Martz - Rams Offensive playbook

[JackofDiamonds]

Faulk is right about the OL. Cutler did pretty well while running for his life.

That receiver corps was a bit thin too.

Cutler played behind the best offensive line in football in Denver, with fantastic receivers, and he still was only a middle of the road quarterback. His football IQ is sub-zero.

Dude was just learning the ways of the NFL during his Donkey days. I'm glad Cutler is out of the AFC West. He made us nervous over here in Chiefdom...

Getting out from under the shadow of Elway The Great may not be a bad thing either. Fair or not, Bronco fans were going to start the Cutler-Elway comparisons pretty soon.

Yeah, you've thrived since he left.

pwned.

We'll see with Cutler. Definitely has talent. His cockiness is his greatest strength and weakness -he doesn't seem to dwell on his mistakes which is good, but doesn't seem to learn from them either. High risk high reward guy.

I think he's always had a decent surrounding cast (save for last years line). Forte is solid, WR and TE corps is more than adequate. Cutler can't use that as an excuse.

Defense seems to love to hit him. And Martz Qbs have been known to take a shot or two. How many hits before Cutler becomes like Bulger or that Warner era.

Another odd Martz factor - he'll have the dome games in Detroit and Minn - but can he run a game plan that muds it out in GB and Chi?

Cutler himself started those comparisons in 2008. This is the type of arrogance that has turned him off to many fans:

"I have a stronger arm than John Elway, hands down. I'll bet on it against anybody's in the league. Brett Favre's got a cannon. But on game days, there's nobody in the league who's going to throw it harder than I am at all."

meh-

1- I'd like to see what the question was. It could have been something like "what is one thing you do better than Elway?"

2- It's true

I think you kinda missed the point. In Denver, nobody does anything better than John Elway, especially a young punk quarterback that has never won anything. There's absolutely no question that could have been asked of him that would justify him thinking that he's better than Elway at ANYTHING, at that point of his career. Even if it's true (and Cutler has no way of knowing if it's true or not), the correct answer is "Elway is a legend in Denver........ if I can ever even be mentioned in the same breath as him, I'll consider myself to have had a sensational career".

[redbirdjazzz]

Besides the fact that Elway was always known for being able to throw 70+ yards on the fly (with accuracy), Socnorb nailed what Cutler's response should've been.

[Socnorb11]

Can you imagine the reaction of Pujols had made the following statement after his second season in baseball:

"I am a better defender than Stan Musial was, hands down. I'll bet on it against anybody in the league."


You just don't go there with guys like Elway and Musial.

Yeah, you've thrived since he left.

19 winning seasons and 3 playoff wins in the last 40 years... that could test one's patience.
