KC Joyner of ESPN.com spent 3 years watching tapes and performing a statistical analysis of Cutler's performance in Denver. Joyner didn't have a lot of good things to say about Cutler.
"I've said it many times and I'll say it again, Cutler will make Bears fans remember Rex Grossman,'' Joyner writes. "He'll make just as many crazy passes but won't suffer the Grossman fate because Chicago's fan base is so in love with him that they will forgive the nutty throws he makes in ways that they never forgave Grossman. . . .
"Whenever I say Cutler will remind Bears fans of Grossman, they get all up in arms. All Grossman did was take Chicago to their first Super Bowl in years and the Bears fans couldn't run him out of the starting spot quick enough. They'll win with Cutler, but, man, will they grit their teeth when he blows a game or two with his over-the-top risk taking."
According to Joyner, Cutler averages one interception or near-interception out of every 20 throws. Ugh!!
Cutler has a 17-20 all-time record as a starter.
