Cutler Fed Up With Denver and Wants Out


The Cutler fiasco has finally reached the point of no return. Cutler wants out of Denver and numerous teams are ready to make an offer for him.


The problem for Denver is, no matter what comes out of it, they're going to be worse off than they were with Cutler. Of the several possible teams that want Cutler, none of them have anything better than Cutler to offer. Here's some of the possibilities:


  • Cleveland- Derek Anderson/Brady Quinn

  • San Francisco- Shaun Hill

  • New York Jets-Kellen Clemens

  • Detroit- Daunte Culpepper

Of these four teams, Cutler's best fit would seem to be the Jets. The Jets have already proven what they're capable of with a gun-slinger type quarterback (Brett Favre). Their defense improved tremendously last season, and Cutler would have a more balanced offesne to work with.


However, the Broncos most likely are not going to trade him to an AFC team where Cutler can hurt them down the road. I could realistically see the Lions dealing their #1 pick and maybe another draft pick to get Cutler.


It's hard to pin-down the exact team Cutler will go to because there are so many teams that need a quarterback right now, but I'm positive it will be an NFC team.


Either way, the Broncos are in trouble. Their defense is horrendous. They have no running game, and their biggest offensive threats in Eddie Royal and Brandon Marshall now have no quarterback to get them the ball.


The only positive for Denver is that they play in the worst division in the NFL and where even a BAD team can win the division and earn a first-round playoff exit. Congrats Denver!
