Knox was a better receiver than Bennett any way you slice it. Stats aside, he was always a more dangerous offensive player.

This is a big season in figuring out if Cutler is the future. Saying he must stay is equally as wrong as saying he must go. I've said this a few times, he's got to show he can succeed in Trestman's offense AND stay healthy. If he doesn't do both them it's a bit of a toss up as to what will happen. Maybe Franchising him is the best option in terms of risk/reward.

Knox would stop running his inside routes because there were defenders there. Don't make him out to be something else. He was a very fast, okay reciever that was asked to to more because there was nothing else at WR.

Ummm, when did I say he was an elite receiver? I said he was better than Bennett. Do you actually read what you're responding to before you post?

Unless Cutler can improve his TD/Int ratio, basically keep his mistakes to a minimum, and stay healthy...I don't see a point in keeping him. If Cutler still shows he is mistake prone with solid WR's, an overhauled line, a competent OC, an offensive minded HC, a tremendous upgrade at TE, and 2 versatile RB's...than what is the point of resigning him. Cutler may have potential and shown signs of talent, but he hasn't proven that he is a must sign player for us. The team has gone through a lot of changes and I think with those changes we have a team that can be successful with a game manager type QB. So in no way are the Bears in a situation that they must sign Cutler no matter what happens this coming season. Cutler needs to prove that he can keep the ball out of the defenses hands first.

To clarify, I think Bennett is the better WR, while Knox is faster. To your original point Knox might have been the more dangerous offensive weapon, but for me Bennett would be the one convering 3rd down and chipping someone on run plays.

Not saying I want a game manager type QB, just saying with the team we have I feel we can be just as successful with a game manager as we would with Cutler.

Behind Knox, wow, maybe you should have been the head coach, or, at the very least, the OC.

Mick, some on this board who consider Bennett elite, or that at the very least, a beast.

Unless Kurt Russel wants to be our QB, Jay is the best out there for us.

Not even close, we just know that Bennett was better than Knox!

Earls a much better reciever, I agree 100%. Knox was a one trick pony, I liked him but Bennett is a solid reciever. Catches everything and can knock a db out

Exactly. Hyatt is more concerned with sucking Knox-dick than anything else at this point, apparently.
Bennett does a lot of the dirty, unappreciated and underappreciated work and gets the job done, and you can only be that efficient if you have great hands and run solid routes, which he does.
