Actually...I'm saying he's nuts! He lied at the beginning. Then, the truth was even worse. Cutler was irritated with the lies, and now furious with the truth.If the coach prefers another team's backup, then why shouldn't the franchise QB ask for a trade????????
Funny, how all the San Diego supporters come out and start circling like a bunch of turkey vultures. It is such a big surprise when you start placing all the blame on Cutler's shoulders.
So when McDaniels grows up and understands the business of the NFL (ie, working with players) will he continue to be an overated coach.
None of those things are examples of siding with players in management/player disputes. I believe that's what the question was about.
Most likely when his defense improvesso when he does this he will be a solid qb in your eyes?
As a life long Bronco fan I say "Good riddance and I hope we can get solid players/picks in return". I think it is idiotic when any other player does this same thing each year and I think Jay is being an idiot too.I also think there is a chance that he still is in Denver come training camp. Denver could just let him stay home and fine him when mandatory meetings/practices start. The team has all the power in this situation, Cutler is under contract.
Yeah... he took over the perennial SEC powerhouse that is Vanderbilt and ran them straight into the ground.
Dawkins is old but still very effective. They also signed Goodman from the Miami Dolphins who was part of the rejuvination in Miami last year...he shut down Marshalla lot during the Denver/Miami game...likely a major reason he is now in a Denver uniform.I am in Cutler's corner though so I agree with a lot of your thoughts.
1st paragraph is spot on...your opinions in the next couple of lines I strongly disagree with...but that 1st paragraph and the money angle is going to be what prolongs this thing. Denver is backed themselves into a corner. Either pay Cutler about $100 million on a new contract or trade him.
IMO, they come out better vs. the Broncos (division rival) if they stay put.
LOL, I think you know that's not what happened here Tommy. But I understand that the more you drum up this opinion, the better Rivers looks. So I understand why you posted it.
This is a great post, especially the bolded parts.
We can all have our opinions of Cutler. My opinion is that he does not have the makeup to be a consistent winner in the NFL. I think when his career is over he will be viewed as a disappointment. That is all I am saying.doubletrouble said:Warhogs said:so when he does this he will be a solid qb in your eyes?

You're misunderstanding my post. I said they went after Rosenfels as if he were Unitas, not that they paid that way. I'm not following your second sentence. I said they won't seriously pursue him now that they've committed to Rosey. You disagree? Childress is going to be wrong about TJax and Rosenfels all in the same offseason? I didn't say I'd prefer it if they did not pursue Cutler, in fact I think I implied the opposite that it's a shame they probably won't.Donnybrook said:A 4th round pick does not equal to Johnny Unitas. You would prefer it if the Vikings were not to be interested in Cutler?BigJim® said:
Nice job, but this isn't fantasy football....Sinrman said:
I could see Cutler landing in DET, but certainly not under these circumstances....
I agree totally. This reeks of the new guy coming in and putting his stamp on his team and letting everyone know he's the new sheriff in town. In the course of trying to do this he probably just blew up the team.
I agree with the bold, but I'm not following the italicized. I highly doubt they were going to offer better than KC's 2nd round pick for Cassel while Cutler was still on the roster. The Patriots sure weren't going to take Cutler in exchange for Cassel, so McDaniels needed to get another team or two involved, all willing to pay the right price in trades, all willing to trade with each other, and all the contracts had to work out. There's a reason we don't see many player for player deals and even less 3 team deals.ConstruxBoy said:
sure, because every player who demands to be traded gets their wish.
I like this post
For New England to make the trade that they made (remember, they gave up Vrabel as well) as quickly as they made it, that tells me that the Patriots were never even contacted. If you think that you may have a 3 team trade, you would at least make sure that the Patriots are aware that they could be getting a better offer, right? The way that whole thing happened tells me that McDaniels was either way too slow on the trigger, or just royally screwed up somewhere.
OUSTANDING SUMMARY!!!! Cutler might be a little immature in this case...but it's still horrid management. Worse then horrid, because the thinking/decision making behind it is , at least in my (and many others') eyes, ridiculous (that Cassel would be a better QB for the Broncs, despite a 10 mil deal vs. a 1 mil deal).
What is wrong with those circumstances? Just curious....Nice job, but this isn't fantasy football....Sinrman said:I could see Cutler landing in DET, but certainly not under these circumstances....
He might get another HC gig but to me this kind of reeks of another Mangini. The BB disciples seem to get their new gigs and try to be mini-BB's. BB has been in this game a long time and has earned that level of respect and like it or not I don't think a lot of these NFL players like these 32 year old coach's coming into their new jobs acting as if they are BB without proving a thing. Yes, they are smart, cerebral guys that know a ton about the game but there's more to coaching than X's and O's and you need to have a foundation of trust and earned respect especially if you are so young and new to an organization. I think some of the BB disciples view the players as chips on a poker table and leave some of the human aspect out of the game. That was always my thoughts on Mangini and it looks like McDaniels may be cut from the same cloth. I could be off base but that's my thought....
It would say he doesn't want to play for McDaniels.
Yeah, Peter King is good for bring out McDaniels' side of it, but I'm not sure I believe him that they weren't trying to actively get Cassel. Especially when you consider that he's brought in other former Pats and that it's the M.O. of most coaches from that "line" of coaches, from Parcells to Mangini. I just don't understand why McDaniels wouldn't just admit to Cutler that he was trying to get Cassel when the news first leaked out. Why not be honest and apologetic there and mend the bridge? My only thought is that as some DEN homers like Sonny have said, Cutler is really not that well liked in the community and by the team and the Broncos are trying to get rid of him while making it look like his fault? That might explain Bowlen staying silent.
so when he does this he will be a solid qb in your eyes?
