You would think that when the Chicago Bears lost to the New Orleans Saints 30-13 that ultra-famous and ultra-sexy Bears QB Jay Cutler wouldn’t be able to dominate.
But you couldn’t be more wrong.
In fact, I saw nothing but pure domination last Sunday.
1. Dominant Hand-off to Matt Forte
Not even three minutes into the game and Cutler is already making a case for himself as league MVP. The Bears line up in an I-formation, but Cutler quickly audibles out of that and into more of a short passing formation. As you can see, the Saints are completely confused.
Does Cutler pass the ball and show off his cannon? Nope. He knows his offensive line won’t allow that; so, instead, he hands of the ball to Forte, who then runs for a 42 yards.
Picture perfect play setup by Cutler. You don’t see Tom Brady doing that.
2. Dominant TD Pass to Dane Sanzenbacher
If the Forte play wasn’t enough to convince you Cutler had a dominant game then let this video be the one to convince you. We see a very simple offensive formation here, but what does Cutler do that fools the Saints’ defense? I’ll give you a hint: It was the same thing that made the Falcons look silly last week that I pointed out in last week’s “Jay Cutler Dominates” article.
Was it…
A.) A halfback draw play
B.) Play action pass
C.) QB scramble
If you answered B, you’re correct!
Not only does Cutler notch his first TD pass of the game, but Sanzenbacher earns his first every TD reception of his NFL career.
Did you see any difficulty in that pass? I sure didn’t. But there must’ve been some difficulty in it since every Cutler TD is greater and more difficult to achieve than all other TD passes combined.
Add another TD to the stat sheet for Cutler, baby!!
3. Cutler Still Dominant After Being Sacked 4 times in a Row.
Most quarterbacks like to avoid being sacked, but Cutler, it seems, loves it. In fact, he loves it so much, Cutler decided he wanted to have absolutely no protection and be sacked 4 times in a row.
I don’t know what to say to you folks. Cutler works in mysterious ways that even the smartest human beings can’t begin to comprehend.
After Cutler gets up, with what I assume is him smiling with his head down, he tosses the ball to the referee while thanking him for not calling a defensive penalty that would’ve discouraged him from receiving future hits from two Saints defenders.
Offensive lineman Roberto Garza and Chris Spencer go up to Cutler and ask him “Master, have we done well?” Cutler, too proud to acknowledge them, walks off the field.
Another great quarterback who was sacked a lot was John Elway. Elway has the NFL record for most times sacked with 516. I am not saying the two-time Super Bowl winner, nine time Pro Bowl selection, and 1987 NFL MVP, is better than Cutler because he isn’t. All I am saying is you can be successful in the NFL and be violently driven to the turf every game.
