    They didn't do Clausen any favors by sending him out there against that defense. Nothing like setting your guy up to succeed! He'll have a concussion by halftime.

    Might as well play with two RB's and no QB.

    I was thinking this about the AZ game. Just go wildcat or something crazy, go down in a blaze of glory.

    You can't keep him in when the OL doesn't want to block for him. The season is over for them do no reason for him to play. I can't see how he won't be on Chi next year.

    Like it's going to really matter. Cutler's career got derailed the day Mike Shanahan got fired from Denver. Those two would of gotten to the Superbowl in Denver by now.

    And Clausen is lucky to be playing football south of Canada. Bears are probably biggest underachievers this season aside from 49ers.

    The Bears were never a favorite. Some people in the media might of been. The D has been on the decline for the past few seasons.

    Ugh, I didn't even know Clausen was on an NFL team. Nothing says buyer's remorse of signing Cutler than starting Clausen. Who has to apologize to Cutler this week?

    San Fran not really that bad. Just a shitty QB and not used right. Defense not bad considering who they were missing. Not many teams can have their best LB missing the whole year, 2nd best LB 1/2 the year, best DL most of year and still perform

    Funny Pavy. But probably just as effective and true.

    Trestman is doing Cutler a favor, Trest knows he's gone after the season. Making sure Cutler doesn't get hurt, wishing the next coach luck dealing with him.

    So you're telling me to take 7 with CHI because they replaced a horrible QB with his back-up against a pretty sturdy defense. All because the team will play harder for him? Jimmy clauses has been in the league for 5 years and has a 50% cmp pct and only 1500 yds.Chicago year is over and the only thing their playing hard for is with each other. This might be the easiest pick all year, DET all day

    No way I could take Chicago here. Stafford is known to have some wheels off games himself. Think I'll just pass.

    I remember Mel Kiper Jr over hyping Clausen during the NFL draft.
    He is a NFL bust.

    Bears have made the call to trade Cutler and want to make sure he doesn't get hurt.

    Cutler had a good press conference today, didn't call out anyone, took ownership.

    He's taken way too much blame. He was under constant assault on Monday night. That stiff that started at LG couldn't start for a D2 college team. Embarrassing. Whose fault is it they didn't have a capable backup? The line has disintegrated to awful.

    that would be a first for ownership and if it's the GM why would he protect Cutler trading purposes unless he expected to be back next year

    Bears fan here. The decision was Trestman's and Phil Emery is not happy about it. This is a Hail Mary by Trestman to attempt show that his system works. He has thrown Cutler under the bus. Is Cutler a problem for the Bears? Yep. But he isn't THE problem. The entire Bears organization is rotten right now. Players not playing hard, inept coaches & finger pointing. If you bet on the Bears these last 2 games, you are just plain stupid.

    Not sure how you know that, and I don't buy it. Why didn't he even replace him at the end of the Saints game? Trestman didn't even seem to know until it actually happened. It came from above him, way above him. It was a management call.
