Being from Nashville and watching Cutler play for years, I'm a believer. I think it was a great move for the Bears. If they make a few easy moves thru FA to get WR's (Holt, Burress, Harrison) they could be the favorite to win the NFC North.
Being a Vikings fanatic ( and Prez of the nashville fan club) I wish we'd have tried for him and hope Chicago doesn't get him any help.

I don't really know, but it will be interesting to see what his thoughts were about the new coach in Denver. I work for one of those young wunderkids and find that 90% of the time I don't have issues - things like: You are either with me or against me that cause great concern for me when a young boss feels so strongly that they are the ONLY one who knows how to do things.

I think that the addition of Cutler makes the Bears the favorite to win the north because he is the missing piece that the bears have always needed. He completes a team that has decent running games and receivers and a top defense. I think that the real winners in the whole cutler trade are the Chargers because now they have little to no opposition in the afc west.
I think that Denver and Cutler both come out of this looking pretty silly and I won't be rooting for either one.
EDIT: I should mention that I definitely think that Denver got themselves significantly over-compensated in this deal. I think that somewhere between the Cassel deal and the Cutler deal is the right value for both quarterbacks.
Troo, I'm with you. I thought the Vikings would've been more likely to go for it before this was official. I'm still rooting for the Packers in all of this. I'm hoping this year Aaron Rodgers learns how to seal the fucking deal. Da Bears visit the Packers in Week 1, btw.
Doesn't Burress have to do some jail time before he plays again? I thought Mayor Bloomberg was trying to make him the poster boy for violating NYC gun laws.
I don't know if having Orton at the helm will completely ruin Denver. I'll have to wait and see. I do think Denver got the better end of the deal. The Broncos-Bears exhibition should be fun to watch.

this.
i'm proposing we make more use of our second string during the regular season so our star players are more healthy for the post season... as that's been our biggest problem the past few years
As a Bears fan, this makes me very ecstatic. I think we gave a little too much, but we'll see how it turns out. Also I'm rooting for Orton to do well in Denver. He was always very professional and was a likable guy. The neckbeard will live on!!!

denver wins more games then chicago this year. jay cutler's a little bitch. mcdaniels only led the most prolific offense in nfl history 2 years ago. cassel and brady's success has had alot more to do with strategy and knowing the system than it had to do with having a rocket arm. 2 first round picks too? sheesh. who is cutler going to throw the ball to?

I too couldn't be more excited, I love my Bears, and this is something we've needed for years. As far as giving up too much...the way I look at it is, we are not the best 1st round drafting team in the first place, over the past seven years or so we've taken players like David Terrell, Marc Columbo, Rex Grossman, Cedric Benson, and Michael Haynes, and none of those were worth a shit. Granted we took Tommie Harris in 04, and I can't complain about that. I still think we need time to see how Williams and Olsen pan out, but they were wise decisions, and less of the "skill player"(QB<RB<WR<Def passrusher) than the others. I'm really just excited for the season to start, its my favorite time of year. ;D

Romeo Crennel, Eric Mangini, and Charlie Weiss......

ding ding ding ding! Hmmm, lets see, Cutler with Shanahan, no problem. McDaniels comes in, problem. Maybe the trouble in Denver has a lot to do with its conceded new head coach than the QB who has been a model player/teammate for the past three years. I love how people always have these former Patriots assistants back, but when it boils down to it, without Belichick, they are not the same coaches...

this is a good point. however, the first 2 were defensice coaches, and charlie bit off more than he could chew in ND. Offensive strategy and recruiting/running a bcs football program are very different.
mcdaniel's could be a bust too, but I like his chances better than the others.

Conceded? This is the qb that said he had a better arm than john elway. then demanded a trade, because the coach entertained the idea trading him for his protege. mcdaniels was honest and had the guts to admit to cutler he considered trading. cutler too it like the whiny brat he is and demanded a trade. worst mistake he ever made.
