CHICAGO—Following the team’s blowout 55-14 loss to the Green Bay Packers Sunday night, Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler told reporters Tuesday that he would be the first person to admit the team is in dire need of a new punter. “It’s certainly not an easy thing to say, but at the end of the day, someone has to step up and accept that mistakes were made by our punter, Pat O’Donnell,” said Cutler, who pointed to O’Donnell’s blocked punt in the third quarter as playing a major role in the team’s unraveling and conceded that blame for the team’s loss rested squarely on the rookie punter. “Going forward, there will have to be some serious adjustments made to our punt unit—when individual players aren’t doing their part out there, we’re going to fall short as a team. Pat didn’t play well, and he needs to accept responsibility for that.” Cutler went on to acknowledge that Bears long snapper Jeremy Cain will also need to step up his performance significantly before next week’s game against the Vikings if the team is to have any chance of turning its season around.

Ya, I just noticed the link led to the Onion, but at first I was like "Holy shit, how dumb". So chalk one up for the onion, they fooled me.

 

[beardown07]

I mean, in fairness, he may as well have said it.

 

[Center Ice]

Cutler's gotta go anyway.

Jay is a true leader.... blaming the punter is a brilliant strategy too motivate everyone around him... If he really actually said that.... It would be funny...

 

[Desean12345]

Wouldnt surprise me at all if he actually said something that stupid.

 

[Sportsdude101]

That's pretty funny but it sounds like something Cutler would say, he's a real douche.

 

[antone112]

Troll thread is trolly

 

[redseat]

Because the kicker is the entire problem with the Bears

Maybe Cutler should look in the mirror if he wants to see the guy most responsible for the team's sub par performances.

Cutler's gotta go anyway.

Maybe he could be traded to the Eagles.

He learned this tactic from Peyton "Egghead" Manning. Tossing your teammates under the bus when things don't go well is what the greats do................................apparently.

 

[PatsFan2003]

The Onion is a very funny website, that's for sure.

 

[TxHeat]

how many guys in the locker room are saying, "we are in dire need of a new quarterback".

 

[Wazmankg]

They might need 2 of them to spell each other.














hard to believe some DB vets have never heard of the Onion.

 

[fordman84]

saw the title and was hoping it was Onion. WHEW

 

[Peter Gozintite]

We've been saying this on the Bears board since before the season started, well one of us has.
