I respect that observation.
At the same time, you have to understand that right now the Bears do not have any great receivers. Devin Hester is the fastest mother fucker in the NFL right now, but he sucks at catching the ball. Rashied Davis is probably our number 2 guy, but he still has had his rough days too. In fact, a big part of the reason Orton had so much trouble last year was due to the lack of chemistry with the receivers. What we do have going for us is an awesome Running Back, Matt Forte, as well as two great back up RBs. We have two kick ass Tight Ends, Desmond Clark and Greg Olsen, and an average O-line and deteriorating defense. We have an offense that is great for running run plays, little wide out plays, screen plays, and the occasional shot down field. Having a gun at the QB spot is probably not going to pay off right away.
I think Cutler is a great addition to our Chicago team. I'm not complaining. I hope Devin Hester shapes up to be a better receiver than he was shaping up to be last season. And hopefully Chicago fans won't throw Cutler under the bus if he isn't as productive or if our receivers still drop passes (don't see why that will change with a new QB...). I assure you though, if Cutler acts like a primadonna or whines about taking hits, there will be trouble in Chicago.
