Also HELL YEAH MARTELLUS BENNETT TED ACTUALLY DID A THING!

Wait what?

We signed Bennett? Holy poo poo I was feeling kind of bummed about Cook going, but gently caress, that's a straight upgrade for probably similar costs to what Cook wanted.

I didn't see the value of the contract until now. I think Cook was going to be looking for 7-8 million a year. This contract is much better.

You say that like Cutler won't sign with the Packers just to sit on the bench and flip Glennon off twice a year.

I'm convinced our post-Rodgers situation will still be good. McCarthy is an amazing QB coach, and whoever we decide on as the heir will be able to learn from Rodgers for what that's worth.

Would Bennett have really been on the table for you guys at near that price though? Green bay is more likely to get him another ring and he wasn't really happy with the Bears when he left. I mean I'm shocked we got him for cheaper than Cook.

Maybe if we didn't trade him in the first place for having a personality that in no way impacted his play of the field, we could have.

I mean, 3 years, $18.5 million is not that much more than 3 years, $18 million. I mean, would you pay half a million dollars to switch Dion Sims for Martellus Bennett?

This needs to happen because
1. I love Cutler and
2. Historically the Packers do well when they have a former Bear at backup qb.

Aaron Rodgers is a fraud. His own family hates him.

Vince Young signed with the Riders. I am going to go see him play and if I see him, I'm going to hug him. Just like he instructed me to.

The 85 Bears didn't go after they won the Super Bowl cause the Challenger blew up, hence McMahon wearing his Bears jersey. I think Obama had them come in as a make up/Bears fan at some point....

Remember that time Rodgers got poked in the eye at the one yard line in the red zone, and Graham Harrell couldn't even handle playing one play where all he had to do was hand off the ball?
