N/S Cutler trade to Bears (mega merge)

[ClayT101]

I think they over paid for Cutler, with his medical condition, you really have to wonder how long he will last

I was screaming in my car as I was driving home and people were looking at me like I was crazy. No need for you guys to comment on that BTW.

I AM A HAPPY MAN TONIGHT TIME FOR SOME WHISKEY

Funny, Same thing happened to me when we signed Drew.

You should be. The people here aren't thinking clearly and most don't like Cutler as a person anyway.

2 1sts and a backup caliber player for a great franchise guy that'll lead you for the next 10 years at least?

The Bears were probably going to spend a 1st on a QB anyway this draft. Obviously they aren't happy with Orton. So for an extra 1st they get a proven guy who's really good instead of a rookie with the 18th pick.

Exactly. You guys have Drew so don't know how it feels to have the QB troubles we have had.

 

[REALCHRISM]

Are you seriously trying to say that Cutler is why they didn't win? Their defense was worse then ours. Does that mean Brees isn't good? Silly logic.



It's not and a 3rd. They got a 3rd in return with Cutler.

Did anyone really think a franchise QB of Cutlers age was getting moved for anything less then 2 1sts?

No, it's not. They get a fifth in return. The Broncos get two first, a third and Orton.

No, he is not the only reason.

Indy's defense was 31st but Peyton still got them to the Superbowl.

No, it doesn't mean Brees isn't good. It does mean he isn't great.

Brees is great. QB's can only control so much.

It took how many years for Peyton to make a superbowl with that crappy defense? I'm glad he finally did it, but it's hardly something to point at as something every good QB should be able to do every year.

Congrats, I didn't know if you ever were going to get a QB.

Are you serious? Drew hasn't been quaterback for us for the past 40 years.

I understand those feelings now and many other bear fans do. I cannnot even get on to our MB.

Some Broncos fans reactions: http://www.cbssports.com/mcc/messages/chrono/14338949



" Maybe we can make Orton our kicker. lol "

" NFL Network:
Denver gets: This year's 1st(18)....next year's first.....this year's 3rd and Kyle Orton......WOW.....
I think I just puked in my mouth!!! "


" OMG. this is horrible.............. Kyle Orton!?.....are you kidding me..........?
wow"

" congrats josh mcdaniels. you now have no defense and no qb. way to go. 2 years at most and you will be gone and you will have set my team back 10 years. thanks alot. "

" WHAT THE FREAK HAS HAPPENED TO THE Broncos OVER THE LAST FEW MONTHS!?????? "

" This is a great trade! What are you guys talking about? What did you expect? "

You should be happy..Cutler is a FRANCHISE QB. The Bears gave a lot..but could you have gotten any player of the same impact this year or next year?? probably not. The Bears still have holes..but they just fixed one of the biggest.

Are you serious?

50 years my friend 50 years....

Well, you're taking me down a road I didn't really want to travel, and that I don't think is as pertinent to this thread. But i'll bite.

It took a while for Peyton to make the SB. But Peyton's team makes the playoffs every year. Drew's doesn't.

I'll admit that I was surprised by the two first and a third (get a fifth back) and Orton. I like Cutler and this is huge for Chicago. Just didn't think it would take that much to get him.

Yep, not to mention Cutler grew up a Bears fan. The town will instantly love this guy and he will not be playing under Elway's shadow.

Culter played at Mile High stadium.

I havent been to Mile High, but I have been to soldier field. Sometimes that wind is blowing there so hard that its hard to function at all. I dont know if its the same in Denver. I know it gets cold, but that win in Chicago is insane.

But this is much better than him going to Tampa or a dome because he will have to battle the weather. Not to say he wont still put up some numbers, cause obviously he has talent, just not the best of conditions.
