Title: Treat Rodgers Like He Treats Cancer Patients: NFC Championship Thread
Post by: Saul Goodman on January 16, 2011, 03:34:39 PM
Walk right past him to the Super Bowl. (http://www.wbay.com/Global/category.asp?C=169373&clipId=5470736&topVideoCatNo=14980&autoStart=true)

Via the weasely Florio, who is absolutely not overreacting in any way to this huge story. (http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/01/16/aaron-rodgers-has-a-lot-to-learn-about-where-his-money-comes-from/)

Ripping Cutler won't really work after that performance, so what will be the media storylines for this week?  My guess: RIGHT THAT WRONG (http://www.chicagobreakingsports.com/2011/01/packers-rb-starks-no-hard-feelings-for-bears.html)

How, lucky the Packers were not having to face the Saints?   The bears were too lucky to get by last week and had to face a worn 7-9 division winner.

The truly pertinent information:

Green Bay favored -3. Over-under is 44.

I'm hoping that this time, Vegas doesn't know shit.

BEAT GREEN BAY!

The Bears let Seattke back in the game in the end. This lack of finishing strong means the Packers are clearly superior.

In the latest edition of media "OH MY GOD! THE PACKERS ARE FREAKING AWESOME" commentary... Notice how the AP compares the Packers with the Bears in the first game story from this afternoon...

"Although it got closer at the end, this was the result many projected the first division winner with a losing record would sustain, making it difficult to measure how good the Bears are. The NFL will find out next week against the Packers, who have beaten third-seeded Philadelphia and top-seeded Atlanta on the road this month. But to compare these Bears with the "Super Bowl Shuffle" bunch that won Chicago's only Super Bowl 25 years ago is a stretch."

Guh.

My guess is the fact that the Bears went to Green Bay in week seventeen with nothing to play for and ran a vanilla offense, yet played Teh Juggernaut even for 50 minutes is not going to get mentioned once as the storyline of the week will be the SUPER BOWL BOUND PACKERS.

What is frustrating is that I don't really see why "they" are so in love with the Packers. OK, they have a quarterback that acts like he likes reporters. They have a couple name receivers. And they play a "different" defense. They had a worse record than the Bears, the two teams split the regular season matchups... I'm just not seeing it, whatever the heck it is.

They were supposed to be good before the year. Therefore, they must be better, because if they aren't, the media would be wrong.

I think it's that, plus the fact the Packers both scored more and allowed fewer points than the Bears this year.

And have both won fewer, and lost more games. I'm not saying points scored/points allowed aren't important, but Green Bay has been terrible in close games for most of this year and, given their lack of a run game, have struggled to score points in games that weren't blowouts, as stupid as that sounds. They blew out the Vikings, the Cowboys in Wade's last game, the Bills in week 2, the 49ers, and the Giants. None of those teams made the playoffs. They averaged 17 PPG in their other 11 games. Their offense is as capable of disappearing entirely as it is of blowing some one out. I also think those stats don't exist in a vacuum, and the media still bases part of their narrative on the play of the pre-bye Bears. Including the playoffs, the Bears have averaged almost 25 PPG, Green Bay in that same time period? 26 PPG. Consider the head-to-head results as well in which they split the series and the Packers merely outscored the Bears 27-23, and I just don't see how Green Bay is the clear favorite.

Fear the spreadsheet.

They have no balance outside of one nice game by Starks against a shitty Eagles defense, so their offense is feast or famine based on whether or not Rodgers can have the big play. They had 5 games during the regular season where they score 30 or more points, but also had 3 where they scored 10 or fewer and three more where they failed to get more than 17.

DPD, but in addition to that, like I said, all of those stats should be a moot fucking point because Green Bay shouldn't be a clear favorite based on the head-to-head results alone. What about a 1-1 split, a loss at Soldier already, and a 4 pt edge in overall points scored makes Green Bay a favorite in Chicago?

First of all, that first sentence is a partial-birth abortion.  How does a team "sustain" a result?  I believe he means "attain" but his unimaginative strawman two sentences later indicate that this writer's simply a tardface so maybe "sustain" has meaning in his dangerous mind.

I hope that's the case and that the shit he throws involves an assload of well-designed running plays that result in 15, 20 and 30+ gains for both backs. That would be 8===============D~~ ~~~ tastic.

The Bears didn't use much of the shotgun in that final game. I expect to see more of it this week to give Cutler a little extra time. As far as the running game goes, I think it was big to see Taylor finally get some decent runs this last week. If he and Forte can add up to 150 or so running yards, I think the Bears will likely win the game.

BEAT GREEN BAY!

Long odds? Are you fucking me Press-Gazette?

They have been the media's Favorite Team (TM) ALL SEASON.

Philly was only -1.5 against them (Vegas normally gives home teams 3 points)

Atlanta was -1 against them

THEY ARE THREE POINT FAVORITES, on the road, against the Bears

At 7:5, they are currently THE FAVORITE to get to the Super Bowl.

For the love of fucking goodness, those are some LONGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG odds.

Whatever.

Speaking as a Bears fan, I prefer it this way.  You might recall they were consistently dissed in similar fashion in 2006.  It beats having everyone walking around with your dong hanging out of their mouths before you've played a game.

By the way, look at the White Sox' lineup. Did Kirk McCaskill retire after being kayoed from this one?

They need to be sure to stay on their man in 11-on-11 coverage, and the number of runs must exactly equal the number of passes, even if they have to punt on 3rd down to force an even number of plays.

So other than scoring more points than the Packers, what do the Bears need to do to win? I am not opposed to Hester racking up a shit ton of return yardage on Sunday.

They need to be sure to stay on their man in 11-on-11 coverage, and the number of runs must exactly equal the number of passes, even if they have to punt on 3rd down to force an even number of plays.

If they are close enough to try field goals on 3rd downs in order to keep said balance, will we allow that?

Actually, we probably need to make sure that the number of punts and field goal attempts are the same.  They can use the punt to set up the field goal.  Or something.

They should only play offense in one direction.

Play textbook Cover 2. I don't care what Starks did against the Eagles, their run game still sucks and they must be reminded of that fact. Make them completely one dimensional, take away the big play, and pressure Rodgers. Same shit they did at Lambeau. I really feel like the Bears defense has an advantage in the fact that you know, I know, and everyone in the world knows what they're going to line up and do 95% of the time and yet you still have to fucking beat them at it, so there's not really any secret plan Green Bay can come up with to suddenly flip the script, whereas Martz has a better chance of figuring out the changing schemes of that bastard Capers.

On the offense, they need to run the ball, and I think they can do that successfully. Green Bay's allowed 114 yards rushing per game this year, and Forte gashed them in the last game before Martz mysteriously went away from him, which I think was a part of giving Green Bay an entirely different look than they would possibly see in the playoffs. Outside of that, just play offense the way they have in the second half and get Webb some help against Matthews.

And they aren't giving political answers.  They're angrily defending him, which is enough for me. 


Fuck the meatheads. 

I think it sent a message when Urlacher angrily refused to take any questions after that. Kreutz as well. If anyone would throw a guy under the bus, it'd be one of those two, and they just spat it back at the reporters. That says all I need to know.

Maybe I missed it while I was stuffing my face at halftime, but it didn't seem like there was much talk about cutler being hurt before he came out. I saw him heading to the locker room with a few seconds left in the half, but hadn't the packers started to take a knee already at that point? Nobody saw him get hurt, nobody talked about him getting hurt, the stories about him fighting with the trainers didn't come out until well after the game, and lovie didn't mention that either that I heard. So he's got a legit injury and probably shouldn't have been out there, but it was a perfect storm of missing information and bad reporting that caused everyone to jump to the worst conclusion.

I believe they were puzzled about why Cutler was heading to the locker room. Lovie and Co. are usually extremely tight-lipped about injuries and it played right into the media's hands today.

From a PR standpoint, they should have just kept him in the locker room.  Probably would have gotten shit for that, too.

When he got hit in the endzone and lingered there for a while I started to freak out a little. He was very slow coming back to the huddle. I actually asked aloud to the people around me what was wrong, did anyone see him get hit? It's Jay so I just expected him to rub some dirt on it and get back out there. The next couple of throws were way off. I thought he might be concussed. I don't know what they showed on TV but standing there about 150 yards away on the other end of the stadium I believed something was quite wrong.

I think he knew he was fucked right then and there yet he continued to battle, took an injection at halftime and tried to go one more series. Phillip Rivers got hurt against the Colts and then Billy Volek came in and won that game. Then a week later Rivers played against the Patriots and got pwned. If only Cutler had half of the guts that Rivers had.

I don't know why Lovie had to be so vague after the game. And aren't there sideline reporters that are supposed to be letting us know about the injury and treatment and fighting to stay in the game? It was kind of an afterthought on the broadcast.....oh well, Cutler's hurt or something. Nobody knows when it happened or how,not even Cutler himself.....I needed answers dammit!

What people keep missing is that he was held out by the coaches. Whether he tore his MCL or not, he had no say in coming back in. There is no argument after that.

I just read David Haugh getting his Chuck hat on criticizing Lovie for the end around on 3rd and 3.

Also, I'm no injury expert by any means (I should check Will Carrol's twitter for updates on this and Sterger), but one good thing about my fascination with HS football has allowed me to get some front row seats (usually the sidelines) for things. I distinctly remember hearing a player's ACL pop when it tore on a run. He was in initial pain, obviously, but he after getting off the field he was able to walk around and didn't need to get up to the hospital right away. The main thing with the ACL is that one loses the ability properly twist the knee but can walk with little pain. I'm not sure if/how the MCL differs. Chances are that he didn't need to sit on a trainer's table with an emo face on. Being on the sideline had little effect

So, in short, fuck all y'all for even questioning Jay. That motherfucker is hasn't ripped his O-Line all year (Peyton). He would have been on the field if he had been allowed to. It wasn't his decision. Of course, Jay's a pussy because the man from Santa Clause ain't jolly enough and he frowns. IF HE TEARS HIS MCL I EXPECT SMILES DAMMIT. I look forward to tomorrow on the Score and the numerous calls to get rid of that pussy and let the "rookie" play next year. By look forward, I mean I'll be very fucking angry all fucking day. /reinserts Jay's dick in mouth

Why would they make a big deal of a player fighting to stay in the game? It's not like they ever do that (thinks back to Jason Witten in Week 2). Oh nevermind. They didn't care because it was Jay Cutler and if he was bitching about something it was probably because the sadsack was pissed because he was going to have to sign autographs on tv  for cancer patients after the game.

You know what, all those motherfuckers can fucking die a shitty death. They didn't know what it felt like. He had a chance to snap back and he didn't comment on it. If I were him (and I'm one who can fly off the handle at times), I would have just said "Fuck them" and called them all Fags. Proof that Jay is a better man than I.

Quote from: Trent Dilfer on ESPN, another man who can go fuck himselfThe fact that he didn't show the fight to re-enter the game. The fact that he didn't show the demonstrative behavior that most players show in this situation would show if they were told they couldn't go in the game. It's not about being healthy in this situation. It's about being available to your teammates.

Ok Trent. If Jay had had a complete 5 year old's hissy fit on the sidelines, that would have made it better.

I saw my little brother tear his ACL in Champaign in the state finals. He was doing warm up exercises afterward. It didn't look bad when he got hurt. He just planted and turned funny. We didn't know what the problem was from the stands. We were wondering why the hell he didn't go back in. He was moving fine. He was standing. He wasn't rolling around on the ground yelling like a regular Roenick. He wasn't on crutches.

After the game we found out what happened and he had the surgery and nine long months of rehab.

Knee injuries, how do they work?

I distinctly remember hearing a player's ACL pop when it tore on a run. He was in initial pain, obviously, but he after getting off the field he was able to walk around and didn't need to get up to the hospital right away. The main thing with the ACL is that one loses the ability properly twist the knee but can walk with little pain. I'm not sure if/how the MCL differs. Chances are that he didn't need to sit on a trainer's table with an emo face on. Being on the sideline had little effect

I saw my little brother tear his ACL in Champaign in the state finals. He was doing warm up exercises afterward. It didn't look bad when he got hurt. He just planted and turned funny. We didn't know what the problem was from the stands. We were wondering why the hell he didn't go back in. He was moving fine. He was standing. He wasn't rolling around on the ground yelling like a regular Roenick. He wasn't on crutches.

After the game we found out what happened and he had the surgery and nine long months of rehab.

Knee injuries, how do they work?

That is pretty much how it goes. I've had two ACL reconstructions, torn MCL and medial meniscus. Lots of initial pain, but you can walk afterwards; albeit gingerly. Keep trying to play on it and you risk massive, permanent damage to the joint, ligaments and tendons.  Meatheads don't know dick.

Sadly, no.  I was a little drunk and a lotta wrong. I also wanted to know what it felt like to be a reactionary meathead.  It felt bad.

In short: I like Jay and I'm happy he's the Bears QB.

What people keep missing is that he was held out by the coaches. Whether he tore his MCL or not, he had no say in coming back in. There is no argument after that.

I just read David Haugh getting his Chuck hat on criticizing Lovie for the end around on 3rd and 3.

NO ONE IN THIS CITY KNOWS ANYTHING ABOUT SPORTS.

For a while in the fourth quarter I was having the time of my life - even though I knew they were fucked and Caleb was going to cough it up eventually. But God damn they fought hard (||). I wanted my enduring memory of this game to be the unbelieveable noise and energy in the stadium as the Bears fought and clawed their way back in. I've never experienced anything close to that. When I left, I felt like I had been a part of sports history (||) and that I would just enjoy the memories from a season that gave me more than I ever dreamed it could.

And then I got home and started reading. And hearing. And the anger took over. Right now, this hurts worse than that Super Bowl Sunday did. At least I was drunk as piss that day.

All of that. It's the what ifs that are bothering me now.

What if Cutler had hit Hester on that corner route in the first series?
What if Urlacher had taken that pick to the house? (That tackle by Rodgers was the play of the game)
What if Hanie had gotten #2 reps for the last few months after Collins shit himself in Carolina?
What if Hanie hadn't thrown that pick right into the ample gut of Raji?

Fuck fuck fuck.

On the bright side, I had to watch the game on delay on DVR so I was not exposed to all the Twitter horseplop during the game.

That wasn't on Jay.  Hester stopped running the route.  Had he kept running, he I'm pretty sure he would have run under that.

I'm most upset at the Todd Colins turdfest.  I just don't understand how Hanie can go into training camp as the #2 QB and lose that spot due to injury--Collins' performance against the Panthers should have been the last time he ever took an NFL snap.  Instead, his next snap was in the NFC Championship Game.  This fact blinds me with rage.

Oddly enough, this was the one time where Lovie did what the media demanded and got an "experienced NFL quarterback" to back up Cutler.  The lesson is obvious.

Maybe I'm just trying to justify my meatball episode yesterday, but this this this! FOX never even attempted to find footage of the injury. No sideline reporter had any info from anyone on the Bears sideline. They said he was questionable, not out, leaving the possibility of a return open. This is the star player of the damn team, and the severity of the injury was never conveyed to everyone sitting on their couches. None of this would have happened if it was reported he was pulled from the game for good. If it was Aaron Rodgers with a hangnail, they would have been all over it. Jay attempted to play with a fucked up knee, and it was glossed over.

I didn't like being a meatball..... I feel dirty.

This was a colossal failure on the part of the organization and just more fucking evidence that if this were any other business in the country, it would have gone bankrupt a long time ago.  

Maybe I'm just trying to justify my meatball episode yesterday, but this this this! FOX never even attempted to find footage of the injury. No sideline reporter had any info from anyone on the Bears sideline. They said he was questionable, not out, leaving the possibility of a return open. This is the star player of the damn team, and the severity of the injury was never conveyed to everyone sitting on their couches. None of this would have happened if it was reported he was pulled from the game for good. If it was Aaron Rodgers with a hangnail, they would have been all over it. Jay attempted to play with a fucked up knee, and it was glossed over.

I didn't like being a meatball..... I feel dirty.

This is the same organization that had Martz fly down to Nashville to interview with Cutler (essentially the boss flying down to meet with the subordinate), so it's not exactly surprising that they would have handled this poorly.

Did anyone think that maybe the reason Jay was able to walk and stand around so well in his cape had something to do with the pain-numbing injection he took at halftime so that he could get out there and try to play again? Fuck me. It's a fucking avalanche of stupid right now.

Go on fucking strike already and don't come back. I don't need this shit.

Sadly, no.  I was a little drunk and a lotta wrong. I also wanted to know what it felt like to be a reactionary meathead.  It felt bad.

In short: I like Jay and I'm happy he's the Bears QB.

Nice post. You made him upset (http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/Jay-Cutler-Chicago-Bears-cry-injury-fallout-012411).

I love Ocho. He gets lumped in with the troublemakers but despite his flamboyance he's generally pretty level-headed about things. He seems like a genuine guy and has done way more good than bad. Good of him to come to Cutler's defense when he didn't have to.

The way I understand this stuff, it has more to do with Cutler's reputation as a dick more than anything.

This is truly the final word on the Cutler saga:

Jay Cutler Is Not A Quitter, He's A Victim Of The NFL's Moron Soap Opera (http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/2011/1/24/1952992/jay-cutler-injury-nfl-soap-opera)


QuoteHe certainly looks the part of a classic dick, and this may be why you assumed he wasn't really injured when he bowed out of the NFC Championship Game. You would not be alone: Maurice Jones-Drew, Derrick Brooks, and Darnell Docket were among the players who questioned Cutler's toughness on Twitter. Mark Schlereth chimed in, as well. Did you know he had 20 knee surgeries? Schlereth did many amazing things in his career as a Super Bowl-winning offensive lineman, but what he would most like you to know about him? That his knee, like a shark's belly, has a license plate and a boot floating around in it at all times. Real men dare oceanographers to knife their joints open and examine the bounty of a properly used joint.


QuoteSeattle defensive end Raheem Brock even called Cutler "a sissy" on Twitter. Brock would know about staying in the game even when impaired, since he is a gamer. Real men stay behind the wheel no matter how injured they are. Jay Cutler might take himself out of the game after a few beers, sure; but a gamer like Brock stays in there, wobbling through things no matter how many flashing red and blue lights he sees behind him.

Not to get all Fro Dog, but I have a feeling, that this isn't really the final word.

That may well be, but Slak's link is still outstanding...

QuoteBrock could be right, but the track record for Cutler does not indicate that. I watched Cutler play one of the tougher games by a quarterback at the college level I'd ever seen, a 49-42 loss by his Commodores to Florida in the Swamp in 2005. The game was a distillation of Cutler's entire career at Vanderbilt: abuse, zero blocking by his offensive line, throws off his back foot that somehow rocketed into receivers' hands over and over again, and ultimately a near-miss at glory by an undermanned team.

Cutler had the scowl and general bitchfacedness going back then, but you can't see that under the helmet. All you could see was the durability of a player who watched a good number of his completions from underneath a linebacker or defensive lineman, and the effect he had had on his teams. There was no "sparkle," no "charm," no dreaded "playing like a kid out there." He threw the ball hard. it went the right places. Vanderbilt competed in more games than they deserved to as a result of Cutler doing his job well. It's amazing how simple this equation is when you factor out the NFL's farting miasma of machismo and PR stunting.

QuoteNo, you have to understand these are men who play without knee ligaments for the game, and not just because of the NFL's ruthless attitude toward their labor pool. It is their individual virtue that makes them do this, not the threat of being cut immediately, or the other concept from the 19th century that is alive and well here, the complete disposability of the employee. They cripple themselves for a greater cause; there is a nobility in concussing yourself into near-retardation and a future appointment with Parkinson's, because this is more than a game, and not because they are terrified of losing their jobs, a situation making them little more than highly paid coal miners. (Adjustment: coal miners might actually die, and receive nothing like an NFL pension.)

QuoteA final 19th century concept that may be alive and well: cheap costume drama. I don't even like Jay Cutler as a player, but he and the Bears made the decision for him not to play, and them being football players and people surrounding football is enough to assume that they knew what was up and made the sound, sane decision. To say this deflates the thing the NFL and its attendant media thrives on, the moron-opera sold through terms of  personality and currencies with names like "Favre," "factorback," and "grittiness." It is greasepaint morality play underwritten by Bud Light and Ford, and it is the stupidest thing in the world not named Merrill Hoge.

No, I was just confirming after the high intellectual discussion of two months ago of how Phoenix is a culinary (and a literal) desert. So just wanted to confirm it wasn't in Tempe, Cave Creek, Carefree, Gilbert, Chandler, Scottsdale, Fountain Hills, Paradise Valley, Mesa, Glendale, Surprise, Peoria or Sun City. They're all culinary deserts, too.

I bet Kurt Warner would never go there after a loss.

Yeah, Biggs tweeted that, as well as this retweet:

QuoteIn a weird way I want Cutler to have a tear. So that he's hurt and not heartless. Is that wrong?

Stick with reporting, Biggs. You're a turd when you try to editorialize.

I don't know about the one in Chicago, but the Mastro's here is really fucking good.

So I totally get this.

How can it be that good? It's in Phoenix?

I'm assuming you didn't mean that last one to be a question?

No, I was just confirming after the high intellectual discussion of two months ago of how Phoenix is a culinary (and a literal) desert. So just wanted to confirm it wasn't in Tempe, Cave Creek, Carefree, Gilbert, Chandler, Scottsdale, Fountain Hills, Paradise Valley, Mesa, Glendale, Surprise, Peoria or Sun City. They're all culinary deserts, too.

I bet Kurt Warner would never go there after a loss.

It's in Scottsdale actually, up north, near your family (Pima and Pinnacle).

Notice you rarely see Jay out with any of his team members, except Greg Olsen once in a while. Jay should have been with the rest of the guys or at home recovering from such a serious knee injury. Jay, step it up!

(sigh) That was one ugly news cycle. Thank gord it's over

Who says it's over? It doesn't seem like Cutlergate is going away. My dumbass meathead brother is convinced Zach Zaidman was paid off by the Bears to defend Cutler. People are getting stupid crazy with this. I don't know how Jay is going to react when half of the stadium boos him during home games next year.

The Bears paid the Cubs to re-sign Todd Wellemeyer to get the local media talking about something else.

I don't want to live in a world where signing Todd Wellemeyer is worth talking about.

Satan's behind Zack Follet's criticism of Stafford. He probably caused all the Cutler criticism too.

I didn't watch this whole thing. He sounded like an idiot before the satan stuff. That just made it worse.

Stick with reporting, Biggs. You're a turd when you try to editorialize.

Steve Young was on local radio here in the Bay Area yesterday.  Although he didn't watch the game because he was in church (ahem.  oops.  I mean "amen")  he expressed the opinion that it was all Cutler's fault because Cutler allows people to dislike him.  Then even though he didn't see the game he condemned Cutler's attitude on the sidelines during the second half and his failure to coach Haney.  Then he said that although Cutler was a good quarterback he was not championship caliber and stated that he would love to help Cutler out during the offseason.  I am surprised that I remember all this because I was stunned that a former Superbowl quarterback who still uses football to earn a living was in church rather than doing his homework.

At the risk of sounding like a common Fork, I tore my MCL twice in high school. I could walk straight ahead fine, usually, but any kind of side to side motion or unexpected plant and I crumpled into a fat, hairy heap of bitch. I'm no Jay Cutler, so naturally I complained frequently, but I still rember when I slipped getting out of the car, tried to plant the knee to steady myself and instead felt like I had no knee at all as I planted face first into the driveway. So yeah, people thinking he can't walk are retared, so long as he's not a fat guy with poor balance.

Should Jay Cutler have waited a full 9 weeks before (probably) not being aware that Deadspin posted a 2005 Halloween picture of him dressed up with some other dude and smiling?  How long should someone wait to not send Deadspin a picture of himself from 5 or 6 years ago?  Will Cutler be able to live this down?
