I'm disappointed in Martz but we can't put all the blame on him. IMO a lot of it has to go to Jay. I missed the game yesterday (I lost my man card) but after watching it last night you can clearly see the difference between Cutler and the 2nd best QB in the NFL. Rodgers doesn't hold onto the ball too long and doesn't get happy feet either. He's had a bad offensive line too. Yes the Bears offensive line has been worse but even when Cutler has time to throw the ball he's still throwing off his back foot or missing guys. It's like he can't see the field or something. Also unlike Rodgers he doesn't try to buy time or make plays with his feet. At some point fans are going to run out of people to blame for Cutler's failure to run the offense.
That's true as far as it goes, but one thing I noticed the Packers do a lot is have Rodgers roll out; when the pressure comes from one side, he just rolls out, and throws to whatever receiver is on that side of the field. Being allowed to roll out, and having receivers that will make a play in that scenario does a lot to relieve pressure. I think a Cutler is in a scheme that absolutely clashes with his skills; it ;minimizes what he does well, and maximizes his shortcomings. We're trying to hammer a square peg into a round hole (giggity).
The most troubling thing about Cutler is his propensity to air-mail passes. Those over-shots turn into easy interceptions.
