READ, HERE IS THE BOTTOMLINE ABOUT JAY CUTLER.

The truth doesn't matter when the mind is already made up. It's a shame but it is what it is.

Last I checked, walking up a few stairs to your dinner table is not the job description of an NFL QB.

Sprained MCL's don't prevent you from walking up and down the stairs. Yet another non-story being made into a story by those who don't know the facts.

 

ive torn my mcl and i cont. to ride motocross the weekend that it happened ( but that motion was straight up and down) no way was i able to turn or push of of that knee in any other direction other than up and down. I hate cutler but if it was torn he should not of been back out there in the second half ( oh by the way I had the bears +3.5 and plus +10 in a tearser) so at the time i was as pissed as anyone, but until youve torn your mcl and tried to do anything incuilding to take a shit.... shut the fuck up   

NO one cares about Jay Cutler. 

yoo hoo steve--not making any kind of "story" simply stating that 99.9 of the nfl would have stayed in the game--wtf,,are you jays boyfriend or something--geez

A man would've stayed in and played - pain or no pain. 

A bitch would've came out - pain or no pain.

 

So.....which one did Cutler do? 

BINGO...bottomline(lol).....the guys fucking jersey is being burned around town buddy....the truth is that no one is fooled....he folded....for it to be said otherwise would be to say Chicago fans are not on top of the sport enough to no any better.....and that is a pretty savy group of fans over there

It's not the pain, Einstein.  It's the range of motion.  You can't move laterally or cut, without likelihood of your knee buckling.  It's human physiology. 

An intelligent individual would not have made this statement.   A back woods dumb f*ck would have made this statement.

 So.....what did you do?

cutler is one of the biggest pussies in the league imo

I would hate having to watch my team week after week and see that dumb ass look cutler always has on his face.  you guys know.... the "I could care less look"   even tho i'm makin' millies every year.    Bottom line..... start off by showing your fans and the people that pay your salary that you GIVE A FUCK

Not surprised you came back with a dumb statement like this. When backed in a corner with facts nothing you can do but admit you were wrong or spew random nonsense. Like everyone else you chose to spew random nonsense. You didn't simply state that 99.9 % of the NFL would have stayed in the game. You tried to make a story out of him walking up the stairs. 99.9% of the NFL wouldn't have come back anyway. You can start by asking LT and Ward.

He does show he gives a fuck. The beating that pathetic o-line gives him week after week only for him to get up and try again shows he gives a fuck. The 11 wins and the nfc championship game he led the Bears to shows he gives a fuck. Trying to stay in the game with a concussion and MCL Sprain shows he gives a fuck. Refusing to slide when he scrambles shows he gives a fuck. Laying blocks shows he gives a fuck. A dopey look on his face doesn't show whether he gives a fuck or not.

Cutler gave it a shot. There's only so much the body will let you do. Here's a post from a physical therapist I took from another site. It's not all about the pain

----

There's the key word, effectively. Yes you could go back out there, and he did, for at least the last drive of the first half and first drive of the second half. The main problem is lack of stability in the knee. The ligament itself isn't the huge issue, it's the muscles that surround and provide stability to the knee that are the culprit. As a defense mechanism, there are receptors in those muscles that send a signal to your brain to keep the muscles from activating in the presence of swelling in order to prevent further damage to the knee. Because it was a fresh injury, Cutler would have had a large amount of swelling in that area so those muscles would not be activating due to the signals being sent to the brain to shut it down. You can tape the knee, and brace the knee, but because the muscles themselves are shutting down, there's no way the knee will be stable enough to support the weight of the body to provide the kind of base you would need to plant and throw.

With even a weeks worth of treatment, that swelling can come down enough to keep the muscles from shutting down and maybe get the player back out there with a brace, but even then there's no guarantee because the ligament itself will not be healed and with even a small tweak, fresh swelling can begin to build. It's unlikely that many players would be able to play with a FRESH injury like this, and even less likely so when that player is a quarterback.

As a side note, I had this exact injury, grade II MCL sprain, in college. I completely shut down all physical activity for 6 full weeks. After that time, I was no longer having pain with walking or stair climbing and was cleared for light jogging. I got about 3 strides in when my knee gave out and I fell flat on my face. It's really not a surprise to me that Cutler did not finish the game. I was a lot more surprised after learning about the exact injury that he was able to even get out there and attempt to play in the first place.

nccapper always respect your posts but let make this clear again my son was at the game Cutler pleaded to stay in Lovie would not let him because you could see he was INEFFECTIVE not that he was any good b4 that.I just dont get why its so hard for people to understand the truth of what happend

understood - I can respect the other side of any opine--this one sure has been a fire storm tho, I think we can agree with that- have a good day Sir

you are baseing your oppinion on you being aware of how severe his injury is...there are 3 very different degrees to this injury.....level one ...wich is most likely what he has(if that at all) due to his ability to still walk on it (wich he was) up and down the sidelines.....you are still able to pivot(cut) on it...to some degree....and when I mean to some degree, I mean in a championship game he should have tried to stay in until it was more evident that he couldn't continue.....not once did he appear to be severely hurt or demonstrate it to the extent that it could be anything more then a level one injury......if at all.

Guys.....

If y'all wanna debate the actual physical impacts of the MCL tear, I can agree with you up to a point.  Let's say I lose that debate - no problem.

But then there's the non-debatable issue of Jay Cutler being Jay Cutler.  He's a bitch plain and simple.  This isn't a diss towards Chicago or Bears fans, it's a simple fact.  I like quite a few of Chicago's players and the history of the team.

But real recognize real - Cutler's a whiny, pouty, "woe is me" bitch.

That right there, is not debatable.....

you are baseing your oppinion on you being aware of how severe his injury is...there are 3 very different degrees to this injury.....level one ...wich is most likely what he has(if that at all) due to his ability to still walk on it (wich he was) up and down the sidelines.....you are still able to pivot(cut) on it...to some degree....

No, it's a grade II and Depeche is basing his opinion on the facts from the doctors.

and when I mean to some degree, I mean in a championship game he should have tried to stay in until it was more evident that he couldn't continue

That is exactly what he did

not once did he appear to be severely hurt or demonstrate it to the extent that it could be anything more then a level one injury......if at all.

When has he ever demonstrated he was injured. Not just last week but ever? He's a tough guy and he doesn't show it. He doesn't need to demonstrate he was severely hurt for the sake of acting. The MRI says it all.

He has a pouty look on his face almost all the time. That is not debatable. That's how he looks, big deal. Being whiny is debatable. I'm not completely familiar with his Denver days but in the 2 years he's been in Chicago can you name one thing he's whined about? (and believe me he has plenty of things he could have whined out)

In my opinion This is exactly right.He taking more flack than he should be on this particular issue but it is because of the way he has acted in the past being pouty and so on.

Cutler knew the only chance the Bears had was for him to leave the game. Give him some credit for thinking of the team first!

Haters gonna hate..

NFC championship game in the first year running Martz offense w/o a true #1 WR and the worst Oline in the NFL..they have all their picks and some cuts to free up FA $$$....

They will be better next season..eat a dick haters

Rivers famously played an AFC Championship Game on a blown ACL, and now Payton revealed his quarterback, Drew Brees, played through a low-grade MCL sprain.

My argument is wrong?????????????
