I never would have thought that I put Jay Cutler in the same boat as Eddie Kennison…. quit, all I can say is that the Broncos will be around far longer than anything Jay does elsewhere. Lets get what we can for him, make the defense stronger through the draft. As I recall even Bubby Brister looked fantastic behind a good Broncos offence. SALUTE

You agree with the trying to trade cutler for cassel? wow. Why try to fix something that aint broke? The d needs help not the O. Not scoring enough had a lot to do with field position, which is the D and ST fault. With his super play calling ability he could make the 2nd ranked O number 1 overall, right? The last thing that needed to be changed was cutler, thats all im saying.

jcampb72,

Obviously you have a different opinion than the coach, thats fine. I only support his desire to make the trade if HE BELIEVES it will help this team win now. I may not agree with stuff he does in the future, but on this one I do. Plus he didnt trade him, only listened to offers.. too many people are hung up on that he tried to trade him, if he really wanted to than the deal would already be done.

Dee, how is trading for a worse qb making the team better. Wanting Cassel is a sign of lazyness from the coach. I don’t mind that he wants to win now but Cutler is a better QB hands down.

Mr. East . . . as a sidenote . . . .

What Mike Shanahan and Jay Cutler had was special! . . . what Jeremy Bates and Jay Cutler had was special! . . . . these three people put in the 15 hour days getting Jay to the probowl . . . .

They were the impetus of the offense . . . . it truly is a shame that there was not this type of chemistry on the defensive side of the ball . . . it cost Shanny his job . . . Jeremy recognized it and went to USC . . . and Jay was left to hoping the new regime had that kind of devotion and trust . . . yeah right . . .

McD can only hope in his tenure to ever build that type of relationship . . . . but I do not think it will be with Jay Cutler . . .

he wanted Cassel . . . understandably . . . he was his clay to mold with . . . now he will have to wash his hands and find a new mold . . .

Mr. East . . . I posted this blog a week ago . . . and my worst fear is becoming more real . . .

“There is the possibility that Jay Cutler decided in his heart that he no longer wanted to be part of the Bronco organization when Shannahan was fired . . . period.

He was extremely unhappy with Pat Bowlen and felt betrayed that this man could have fired his coach . . .

He did not know McD or Xanders at the time . . . and it didn’t matter . . . after they came on the scene . . . his decision clarified . . .

He has not answered Pat Bowlen’s phone calls for one reason . . . he does not like Pat Bowlen and no longer wants to work for the man.”

In two different blogs . . . I also intimated that Jay will end up in Tampa Bay . . . which is were Bus Cook wanted him in the first place . . . and probably would have gone down . . . if Belichick hadn’t decided to twist the stiletto in McD’s back and trade Cassel to K.C. . . . leaving the Broncos to take it on the face . . . and Jay still not wanting to play for Pat Bowlen . . . regardless who the coach was . . .

If you have time . . . read this post from Tampa Bay . . . .

doesn’t the gm on this team handle personnel decisions?
Shanny doesn’t work here any more, right?
Sadly.

Also you mentioned its a business, and you pay your Coach to listen to anything that he believes will make the team better. It works both ways thats why you can’t assign blame to only 1 person.

I dont blame McD for entertaining offers at all, Bus has spun that into something more, and Cutler being hurt is BS at this point. I dont blame my coach to listening to any offer that he feels will make this team better.

Bus is a snake no doubt about that, but its a business. Thats what you pay agents for, to get the best deals. McD fkd up and now they are taking advantage of the situation. If anyone’s to blame its McD.
