Y2Jimmy0 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 17, 2014 -> 05:52 PM) Got to be Emery. Completely disagree. This is all Trestman. Emery threw Trestman under the bus Monday night for not firing Kromer. This is Trestman firing back at Emery. Trestman knows that he is fired in 2 weeks and he's gonna go down his own way.

Trestman is doing this, hoping that Clausen will run the offense properly and Trestman can blame Jay and parlay that into an OC job somewhere.

HuskyCaucasian Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Pat Mannelly is saying on the Score that the team had no idea the QB change was coming. Trestman told the QBs yesterday, and was going to tell them today. The change was leaked last night before he could tell the team. Total Dysfunction.

I have a theory that Trestman is doing this to show everyone that Cutler is the issue. The team played well with McCown last year, and if they can play well (but hopefully not win) their last 2 games, Tresman can say "see, it's him, not me." These two tweets are telling: @MikeSilver What I just said on @nflnetwork : Bears offensive players believe Clausen will 'light it up,' simply because he'll run offense as prescribed @MikeSilver I'm told Trestman felt he could no longer play Cutler 'simply to justify a contract' when his performance was so poor... @MikeSilver Also: Cutler has been looking great in practice but 'seeing ghosts' once he steps over the white lines... @MikeSilver I'm told it was a 'coaching decision' to bench Cutler for Clausen--meaning Trestman, not Emery, made this call. Silver later said he had 15 sources on this. 15!!! What does that say about the feelings for Cutler within the organization?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dasox24 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 (edited) I would rather watch Fales like most of you. But if he isn't ready, maybe it's good not to throw him out there against a defense as good as the Lions. He could get eaten alive. That said, I am also looking forward to seeing Clausen. Not because I think he could be our starter next year, but rather, I think it's important to find out if he can be a quality backup. No matter who our starter is next year, if Clausen plays well to end the season, then it will be reassuring to know we have a decent backup QB with could win some games for us if the starter gets hurt.

Or it could be a brilliant decision to try and showcase how mature he is, which in turn could help trick a team into trading for him? They know Cutler's not going to say anything stupid.

Chisoxfn Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 http://espn.go.com/chicago/nfl/story/_/id/...e-marc-trestman According to this, some Bears players (I'm going to presume Tillman / Briggs) are pointing out how hypocritical punishment has been. In fact, Tillman has publicly stated that the Bears players still support and have faith in Cutler. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap300000044...faith-in-cutler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All depends on how he responds to it. Could be something that helps him wake up. No idea. I still say at the end of the season, we let whomever the new people who are running the organization make the decision of what to do with Jay, not the current bunch of clowns.

Rowand44 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Cutler deserves a ton of blame this year but I'm kind of expecting him to light it up with some other team next season. Just seems like something that would happen to the Bears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
