Can We Get A Gag Order on Cutler?

PrintThe Denver Broncos seem to be having potentially one of the worst off-seasons off all time. They let their long time head coach go, they got rid of their starting Pro Bowl QB, and their starting wide receiver not only doesn't want to be there, but can't get back on the field. They can't quite seem to get anything right, but there is one thing they have gotten correct: they have shut up. They just aren't talking about any of it. This seems to be an approach the Bears need to take with Jay Cutler. In a recent interview, he classified the Broncos fans as a 6 and the Bears fans as 9. Now he is back tracking.
And Cutler's now trying to clarify that, by saying that Broncos fans are a "6", he wasn't saying that Broncos fans are a "6".
In other words, he was confirming Brian Urlacher's alleged assessment of him.
"Denver's got great fans," Cutler said Saturday, according to the Associated Press. "I wasn't saying anything about their fans."
"I was saying stuff about our camp at Bourbonnais and just how expansive it is and how much money and effort and energy they put into it down there," Cutler said. "We get 11,000 fans on a Saturday. If it wasn't for the fans coming out like that, we wouldn't have to have such a big camp.
"Every NFL team has great fans. That's why the NFL and football is the No. 1 sport in this country, because the fans are great everywhere we go."
There are people out there that are looking for a good story and they are going to try to bait Cutler into talking bad about his old team. He either needs to not talk about them or just answer every question with "Denver is a great team with great fans!" and just leave it like that.

I understand what you're saying...
… and agree that maybe Cutler should just shut his trap until he plays at least one game, but the media did misconstrue the conversation you mentioned. He came out and clarified before the assumption was made that “he hated Denver”, etc. and I think it was smart of him. He is careful about what he says (at least sometimes) and knows that the media is going to stretch any and everything he says. But overall, I agree. Maybe he should just stop talking about Denver in the first place?

Right.
Which he knows, so I think it’s good he addressed the problem before it became an issue… lol. And nice job on the spelling! I’m so proud. :)

old news
and who gives a shit?
he said chicago is a better football town. considering they are writing his checks, and getting 11000 people to camp, who cares? denver? why do we care
Exactly. Who cares about this anymore?
If anything he was right in the first place about Chicago being a bigger football town than Denver because it is. Chicago is definitely a 9(or 10) on the scale of how important a town’s football team is to it’s residents. No city in the U.S. is more sports obsessed than Chicago thus espnchicago.com was born and even though we have so many great teams, Bears football holds the most importance over all of them.

Yeah but at the same time
Broncos come first in Denver, their season ticket list has a 12-13 year waiting period. So their fans are equally as die hard as ours.

Chicago is sports history incarnate.
So many legendary teams in one town makes it hard to have one reign absolutely supreme over another. Since your basing this off of a season ticket waiting list, even though it is a Bears town, you still have your die hard Sox,Cubs,Bulls, and Blackhawks fans who can take away from the numbers you might see had they not been the incredible franchises that they are. All our teams are part of the original teams in their sport. When we compare Denver sports teams to Chicago sports teams the only franchise that holds any merit is the Broncos. The Avalanche, Nuggets, and Rockies are young franchises with only the Avalanche winning a few championships. So if your a Denver fan, it seems that of course you would definitely be a die-hard Bronco fan because it’s the best and most historic team you have. Also, Bears games are always sold out and the waiting list is very extensive. Even though the waiting list might not be 12-13 years, when we have so many other sports to attract major attention why would it be? I sincerely think that the Bears and Packers have the most insane and die-hard fans in football.
Also, Cutler was basically “mobbed” the first day he came into training camp and the metal fences around him were basically knocked down by fans trying to get a piece of him. That might cause him to think that we’re a bit crazier than Denver fans from his personal perspective.

my thoughts exactly...
Who gives a crap? People are grasping at straws to make Cutler look bad. I personally take what he said as a compliment. Bronco fan turned on him when the organization smacked Cutler in the face, if I were him I would have been a lot more harsh.
Can't Cutler just be totally stoked....
to play for his favorite team from childhood and have a rabid fan base??? He’s in his dream scenario that he had for himself since pop warner
Indeed, small wonder he’s full of beans and gushing like a man who’s full of, er, said beans. It’s a lot more interesting than the unpalatable Loviespeak that will, inevitably, be drummed into him. When all he has to say is how “excited” he is to see this, that and the other… we’ll miss these halcyon days.

Jay cutler is a grown ass man and can speak whats on his mind as he sees fit. I have not seen nor heard of any wrong doing by cutler. We dont need a gag order on cutler we need a gag order on these fair weather panty waist fans that wont stick behind cutler when the going gets rough.

This is overblown
like much of everything the media turns into print. The media seems to target people who wear their emotions on their sleeves, and Cutler is certainly one of those players. I actually think it’s refreshing for a player to say what’s on their mind (within reason of course). Moral to this story is that not everyone is going to say what everyone wants to hear. Too bad he rustled Denver’s feathers a little bit. I’m tired of reading something that’s perceived as a negative comment from a public figure like Jay. Maybe Halas Hall has better facilities than the Denver training camp. Has anyone ever thought of checking before pointing fingers?
"A fanatic is one who can't change his mind and won't change the subject." -Sir Winston Churchill
whatever
this is non-news. all cutler was saying is that bears fans have been great so far, better than denver fans. what was he going to say? denver fans were better? come on. even if he thought that were the case, there is no way in hell he would say it. there is literally nothing here, and players, teams, or so-called sports journalists who want to make this into a story seem to be in the wrong business.
I was
going to fanpost this, but i didnt know where to put it, if at all, Carson Palmer is quoted as saying
Ced has been the ultimate teammate," says Palmer, the team’s star quarterback and unquestioned leader. "He’s fun to play with, studies hard, wants to win, helps young guys and is a leader – what’s not to love? It makes me mad when I think about what I heard out of Chicago, because now I know the guy and have spent a lot of time with him, and he’s a model teammate
since we’re on the QB knocking discussion, this convo, is over at this website.

“Model teammate” is just how I would have described his time on the Bears. Seriously. Why oh why oh why did we ever let him go?

you missed the point..
he’s ABSOLUTELY the stereotypical “model player” in cincy… and the only thing i can see him leading, is the gang of hood rats that team already has…

maybe getting cut, arrested, and ridiculed gave the kid some humility
Don’t forget when he came here he was the bonus baby who held out for extra cash, then immediately proclaimed he deserved to start over one of the 2 or 3 most respected veterans on the team. The club appeared to have immediately taken a dislike to him as a result.
I wouldn’t put it past someone to change that attitude and come to work with a new sense of purpose after getting knocked down as many pegs as Ced got knocked down. If he turns his career around in the AFC, good for him.

You must not have read about him mouthing off recently about how “the Bears know they made a mistake” in letting him go.
"The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt." - Bertrand Russell
the fact that he said this recently...
"I lost all my [expletive], and I wanted to get it back. I was out of the league, forgotten. My Nike deal was gone. I don’t give a [expletive] what anybody says – if you say you’re not in this business to make money, you’re a liar. I wanted my life back."
…i think proves exactly how much of a team player this guy has always been.
the article said it showed how he was humbled after getting cut by the Bears, i think it shows something a little different.

Exactly. I don't think it's really anything more
than him realizing how close he was to being out on his ass, and maybe having to work for the rest of his life depending on what he’s done with his signing bonus. Maturity =/= Fear

the guy could have mentioned how great bears fans are without even bringing denver into the conversation… but he didn’t. if i had a brand new “franchise QB” i’d want him concentrating 100% on MY team.
that being said, i agree that this is a complete non-issue. people have to sell newspapers and cutler is the new media darling.
I can tell that you haven't even listened to this interview.
He was asked to compare the two. I doubt he would have mentioned Denver fans at all if he hadn’t been asked to do so. He doesn’t want to talk about Denver because he is focused on OUR team.

franchise QB" i’d want him concentrating 100% on MY team.
yeah, i am sure he is thinking a lot about denver outside of when people ask him about
maybe you two didn't listen close enough. jay brought up denver first
“How has your experience here been so far with 20,000 people here this weekend?”
“Yeah, we had a few fans out. Um, it was fun. You know, in Denver, we didn’t have this many fans at all. I mean, we weren’t even able to accommodate that many fans. So, you know, that’s Chicago Bears fans for you though. You know, they’re proud of their Bears.”
“Is it really that different, I mean, you said you couldn’t accommodate that in Denver, but from what I’ve understood Denver’s always been a football town, your under the microscope there, your always compared to John Elway… how different is Chicago with Denver as a football town?”
“It’s a lot. You know, Denver’s on like a 6. Chicago’s like a 9. You know, it’s quite a bit different. Uh, you know, just the fans and uh, you know, how passionate they are. I think that’s probably the biggest difference.”
This whole thing is about the comparison of Denver to a 6 and Chicago to a 9
that has been the focal point of every article and conversation based on it. So what if he said that Denver wasn’t able to accommodate that many fans if it is the truth, there is no insult there. You just proved that he was asked “how different is Chicago with Denver as a football town?” and that he was asked first prior to do so. If he wouldn’t have rated them at all do you think we would be having a conversation about him saying Denver can’t accommodate as many fans as the Bears or that Bears fans are proud of their team? Hell no, what would be the point?
It’s his first camp as the Bears QB. What else would he compare having 20,000 people at a training camp with? Going to Six Flags? Of course, he’s going to talk about Denver in that situation because it was all he had ever known prior to it! And yeah, I did listen close enough didn’t I.

he could have just not mentioned Denver at all. but he did. then he made the comparison. then he backtracked.
"How has your experience here been so far with 20,000 people here this weekend?"
“It’s been great. It’s nice to get out there and work out with the team and really start putting this offense together. The fans have been great and they are showing up in huge numbers, which just goes to show how much they love their Bears up here.”
see? not that hard. he was only asked to compare the two cities after HE MENTIONED DENVER FIRST and how dove valley was not able to accommodate so many fans.
anyway, it’s a non-issue, but you guys are wrong. jay brought up denver first, not the radio guys. they just ran with it
So what if he did?
Why do you care? You repeatedly say it is a non-story, but you continue (seemingly while whining) commenting on how he could have done it differently. Don’t be the jilted ex… just don’t be. Pick up the rest of your belongings, and walk away gracefully.
Be nice. Flag comments that you think are offensive. Use the "reply" button. Drink plenty of water. Compliment others. Rec (wreck) comments and posts you like. Don't call people names.

I DON’T CARE. the comment was obviously about the training camps and his words were twisted to make it seem like he was dissing broncos fans.
i just love it how you guys are trying to put your own revisionist spin on this to make it sound as though Cutler didn’t initiate these comments. “oh, he was asked about it” etc. etc. etc. it sounds like someone is still dealing with a bit of emotional baggage. he needs to mature and move on with his life, just like many denver fans.
anyways, good luck. stay classy chicago.
You care.

your not always as sharp as you would like to be, I mean the guy says “you know” at least a thousand times per interview so he stretching for words. Give him a break if he mentioned Denver like that. You don’t have to take every thing Cutler says about Denver as an insult because he could say a lot more. Anyway, he was right to say Chicago is a 9 because it is, probably a 10. Sorry but thats just life. The Broncos don’t even compare to the greatness of Da Bears.

The only reason that stupid stories like this
are followed so closely is because we have sports media outlets like ESPN and NFL Network that run 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You gotta have something to talk about when you cover sports all day every day and all fans highly rely on these networks to deliver anything and everything. Regardless he was right, F**k Denver because Chicago will always be King and I hope this re-posting of a dead topic will never see the light of day again.

Not a Backpedal
I took his original comments exactly how he subsequently clarified them. He was asked about the fans at training camp. He said that there was far more of a fan presence at Bears camp, compared to Broncos camp. Which basically comes down to capacity. The Bears can accommodate 10,000+ at their camp, where as the Broncos can only host about half that. It’s pretty simple math…
Since when
do you have to play nice when talking about another team? We don’t play them in the regular season, so there’s no way this is “locker room fodder” and I really doubt we’ll be seeing the BRONCOS in the Super Bowl. So who cares?
He’s already basically called their women ugly and now he said their fans suck. Sounds good to me.

play close attention...
there’s very much a “WIN NOW!!!” mentality in chicago right now…
Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear.
we’ve had a “one-player-away-from-Super-Bowl” mentality in denver for like a decade now. i feel where your coming from.
having said that, you pass defense will need to greatly improve if they want to make a super bowl run. hell, the broncos defense ranked better against the pass than the bears last season. luckily the only guy you really have to worry about in your division is rodgers
that's more like minny's attitude...
being from chicago, or not, you can’t deny that IF certain players are healthy, if certain players revert back to form, if certain players step up… so on… i worded it like that on purpose to pont out the plethera of “if’s”, but every team ever to win the SB had to answer those same questions during the season. my only point is that we are built to win, and built to win now!!!
nfl network has stated that chicago might very well have the most talented LB corps in the league. when tommie harris is healthy, there’s no denying that he’s one of the best, if not “the best” tackle in the league. vasher and tillman are but 2 yrs removed from being considered one of the best tandems i the league. manning is a freakish athlete(too bad we can’t figure out what to do with him)
olen and dez are widely considered to some of the best TEs, kevin jones, a 1st rounder, who set rookie records in detroit is almost 2 yrs removed from his torn acl(exactly the time it takes to fully heal), is back to form, forte, well, that speaks for itself. all the pieces are there…
I really doubt either team will be seeing the super bowl anytime in the near future
that’s not something that a reasonable football fan would ever say about the bears…unless, of course, they were from green bay… but they don’t count anyway!
Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear.
you're still missing my point...
Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear.
i understand your point completely. chicago finally has their franchise QB and they want to win now. that is very possible… with all the following “ifs”
And your point being?
As windycity72 already pointed out, every team in any sport can go all the way if all their "if"s pan out. Except for last year’s Lions, of course.

Is that Cutler in an Elvis costume?
He definitely has Sizzle’s chin.

Cutler was stating the obvious.
In a world where bigger can translate into better, Chicago is a better sports town than Denver. I’m not attacking the Denver fans but look at the geography and population density and the Bears have an immediate advantage in sheer numbers of fans. Denver may have a large fan base that is incredibly loyal and passionate but by sheer numbers Chicago would have that much larger a number of the same passionate fans. Who’s team has the “better” fans? The team with the most fans. Duh.
If you can't laugh at yourself you must not be very funny.
Why should we care...
Denver should be called a 0 as a sports city. They basically have cried for 5 straight months about how Cutler was a crybaby. When wondering who the real crybaby is Denver fans, look in the mirror. They have started hating him, because he wanted to get out of a organization that was going nowhere fast and had a H.C. and O.C. he didn’t trust.
But all this crying is actually enlightening, it proves to me even more than I already knew that Cutler will be a complete beast in Chicago. Because, if he wasn’t amazing, why would Denver fans still be crying about how he left them.
i guess if i had orton to look forward to
i would be out trolling to.

Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear.
