The QB Drama

Normally I try not to pay attention to anything to do with the Denver Broncos. Just because I live in Colorado doesn't mean I have to like them. But, since there are some nights that this damn Jay Cutler drama leads the news it's hard to ignore. And really it's rather funny. I don't know why anyone is surprised by how Jay has handled this whole thing. He's a big baby. My boyfriend is a Broncos fan so I do watch their games with him and countless times I've seen Jay sitting on the end of the bench pouting because a drive to go well. He's a baby and of course he's going to have a fit if the new coach thinks of trading him.

I also don't know why anyone might be surprised that Josh McDaniels would look into getting Matt Cassel. And honestly I'm sure the only reason it didn't happen is the third team involved wouldn't give up the right players.

Regardless of is Jay gets traded this year or not I'd almost be willing to put money on the fact that Matt Cassel will be a Denver Bronco by the 2010 - 2011 season. I wouldn't rule out the possibility of him being a Bronco this coming season. However, I'd be surprised if there was a straight across the board trade of Cutler for Cassel. The reason I don't see that happening is because they are in the same division. If the Broncos traded Cutler to the Cheifs and then something happened and they got pounded by the Cheifs all hell would break lose. And if the Cheifs ended up with Cutler and he didn't play well (especially against the Broncos) then the Cheifs management would never hear the end of it.

Honestly though I don't know if the Cheifs would trade Cassel anyway because if who ever the ended up as a QB didn't perform well then it would be a disaster. However, I don't rule out a Cutler to Detroit for the first pick and then the first pick to Kansas City for Cassel senario. That's probably too obvious to happen but, it would serve Cutler right.

And like I said if it doesn't happen this year Cassel will be a Bronco next season. He already said he was happy to play for the $14 million he gets because New England made him a franchise player. So if he isn't traded to Denver (where he would most likely immediately sign a multi-year deal) he'll play this year in KC and then unless again tagged as a franchise player he'll sign a deal in Denver at which point the Broncos will have to trade Cutler if they don't do it this year.

The only thing I don't want is for Cutler to end up in Chicago. I don't like Kyle Orton and think the Bears need a different QB but, Cutler is not the QB for them.
