| amp316 said: I believe in longevity in greatness too. The problem is that Manning doesn't have much greatness left in him. They have to win it all this year or next and then it's pretty much over and it usually takes a year for any QB to click on all cylinders with his new team. The window of oppotunity is rapidly closing and he Manning got there. All Bears fans are concerned for Cutler's health, but last year the O-Line was mediocre (he injured himself while tackling someone after his receiver fell down) which was a huge step up from being worst in the league the year before. If they can be okay this year, then I will be happy. |
That is arguable. You have to remember that Manning 's greatness is not just physical, but also mental greatness as well. You cannot say he is not known as the mastermind of the game, and the most anal in his preperation. These kinds of qualities put him ahead of other quarterbacks coming to a new team. Not to mention Coach John Fox will let Manning run a hybrid of Manning's system and those created by our offensive coaching staff. I refuse to count him out yet. It is still not to worrisome because if Peyton some how fails his contract is written like each year is a one season contract. Something done because he is making so, so much money.
Yeah, it is clear your o-line is the weak point. Obviously, you guys improved the offense as a whole, but I still question the potential without knowing if the bears have even brought in any new o-line players or a coach.
