As an outside onlooker, it seems that he would have done himself a world of favors if he had at least pretended to hold a clipboard and wore a headset or something. It seems that alot of "rational" (i.e. not the "get yer ass out thur and play!1!" types) people had a problem with the way he kind of just sat there staring out into space the rest of the game. It may have helped his image some if he at the very least pretended to be involved in the game somehow. * don't flame me, I'm not attacking Cutler (he's an SEC guy afterall and you know how we are about our own..)
