Week 15: Bears (7-6) @ Browns (4-9) Noon, FOX

[Sammy Sofa]

McCown has done an admirable job and nothing should be taken away from what he's done but the fact is, Cutler is the better quarterback. With Cutler, we probably don't lose the Rams and Vikings games because McCown wasn't able to convert in the red zone. He might have had good games on paper, but he didn't play particularly well in those games.

 

McCown not as good in the red zone? He's THROWN FOR THE SAME AMOUNT OF TOUCHDOWNS IN 3 LESS STARTS. Let's not go off the rails here. I don't know why the Bears lost to the Rams but it wasn't McCown's fault.

 

and I already said that Cutler should start. But what McCown did in his stead was certainly more than "cromulent"

 

"3 less starts" is some pretty loaded language given the amount of time he's actually played. You're ultimately talking Cutler having played, what, 6 more quarters?

 

Everyone's happy with what he did, but some of us aren't letting a beast game against the league's worst defense skew the perspective. Cutler's the better QB and it's not like he wasn't also having success with the new offense before he was injured. If he's not hurt I want him in there and I'm more confident in his ability to offset the defensive liabilities.

Cutler: "Josh played really good last game, but he's made his mistakes too and throws he would like to have back." The man can't stop himself. So jealous that he hasn't been close to McCown's production.

This is sarcasm, right?

How would you interpret Jay's comments?

DONNNNNN'T CAARRRRRREEEEE

"No disrespect to (backup) Josh McCown, but Jay Cutler is a different monster, and we're definitely going to be prepared for him,'' said Cleveland Browns safety Tashaun Gipson, per The Plain Dealer. "Anytime you're dealing with who I perceive is one of the more elite quarterbacks in this game -- Cutler, he's arguably a top-10 quarterback in this game -- I think that amplifies the situation.''

Yep, build him up like he's Josh McCown or something Edited December 13, 2013 by Wilson A2000

MCCOWN VERSUS DITKA IN ARM WRESTLING MATCH, WHO WINS????

Lmfao.

McCown's "Wonderboy" gloves prevented those 3 interceptions from being caught by Cowboys defenders. Ergo, they weren't "mistakes".

 

This fanbase almost doesn't deserve nice things.

He has the gift if the second sight and he threw those knowing they would not hold up, tricking the foolish into thinking he was just a mortal instead of a god.

He had two bad passes. You can't hold Marshall and get in a position to make an interception and then say that was a bad throw. But yeah he had two bad passes.

What about the bad throw that ruined their opportunity to win in MIN with a wide open receiver who was only able to gain yard, forcing a 700 yard field goal attempt?

[Sammy Sofa]

Wilson, I'm honestly curious...do you want the Bears to let Cutler go and stick with McCown next year? If so, do you view him only as a short term "bandage" option or do you think by some miracle Trestman has laid hands upon him and he's figured it all out at 34?

And his idiot play against Minnesota that cost us the game. Lets not forget that. Because that was as dumb a decision as you'll ever see. Was that not a "mistake", but a clever ploy to get Kyle Long a reception? Nor his inability to throw a TD in the red zone unless his receiver has nobody within 5 yards of him.

 

And yet, when Cutler has good passes bobbled by Earl Bennett or deflected on a fluke and picked off, it's his fault.

It's not Earl's fault that Jay throws too hard while McCown gently places the ball in his receivers' hands.

That was a cunning stratagem by Roy McCown. You're mistaken.

Yup, just two bad passes. All those other games where they couldn't punch it into the endzone? Totally on everyone else.

I heard Jay spits on the ball before he throws it and then laughs about it.

I heard he reminds everyone in the huddle that he's rich and married to a quasi-model before calling the play.

Bunch of stans in literal hysterics

[bukie]

I had someone try to argue with me that Jay was a worse QB than McCown because he throws the ball "too well" to be caught. McCown is a better option because his lame duck throws give the receivers the opportunity to outjump/wrestle the ball from the opposing DBs.
