I'd be overjoyed with good, not great.

 

Besides, who the [expletive] is going to "rectify" anything with him? This is a team that approaches offenses like it's still 1957.

We don't have the resources or the FO competence to get Denver's Oline or Marshall/Royal.
