Look, here's the deal, you have a new head coach, who wants to bring a winning mentality. You have a quarterback who's got a reputation as a whiner, and that reputation seems to be deserved. Now, you can try to get a quarterback with a winning attitude that will give you the chance to implement your system faster and move the team in a direction you want, so you take the chance.
These players are contracts, that's all they are, and at the end of the day it's about wins and losses for the money the owner is paying. You win, you sell tickets, you get TV kick backs, you get monday night games and playoff appearances, all that sells jerseys, and all of the other crap teams stores sell.
You lose, well, it's the opposite.
It is what it is, Cutler has this idea that he's untradable and no one is. Look at Montana, or Unitas, where did they finish their careers? Hell, since that might be too old for you, look at Favre.
Now, if Cutler wants to get over this, go in and show that it was a bad decision, then do it, win over the fans, win over the coaches, win over the media, right now he's not helping his career at all. That "bad seed" image will stick to you like glue, look at Winslow JR, his dad is one of the most beloved athletes in Sad Diego sports history, yet he pulls that "it's a war, I'm a soldier" bull[censored] and the first time he goes to SD, a town with a huge military population, boos ring down, and to this day he still can't get past that.
Players work for the team, the owners put the coaches in charge of the players. This guy makes too much money, he's got a [censored] poor record (sub .500) and hasn't even gotten his team to the playoffs. To me, that's like being a sales guy, and getting upset when you're not promoted to manager, yet, you haven't gotten a huge deal, sure, you've gotten a lot of small deals, but the big deals are where the big money is.
Cutler needs to shut his mouth, go to practice, get with the system, right now he's turning the fans and media against him, and he'll regret it, because everywhere he goes, the moment things start to fall apart, it will be his fault. Tell him to ask Ryan Leaf what happens when you pull this crybaby, it's not my fault, bull[censored].
