It's been a few weeks, but he's had a couple of quality starts. The upside of last week was what, nearly 300 yards and NO INTs!
I don't trust him a ton, but just checked our QB rankings (25 points/yard, 5 points/pass TD, -2 INT/Fumble), and he is top 5 total points, and top 4 in average points. I know they haven't had their bye, but his missed one game (so total points is pretty good considering) and he didn't finish a game (so AVG points is not bad either).

I don't think the bye could come sooner for Jay. They will probably do well against Wash this week. Then he will get a much needed week off to regroup and recoup. Hopefully during that week Martz will discover a few shorter routes to go with the madness that is his no blocking scheme. Its all or nothing and unless Cutler develops a quicker trigger, he's going to be pummeled. I'm hoping for a few good games so I can maybe move him for a more stable QB and another player.

Totally agree! They need to install more short routes to soften the defenses and then Cutler will be free to chuck the ball with reckless abandon again.

Any chance the offensive line improves over the next few weeks?
I think he's going to be okay, but he just needs a few more seconds to make some plays. WRs are getting open and dumping the ball to Forte has been a nice bonus.

Poor Jay. He's not a top 10 QB regardless but he's saddled with a poor offensive line who can't protect him or open up holes for his running game. He also has an OC who won't adjust the game plan to match their strengths or weaknesses.
He's my backup but if he was my starter I'd be trying to find a buyer. I don't see Martz turning things around and that line will certainly not get any better.

I think it does. The experiment that was Edwin Williams and Jamarcus Webb on the right side of the line failed. The original OL of LT-Williams, LG-Garza, C-Kreutz, RG-Louis, RT-OmiyaleCurrently starting LT-Omiyale, LG-Williams, C-Kreutz, RG-Williams, RT-WebbAnyone else see what they should do here?I think LT-Williams, C-Kreutz, RT-Omiyale. Then have all the others battle for playing time at LG and RG.

DO NOT start Cutler against teams with a strong pass rush. He can still be top-12 QB in games against run-of-the-mill teams. Start him against teams like Indy, Pitt, Jets, Giants- and he won't finish the game, let alone put up stats.

No it doesn't. He was knocked out of one game early and missed another.

I think you made his point for him. He's pretty good...unless he has a bad game or gets knocked out of a game or misses a game entirely. And we've seen all of those things in the first six weeks of the season. Other than that, no worries.

In mine he's tied for 14th per game with Chad Henne. If you take out his worst and his best games, he's right around Tom Brady, top 7ish.

Dallas has given up the least amount of passing yards this year, yet it was Cutler's best game. Every team he's played against this year is in the top 13 in sacks (I'm sure that's just a coincidence), but overall he's done okay. Not great but okay.
