Cutler's Contract Extended

Chicago Bears v Seattle Seahawks

Jay Cutler agreed to a two year contract extension, yesterday. Here are a few links on the story:

Kevin Seifert
Jeff Dickerson

As Seifert and Dickerson point out, the timing of the move likely was influenced by finances and the uncertainties involving the collective bargaining agreement. This move obviously means that the Bears are having no second thoughts about Cutler, and that both sides were willing to be flexible and getting a deal done. I don't consider myself an idealist, but I have to at least consider that Cutler made this deal so easy, in part, because he has always been a Bears fan. Just a thought for the optimists out there.
