I gotta agree with Scott. The inmates were beginning to run the asylum there in Denver. McDaniels is trying to the fix the team in the way his mentor, Belichick has taught him. That means getting rid of me-first players and headcases like Cutler and Marshall. Please watch the Outside the Lines feature on Marshall; you’ll never support him again.

By the way, Boston Dan, for all of Cutler’s stats, he’s 17-20 as a starter.

I’m sure Jay would be interested in your services as an agent or representative of some sort. Let’s revisit the topic if that meathead ever does anything in the league. So far, zip. I’d suggest that a guy with that sense of entitlement and lack of professional demeanor will only end up disappointing those who think its all about numbers and “franchise” quarterbacks.

McDaniels won’t have a single regret I’m certain. Cutler is Lovie’s problem now.

“And has anyone in the history of job promotions gotten off to a worse start than Belichick disciple Josh McDaniels?”

Uh, Jeff Jagodinski?

Wrong. McDaniels will forever regret the day he traded Cutler, unless they pull a Brady out of the draft..

You think he’s comparable Bledsoe? Wow. And you couldn’t be any more wrong.

Cutler in seasons two and three as a starter, completed 63.6% and 62.3% of passes thrown for an average of 6.9 yards per attempt.

It took Blesdoe five full seasons to get up to 6.9 yards per attempt.

It took Bledsoe four full seasons to produce a good TD – INT ratio where as Cutler did it in his first full one.

And has anyone in the history of job promotions gotten off to a worse start than Belichick disciple Josh McDaniels?

I’d argue against this conventional wisdom and say that McDaniels has gotten off to exactly the kind of start he needed. He cleared out a million-dollar-arm-ten-cent-head quarterback who only would have ended up costing him his job. Where have we seen that before? And much like Belichick did with Terry Glenn, McDaniels is also making very clear to an emotionally disturbed wide receiver that he can either fly right or take his litany of problems elsewhere. How do you think Brandon Marshall will choose to play that? More than likely, exactly like Glenn. I argue that history will show this to be the best thing he could have done for himself and the Denver Broncos.
