The Cutler Den - 4/1/09

Bear_s-den_medium

Note: The Bears Den has officially changed its name to The Cutler Den for today. Save one story, the rest involve Jay Cutler.

In The Den

David Haugh writes on the ongoing saga with Cutler and why the Bears need to get involved.

Brad Biggs does the exact same thing as Haugh.

So does Mike Imrem of the Daily Herald.

In this next installment of "Everyone react to the same story," Kevin Allen of the Sun-Times discusses the same thing everyone else is.

Greg Couch of the Sun-Times comes very close to suggesting fans rise up with pitchforks and go to Halas Hall if we don't get Cutler.

Who's interested in Cutler? Biggs delves into the potential new homes for him.

PFT wonders if Cutler is focusing more on damage control.

On the official Broncos site, Jay Cutler is not on the depth chart and there are no Cutler jerseys for sale.

In the Vicinity of The Den

Mr. Negativity talks about the possibility of signing Orlando Pace. I gotta give it to him: This article does make sense.

Not Even In The Same Universe as The Den

Bridget Moynahan's friends are going after Gisele Bundchen about Tom's kid or something. I didn't read past the first paragraph.

Plaxico's hearing on his gun charge is moved to June.

UPDATE (12:05 PM): Brett Favre has signed a one-year tender with the Ravens.

Bears need Cutler.

I support Orton if this doesn’t go down, but we need to get him. I would be happy with giving the next 2 years 1st round picks and Orton right now for him. I’d even give up the next 3 years 1st round picks, Angelo can’t pick 1st rounders for shit anyway. Let’s make it happen.

3 #1s is not cool with me.

They’re not in the position to be asking for that much. Cutler has shown his immaturity, plus the Broncos only have three weeks to complete a deal. Their leverage is not going to yield that kind of return. The more likely scenario is two number 1s and Orton, or possibly a 2nd if JA brought his negotiating skills to the table.

I will admit tho

that the Cutler story seemed legit.

This was my favorite one:

In Buffalo, newly signed wide receiver Terrell Owens was seen getting into an altercation with Bills quarterback Trent Edwards during a charity Ultimate Frisbee tournament. Onlookers overheard Owens could yelling “Throw me the [expletive] frisbee! I’m open!” while getting really close to Edwards. Owens was later seen throwing popcorn in Edwards’ face before storming out of the facility where the event was being held. Edwards and Owens could not be reached for comment.

I laughed at that one

But more at the Sproles. “Man you just pick up speed on that thing.” Ha. The joke’s on me I guess. Damn April Fools.

Ok I understand he had a gun which was dumb and all but

what are the other issues? He was a beast in the Superbowl.

Trying to find the link from ESPN

There was a story written about how he’s just not responsible off the field, ranging from paying for work done to his house to not showing up to events he scheduled to be at, etc. I’ll keep looking.

I'M A MAN! I'M 22!

by ChiFan13 on Apr 1, 2009 12:48 PM CDT up reply actions  

Exactly...

I read an article too about how he never pays his bills until he gets sued, etc. Not sure if any of that will have a bearing on his football future, because it never went public until all of the other stuff happened.

Yeah ok I understand he has responsibility issues.

I would doubt this gun issue would ’’change’’ him for the better anyways. So I guess it wouldn’t be worth it. To me it’s just really tempting because he has so much talent.

by SoulEater7 on Apr 1, 2009 12:51 PM CDT up reply actions  

Oh, absolutely

I mean, if he could get his act together, I’d LOVE for him to come to Chicago. I’m just not sure if he will or has gotten his act together.

by ChiFan13 on Apr 1, 2009 12:55 PM CDT up reply actions  

Yeah I don't see it either changing him.

But if the Bears could land Cutler I might have to think about it. ’’might’’ maybe just for like a 1 year contract.

I'd be ok with a one-year deal

if the Bears got Cutler.

yeah because if you're going to take a risk with Culter's

divaness then you might as well go all Dallas Cowboys on this.

Cutler is not a diva

He felt disrespected by a 32 year old coach who tried trading him for one of his guys and then lied about it.He felt disrespected by an owner who promised to retain the services of his former coaching staff and was lied to. He’s NOT T.O. he got along with his teammates just fine. how is he suppose to trust this organization if he’s been repeatedly lied to?

And the truth finally starts to come out at Halas Hall

If the Bears were so “close” as Lovie and Jerry kept on suggestiing, then they wouldn’t be trying to replace their starting LT (Williams-Pace), starting QB (Orton-Cutler), starting CB (Vasher-Lucas), and starting FS (fill in the friggin blank).

I'm going to predict Cutler winds up in Detroit or Washington

Detroit has the top shelf draft picks to offer. They can offer a combination of the #1, #20 and #33 pick. That gives Denver the option of drafting Matt Stafford to replace Cutler and semi-appease their fans after the nightmare Daniels-Cutler saga.

Washington can offer a combination of two top picks and Jason Campbell, who supposedly Josh Daniels really likes.

by BLou on Apr 1, 2009 3:13 PM CDT reply actions  

Washington has Campbell AND Brennan.

And Jim Zorn, former QB, is their coach. He drafted Brennan… I think they’ll stick with what they got.

Well..

All that matters is I don’t see a snowball’s chance in hell of the Bears being able to land Cutler. We don’t have the ammunition that some of these other teams do, plus Jerry Angelo is so damned conservative in his way of doing things.
