Jay is historically bad in the Bears 10-6 loss to the 49ers.
Jay Cutler gift wrapped a W for the San Francisco 49ers by throwing five – yes 5 - interceptions. In case you wer lucky enough not to witness it because you don’t get the NFL Network, you can relive the lowlights from my live game blog here and for more coverage on the game, check out my post-game wrap here.
If you want to relive an historically bad performance, check out all 5 picks here, here, here, here and here. Yup – that’s 5 on the night and 17 on the season! 17 freaking picks! He leads the NFL. As in worse than Jake Delhomme or Derek Anderson.
Ironically, Kyle Orton was the last Bear to throw 5 picks in a game in his rookie season. You remember Orton, right? The guy we traded along with two first round draft picks to get our “franchise quarterback.” Cutler had more INT’s tonight than Orton has on the season – THE SEASON!
That is beyond Grossman-esque. It is single-handedly the worst quarterbacking performance that I can ever remember. That includes Rex Grossman, Craig Krenzel, Jonathan Quinn and the whole bunch that they’ve trotted out of the Bears QB Clown Car.
Of course, the NFL Network had to remind us of our QB impotence by digging up the Micro Machines fast talker guy, rapid-fire pitchman John Moschitta Jr., from whatever crevice he fell into for two decades to rattle off “The List.” In Chicago, The List is the list of starting QB’s that the Bears have trotted out since Jim McMahon led the Bears to their Super Bowl season back in 1985.
People can try to defend Cutler by saying he has no time because the offensive line sucks or that he has no receivers or whatever other excuses they want to throw out there. You can say that Hester fell down on one of the picks or that the ref bumped him off on another. The bottom line is that you cannot throw picks to 300 pound defensive linemen at the goal line. You cannot throw into triple coverage. You must protect the ball. Period. Bottom line. End of story.
All that’s left for the 2009 season is to help Bronco fans start planning what to do with a top 10 pick in the 2010 draft and to start looking for the next quarterback to trot out of the Bears QB Clown Car.

Hello fellow Bears fans!!! Let me take a moment to introduce myself. My name is Mike Burzawa, but those closest to me know me as Boomer. It’s a nickname that I’ve had for many, many years (long before I ever heard of that guy on ESPN) and I thought I’d post under that alias. I’m the new lead blogger for Bear Goggles On (I can’t take credit for the name), where I’ll be sharing my views and perspectives on the team we all love.
I’m a lifelong Chicagoan and a die hard fan of Da Bears. I’ve been around for the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. I mean, what was your favorite moment of the Cade McNown era??? The end, if you ask me!!! I have been going on an annual trip to an away Bears game for the last 13 years, so I’ve seen many different sports cities and I’m here to tell you that Chicago fans are second to none!!! As the greatest fans in the NFL, we deserve the greatest blog. I’ll do my best, but I’ll need your help.
I plan to share my take on the team and give a true fan’s perspective. Every once in a while, I’ll put the “Bear” goggles on and sip the Orange and Blue Kool Aide, but I’ll also “Lower the Boom” when I think it’s called for.
Most of all, I want to have some fun and the best way to do that is through your participation, so please feel free to comment, e-mail and share this site with other Bears fans.

[...] Loyal Bears blogger questions whether or not Jay Cutler is turning out to be yet another failure at QB for Chicago. Right after a game in which he threw 5 picks to make him the NFL leader in interceptions. Two of which came in the red zone. I sort of thought this question had been answered, but then again I still hear people debating the validity of climate change… So I’ll help you all out. Yes, he sucks. He sucks as much as his diabetes and disappearing chin. And yes, science and facts are real. Next topic. <beargoggleson> [...]
