The Cutler Controversy




There is no reason to believe Jay Cutler wasn't hurt.


No one knows their body like the guy in the skin. After going through off season conditioning, sweltering in training camp, and playing 99% of the plays this season and enduring 52 sacks, do you really think a guy would slink off to the sidelines in the biggest game of the year? Hardly...no competitor would do that.


But Jay Cutler is also his own worst enemy.


Instead of being an active participant on the sideline, he stood there like Batman in his cape with that smirk frozen on his face like his nemisis The Joker. No cheering--just smirking. No advising--more smirking. No coaching--just stoic smirking. Football fans are passionate, and they expect the same from their heroes.


Cool was good for George Gervin, not for Jay Cutler. If you are going to criticize the guy--leave the knee alone and go after the smirk.


It's a much bigger target.
