"We had some protection issues last game," Cutler said. "There might have still been some little effects from that, just trusting the guys up there." Cutler was starting to sport "happy feet" at the slightest hint of pressure Saturday night. It's a troublesome sign heading into the season because the pressure isn't going away.

Good point. That can do no good at all. Probably the last thing an OL wants to hear. It's bad enough if a coach says it, but the QB?...not good.

He might as well point it out.The line is horrible and is one of the reasons I played under for the season win total when the line came out. In the Martz offensive system even with a good offensive line the QB will get hit a lot. With a bad OL Cutler is going to get killed .Plus there is the added bonus of Forte either not being able to or not wanting to pick up blitzers.

I think it was 16 times so far, and how many snaps has he taken? He may not live to see game 6 if it continues like this in the when the real games start!
