Jay Cutler is a BEAR!!

[Fiz]

i actually thought nicks would have been a really good pick for the bears at 18.

he's shown he doesn't need speed to get open, is a big strong receiver who can block, has great hands, and would have been perfect playing in that poo storm that is soldier field.

oh well.

If I was the Bears I would be calling Tory Holt right now.

also what are the bears going to do about their defense now?

everyone is either old, injured, terrible, or named lance briggs.

I love the idiocy- happiness had nothing to do with Peppers' down season, absolutely nothing. This is fact, not conjuncture, speculation or wishful thinking.

You'll not convince them of that, ever...

this really brings me back to a rant ive made before in other places that teams like the bears have to dictate everything about their team to fit their environment which, unless they build a dome, will never change. investing this much into a quarterback without any real threat at WR when you play like 6 games a year on lake michigan in varying degrees of winter takes away a natural advantage.

I'm sure Cutler will soon be longing for the beach-like weather of Mile High Stadium

How so very little that you know about the Bears, Fizzy Fiz Fiz

snow by itself isn't that bad.

soul crushing wind on the other hand.....

i mean it's the same thing as the meadowlands.

if anyone has ever had the misfortune of watching a game in that poo hole you know the wind blows from like nine different directions and is much worse than playing in buffalo

orton worked his ass off to become a good qb and put up very respectable numbers last year with limited resources in terms of receivers, playcalling, and offensive line play.

it just seems incredibly reactionary to mortgage two first rounders for an improvement at a position that isn't a need without the tools around to really help him. then again i love first rounders with a passion and in hindsight still really don't like the otah trade but whatev

[Mattiekrome]

Wow, like many have said, it seems like a lot to give up.... but then again with an outstanding young Cutler + and young Forte, looks like they have a good foundation to work with for years to come.

2009 1st + 3rd, and a 2010 1st, + Orton... Now that's how you make a trade. Props to Denver for pulling that off.

Weren't some of us ecstatic about the prospect of trading Pep for 2 - 2nd rounders to NE a few weeks back? After seeing that, I'd feel violated

Cutler, Forte, Olsen, and Hester all young guys coming around at the same time could make for a grouping that goes down in Bears history

Glad you're happy, enjoy it. It's been a good week for you...

Saying your team's the poo in April...nice.
