Just look at today's explanation of why he thinks Jay Cutler is such a great QB: well, sure he sucks late in the season, and he's never had a winnning record or gotten his team into the playoffs (even after Jake Plummer got the Donks off to a 7-4 start). But he's a major difference maker and a lot of people like his arm. Jeff George? Never heard of him. I’m scoffing at Peter King’s ranking-teams-as-of-right-now

Not to mention he is without the genius offensive mind this year in Shannahan. I live in chicago and even Bears fans haven't been this bold in predictions. Wgbeethree, that is some great info.

I think he is a very solid player, but i think if the packers would give him a huge extension, it would be a huge mistake. Ohhhhhh… can’t wait for the article about Kampman.

Yes, they have Cutler, but who's going to catch his passes? Who's going to protect him once everyone realizes that Orlando Pace is old,and, at some point I'm sure, injured? --- How's their defense going to suddenly improve on it's 22nd ranked performance? Glenn Earl? Doubtful. Jarron Gilbert? Only if they suddenly put swimming pools on the field. Anyone drafted after round 3? Unlikely, for this season at least. Until the Bears prove otherwise, they are just another middle of the pack team. I think King’s rankings of the Packers and Vikings are pretty much right on, although ranking the Bears at #4 is silly.

Don't get me started with Justin Beaver. You obviously didn't look at his stats in College or see any highlights or the fact that he won the Gagliardi Trophy. He looked like the next Jones-Drew. The Canadian league got lucky this year.. Wow. Don’t get me started with Justin Beaver.

I'm excited. (No sarcasm. Seriously) And about all of the articles involving the undrafted free agents. I think it all goes back to the title of this post. They got nothin' either, Aaron. I think we all realize most of these guys won't ever sniff an NFL roster, but it's still a nice read during a slow news time :) Oooooo CheeseheadTV Anthology. I’m excited. (No sarcasm. Seriously)
