Hopes were very high for the Chicago Bears before the start of the 2009 season. They made a few big changes and pre-season was looking very good.
The Bears had decades of mediocre quarterbacks from Kyle Orton, Rex Grossman, Chad Hutchinson, Craig Krenzel, Jonathan Quinn, Chris Chandler, Jim Miller, Cade McNown, Shane Mathews, Rick Mirer and Steve Stenstrom - that was just in the last decade. The last ten years the Indianapolis Colts have had one starting QB, Peyton Manning.
Jay Cutler has a bit of the "Favre" gun slinger approach - meaning he think he can make any throw at any time to his wide receivers. It will be interesting to see how well Jay Cutler protects the ball and limits his interceptions this season. Will he try to make the spectacular play or the smart play?
The loss of Brian Urlacher was devastating to the Bears defense - he is the quarterback of the defense. With his loss, the rest of the Bears defense must raise their game to a whole new level if they expect to compete for a division title.
The Bears opened up the 2009 season with a visit to Green Bay to face the Packers on Sunday Night Football. Expectations for this game were very high, and some even favored the Bears to win. Unfortunately, the team collapsed during this game, much of it stemming from the ineffectiveness of Jay Cutler, who threw a total of four interceptions during this game.
The Chicago Bears defense isn't what it was, they might not strike fear into the opponents hearts like they once did such as in 06'. The Bears defense still can create turnovers and cause disruption for opposing QB's - especially when the weather turns cold and windy in Soldier Filed.
Jay Cutler may be the missing piece the Bears need to finally raise the Super Bowl Trophy - first since'86. Jay Cutler isn't a "one man band" other teammates must help Cutler so he isn't trying to do everything himself.
Will the Bears step up their game and have a successful year? Time will tell.
