I'm not sure the point. You've listed 3 multiple SB winners, another single SB winner and a bunch of young guys making nothing near JC money and, Romo and Flacco are the embodiment of the argument against giving JC the big money.

While I generally agree with the article, what you highlighted in red is absolute B.S. Sure, taking only part of his performance into question may cause his numbers to look weaker when compared to every QB who has not been equally handicapped by the author. In other words, the author took that Cutler's numbers, skewed them, and compared them to everyone else, unskewed, in order to make his point. This part of the article is what doesn't sit right with me.

Ok. Then is it fair to say he is progressing in Trestmans offense? That was my whole point.

Keep good until you find elite? There's only 4 elite QBs in the league. How about you get good for way cheaper, who is also younger and not known to be injury prone, and move forward?

- In the mod forum planning your ban
Because you don't know what good is because you cant see the future? Is it wrong to have a backup plan, a failsafe in case your plan doesn't work?

That comparison is against all QB's in the same circumstances. I think it is actually a valuable tool, as defenses tend to play softer late in games when up multiple TD's. This gives you a look at how JC plays versus straight up defenses as compared to other QB's in the exact same set of parameters.

He is simply average and you're telling me there will be no average QBs available to the Bears?

I don't know. He has a better line and better weapons this year too so it's tough for me to say Cuter is "improving" when 1. the statistical improvement isn't that large and 2. it may not be really Cutler "improving" so much as he has better players around him. It's tough to gauge "progression" in the offense because this is the base line season for it. Trestman's offense is better than Tice, but that was kind of to be expected. Not sure if that is really a progression for Cutler so much as a regression to the above average that he was before Tice. (2013 Rate + of 103)

Derek Carr, Zach Mettenberg, Brett Hundley if you're only looking at the 15th pick for a QB
