Lol all you want. With that line, Dez Bryant and a great running game, Cutler could tear it up in Dallas. Chicago would be stupid to let him go though.
Wait, what am I saying? Chicago is stupid.

Chicago isnt that stupid. They were in a conference championship in 2010 and a SB in 2006.

Here is a list of Free Agent QB's currently available (from nfltraderumors.com). Not a ton of players on this list to get too excited about. I'm not sure I could see them trading for a starter either though.

Jimmy Clausen
Dalyn Williams
Matt Blanchard
Matt Johnson
Johnny Manziel
Ryan Williams
T.J. Yates
Charlie Whitehurst
Josh Freeman
Josh Woodrum
Ryan Lindley
Max Wittek
Griffin Neal
Matt Flynn

I like Cutler too. The Bears are pretty damn stupid, especially when it comes to the QB position. Even when they have success, it seems to be more a fluke or despite themselves. For such a large market that takes football so seriously, you'd think they would have more than one ring 30 years ago to show for it.
You know I might give SF a call and see if they want to get Kaepernick off their hands before things get any weirder or uglier. It'd be a passable insurance policy in case Prescott is a mere product of preseason.

Dak Prescott looked pretty damn good to me.

Let me put this as diplomatically as possible.

That locker room cancer can just stay in Chicago. Besides - there is absolutely no room within the structure of the Cowboys salary cap for that malignancy.

You should be a athletic/jock supporter for all I care. I'd rather have rectal cancer than let that pussy-assed loser that's not fit to lead a j.v field hockey team with yeast infections.

Never mind all that other crap Roadhog, Cutler is not tough enough to play on the Cowboys or any other winning team. He right where he belongs, on a 6-10 team.

We are just better off going with Prescott and our young guys and take our lumps this year. The killer will be the cap hit though if we do let Romo go, which I don't see happening.

Dak Prescott is better than all those guys.

But out of that list I'd take Dan LeFevour.

He's the only one out of those players with a bit of upside left imo. He's big and can run fast at least.

I think you're right. You ride with the young man who has showed a lot of promise in the preseason. If he plays like crap, hopefully the retooled running game keeps you around .500 until Romo can come back in the middle of the year. They have a week 7 bye which might time up nicely with his return to health. If Prescott plays well, then you Bledsoe Romo out to pasture and let the young guy keep doing his thing.

I'm personally not hopping on the "Dax Train" yet, I think the world between preseason and regular season is enormous, and I watched enough of him in college to think he might not be the late round sleeper who comes in and saves the day. This is where it really stings that Kellen Moore got injured as well, I'm sure this would be his team if he were not injured right now, and I think he would be a much more suitable starter. But you guys are right, there's not many on that list who are too promising.

Basically, even if Dak doesn't turn out to be such a great option, he's still the best option. That's really what it boils down to.

He lead his team to a conference championship game. Romo has 2 playoff wins.

Oh, that's right. Is that when Cutler broke a hang nail and sat on the sideline riding his bike when his team needed him the most? At least Romo will battle till he gets hurt or throw an INT. Damn your a moron, wow.

Lots of pretend Archie Manning honorary, we know you are really good QB still, awards.
