Would You Do Cutler To Houston For Schaub and Our #1?

[HPF Bob]

FWIW, I would not have done Cutler for Schaub and a pair of #1s. Schaub is a better QB than Orton. Even if the Texans had tried to get him (and I don't think we did), we would have surely been outbid.

Me neither. I hope Cutler tears it up and makes McDaniels look like a bigger moron than he already does.

You seem to be in the minority on that. Cutler seems to be the one taking all the heat from what I've read/heard. I'm sure there's blame on both sides, but I heard the Broncos owner had been trying to talk cutler for 10 days, and when he wouldn't return the calls Bolen made the call to trade him not McDaniels. Cutler said he never got those calls. I don't have a reason, but I tend to believe Bolen. If that is the case then Cutler just hurt himself. He had two stud young WR', a good line, and good offensive mind for a coach.

I think Cutler will be in hog heaven with the Bears. I mean, the last QB Bear fans remember fondly was Jim McMahon. Cutler has already passed for more TDs and more yards in one season than any Bear QB - ever.

So, there isn't a legend like the ghost of John Elway for Cutler to live up to in Chicago. He's going to seem like a huge upgrade to them even if he's merely average. The best QB that Bear fans have watched in recent memory was Erik Kramer. That's not a very high bar to live up to. Cutler will be responsible for a lot of Cub fans not committing suicide next October.

Chi town is celebrating big time. However, who does Cutler have to throw to? Tory Holt and as good of a WR in the second round that they can get would help big time. If they can get the offense moving, this could be a dangerous team. Certainly a real contender to win the division.

Maybe. Maybe Not.

I am a patriots fan but take a look at the track record for Belichik assistants moving on to head jobs. Many of these guys look like geniuses in NE and then can't hack it on their own.

So with that in mind I look at a 32 year old guy who has accomplished nothing coming in and his first move is to trade the Pro Bowl QB???

If the Broncos were a stock I would definitely be selling right now because their future looks very bleak.
