BR: Bears Trying To Trade Cutler to get Mariota

[Newblood]

Hodor if you must, but the rest of us can read between the lines.

Ok, so it went from a matter-of-fact to reading between the lines and assumptions. Got it.

Digging yourself in deeper.

Just google it, this is getting embarrassing.

I totally agree his arm wasn't weak, but "very accurate"....well, I dunno if we can say that if he plays in a prostyle offense with lots of moving parts where he needs to anticipate and lead receivers open, etc.


I wouldn't day he was very accurate on some of the down the field routes I saw him deliver tbh, Accurate enough, sure. I saw receivers held up...receivers having to make normal adjustments to balls....etc. etc. I actually think Jameis, WHEN IN RHYTHM AND THE POCKET IS CLEAN IS VERY ACCURATE DELIVERING the ball....more accurate on the similarly demanding routes than Marcus hands down.

all one had to do was watch the combine throws.

 

[Newblood]

Pretty sure it was.

To remain a Chicago Bear, it appears receiver Brandon Marshall needs to give up his budding broadcast career as an analyst on Showtime's "Inside the NFL," as new head coach John Fox and general manager Ryan Pace expressed Wednesday that football is where the players' focus should be.

There are other articles stating the same, learn to use google, so I will not post them all.

P.S. It is best to check your facts before posting.

An NFL coach and GM wants players primary focus to be on football? How edgy!

Now please quote me any part in that article where they said they planned on cutting Marshall if a trade was not made? You know, since that was the point of my original statement.

P.S. It's best if you practice reading comprehension of you are going call into question someones statements.

Embarrassing is quoting an article to try to make a point that doesn't even address the point.

Never mind, you are too stupid to comprehend an implied statement. You will never read were a Coach or GM makes such a definitive statement.

That is just never going to happen in the real world.

This what reading comprehension means, the ability to process what is stated and derive the true meaning.

Their meaning was pretty clear to the rest of the world.

I have no problem with this team / front office moving on from football players that don't get to / win playoff games. Hence all the rumors and action surrounding BMarsh and Cutler this offseason. On top of it, the Bears roster was/is filled with older players, so the roster needs to be rebuilt and infused with youth across the board.

LMFAO. So ONCE AGAIN, it went from a matter-of-fact to an assumption and interpretation. Jesus you are stupid. That was my original statement the whole time (once again reading comprehension). You went from, it's all over the internet that Marshall was going to get cut if he wasn't moved to, well it was assumed. I asked for one quote that backs up the statement that Marshall was going to be cut if he wasn't moved and you haven't produced anything but, well, it was implied. For it being all over the internet like you state, it should have been easy.

Because you know, it's beyond reason to think that the Bears could have sat Marshall down and laid down some ground rules.

I have believe I saw quotes that say the move was best for both sides because Marshall can keep his TV deal and the Bears could move in another direction because he was rubbing people wrong.
If you want to extrapolate that into an assumption that Marshall was getting cut if he wasn't moved, great.
But don't quote some article with quotes stating that players need to be focused on football and expect me to take from it that Marshall was going to be cut if he wasn't moved as fact.

Can you all shut the fuck up about Brandon Marshall? The fuck does he have to do with Cutler/Mariota? Aussie's mock drafts are more interesting than this crap.

Do you think that the Bears had any intention of keeping Marshall?

the more and more I think about it, I could see a big trade happing on draft day.
if the Bears really want to enter a new era of Chicago Bears football, there is no way Cutler can be our starting QB.
Emery didn't get fired just because of his coaching hire, it was also because of that Cutler contract.
Cutler is probably the most hated sports personality in Chicago, and im sure the owners are well aware of it.
trotting him out, as are starting QB is counter productive to all the sweeping changes they've made.

and what better way, at least from a PR standpoint, for a new GM to kick off a new era, by drafting a new face of the franchise.

I believe they wanted to move on from him. I am not sold that they would have just cut him if they couldn't have found a trade partner. Especially after his guaranteed money kicked in. It worked out that they found someone to take him and got something out of it.

Edit: And to be clear, my statements were not calling into question peoples speculations, assumptions or interpretations that Marshall could or would be cut. I was calling into question people claiming, as if fact, that it was stated that Marshall would be cut if not moved.

I think they would of kept BMarsh, if he would of agreed to their terms and rules.
but he more than likely said he wasn't going to stop doing his show and way to much media attention was on him for them to just sweep it under the rug.

I don't know what he contract says, but I don't think Marshall was required to agree to their terms. I'm not sure he had a choice. I'm pretty sure there is an agreement that players have to be allowed to do local media shows on certain days of the week, but do not believe that extends to traveling to do shows.

Either way, besides the point.

If the Bears want to move up, it better be for Williams.

Also if the Titans want Cutler they can offer their 33rd overall pick and keep their #2. #33 + 7th rndr for Cutty + 5th rndr makes far more sense.

That would be fine too.

hmmmm, you asked: "do you think" it wasn't "can anyone provide a quote". "think" would be someone's opinion on the bears intentions. I'm sorry, but you're scratching now.

That would be fine too.

If they trade to get Mariota and give up more than Cutler and pick #7 than Pace should be fired..A team in dire need of a complete overhaul cannot be giving up extra picks to move up and get a guy not touted as highly as Luck or Manning coming out of college.
