Too bad for him, laughing even harder now at the "fans" that called him a sissy and blamed the loss on him.
Torn knee or not, I still don't like him.
Now they're saying it was just a MCL sprain.
While he was ripped for not playing while injured (particularly being compared to Philip Rivers that one year he tore his ACL), I think the bigger thing he was being ripped for was his apparent disinterested attitude on the sidelines. The guy was walking up and down the sidelines (as if he wasn't injured), apparently not vocally supporting his teammates. Perhaps he is "that" injured and deserves an apology. But for the most part Cutler has made his own bed and has this reputation for a reason.
sportstalkmatt thinks he should have shown that he was interested in the game!1!!!
So do a host of other "fans" that demand a player be exactly who they expect them to be at the moment they want them to behave a certain way.Quote:

I know, right? I mean, Fox had the "Cutler cam" running that showed him the entire game - and followed him into the lockerroom at halftime. With Cutler being on TV 100% of the broadcast, no way he could have every said anything to Collins, Hanie or another teammate.Quote:

From a stand point of what makes interesting TV, I would only show Cutler when he is sitting or not talking. He is already a villain, if he was supporting his teammates what good does it do you until the bears are winning. Until then the announcers can build around the story that cutler is giving up.
Just a thought that I had.
sprain = tear. Just depends what grade it was.Quote:

Plenty of QB's have played with this injury, in much less important games, especially when it's not their plant leg which is injured.Quote:
