Being a Bears fan for the last few season has to be as maddening as it is to be a Browns fan. At least Browns fans expect nothing but losses now, for Bears fans it seems they are stuck in neutral. Cutting Jay Cutler seemed to be more of a frustration move and giving into fans and less about Cutlers play on the field.

There is no defense for Jay Cutlers attitude at times of the effort he has or rather hasn’t given, but cutting him in favor of giving Mike Glennon a long term deal seems to be a desperation move and one that makes little sense in the direction that they are attempting to build. What may even be more concerning for Bears fans is the fact that the front office felt the need to sign both Brian Hoyer and Mark Sanchez neither or indicative of much trust in Glennon.

For the Falcons this should be a game that they win easily on the road though there is no such thing as a give me game in the NFL this one has to be close. The Bears much like the Jets are a team that is in need of a rebuild.
