He was a much better QB than most new head coaches get, and looked like a franchise QB at age 26 when McDaniels got him. The Bears screwed him over by constantly changing his offenses, which completely destroyed his development.

They kept changing coordinators because he kept sucking and they though a new coordinator would solve the problem.

The Bears were loaded with talent at WR at one point and Cutler still wasn't that good.

2013, Josh Mccown, a journeyman back up, far outplayed Cutler once Cutler went down injured.

But sure, it was the OC

Bears had Matt Forte, Alshon Jeffery, Martellus Bennet and Brandon Marshall on that team. THREE of those players made the Pro Bowl that year. But Cutler played perfectly mediocre that season.


Bears never should have signed him long term after that
