The impact of having an autoimmune, metabolic disease on his brain and personality is hard to quantify. AND exogenous insulin is not a health tonic. It makes you fat and feel like shit even when it works.
I could never hate him or Tony Romo, despite all of the flack they received. As a Bucs fan, I would've gladly had either of them on the team, a QB carousel that lasted for far too long
@@Joe_Parmesan I agree...but Romo was an exceptional QB and the stats proved it, he just never had the team around him. Romo gave his heart and soul every game he played. They're like polar opposites. The only similarity is they were both unjustly hated.
@@lavetha27 Romo was completely taken for granted by many football fans. If he didn't play for the Cowboys, I don't think would've been hated as much. Dude was tough and kept playing. I didn't intend put Cutler at Romo's level, but, rather wanted to express that even with Cutler showing less than ideal effort as a whole, he was still better than anyone who came through the Bucs organization (before Tom Brady, which I never would've never guessed that would happen)
It’s like the wife wants a divorce cuz he be lazy but he’s retired so... but then she wants him to give her 5 million bucks so she can buy a mansion like dum just dum
Got a friend whose nephew played against Cutler in high school. He intercepted Jay once and said it felt like catching a concrete cinder block. Absolute cannon of an arm.
I used to manage a bar in Denver and Jay Cutler would come in and drink by himself. No teammates, no tail. Just him at the bar with his hat pulled down.
Jay Cutler to Brandon Marshall was the ultimate connection of two guys who didn't care at all but supported each other for their mutual lack of caring.
Lol that’s the best explanation I think someone could’ve gabe between the two. They were so good together but had no passion so it just wasn’t a prime time all the time thing 💀😭
@Goated Man Not exactly. He said Jay lacked the kind of leadership qualities that are needed in a great QB, but never dogged him on his talent or abilities. Jay could make every throw, according to Brandon, which is hardly calling him "garbage".
@Butch Hanson I'm sure thats what happens to most of the nfl. They get in and realize its a business and politics and figure aye im just gonna make my money and leave with the least amount of injuries possible. If I got signed to a sport for millions I wouldn't give 2 shits about entertaining fat lazy at home or making some billionaire richer. I'd come to work earn my check and go home and retire after my second contract is over
I will always remember watching his now ex’s tv show and her friends came over. He didn’t get up or say anything except “bye”. Then when the producers of the show asked him about it he said “I’m just a bigger fan of byes than hi’s”. But in all seriousness he was just an introverted dude who got a ton of hate, some warranted, a lot not so much. Who played for 3 dysfunctional franchises and is the best QB in one of those franchises history. I like Jay Cutler, I respect Jay Cutler, and I hope dude is happy.
It was his wife that asked him after they went upstairs “not even a hi from you?” and he goes “I do more byes” and she goes “Ughhhh, that was so uncomfortable”, and Jay goes “Idk, I felt pretty comfortable” 😂
I literally came back to watch this video because I remembered seeing your comment last month and laughing my ass off! And it goes so well with the meme of him smoking a cigarette, lmao! 😂
bls001 When you say ignorant things like that it makes me think you’re probably a sexist, homophobic, privileged white male!!! As a trans gender, trans race person I can tell you I’m highly oppressed in this incredibly backwards country!
The irony of her calling Jay lazy and unmotivated. This is the same women who asked him for 5 million dollars to buy a mansion when they were getting divorced.
Yeah, at least she was stupid enough to ask. At least Jay was smart enough to freeze all the bank accounts after being asked. Wonder how quick he got his lawyer to put in a separation with the court asking for a freeze on purchases and decision of assets. Get it so if she went and bought a 50 million house he was out of the financial obligations.
@Justin Hoff hell naw u delusional asf😂 and if you're referring to her company, jay was the one who gave her money for the company so shit if anything that's his company
I always thought Jay Cutler was a douche but I have actually seen him sit down in a regular situation and talk and it turns out he is like the nicest guy ever. The media made his legacy what it was
if your not a liberal the media paints you to be a problem...he's just a regular dude...I saw him talk too , and I said ohhhh ...the woke patrol killed his rep
No think what they do to a ball player, and imagine what they’d do to a person they claim a threat. Case in point what’s going on now, joe biden can do no wrong. Trump can do no right
@@dukenukembubblegum7311 Trump: 4 YEARS OF PEACE IN UKRAINE AND ISRAEL/GAZA/ME. Biden: WAR IN UKRAINE AND ISRAEL/GAZA/ME, DEATH, DESTRUCTION, ESCALATION, NO END IN SIGHT. Democrats....WE LOVE JOE, 4 MORE YEARS!!
I don't know how the Broncos team physicians missed his Diabetes for so long. He had all of the classic symptoms. Rapid weight loss. Loss of strength. Fatigue. Etc.
Haha knew the guy personally. Graduated high school and played football with him. He was a pretty cool guy if you were part of his circle. If not then he treated you like dirt. Very entitled in high school.
When he came to my Bears I was so excited! But, in keeping with typical Bears fashion they decided things might be too easy with a QB of his talent so instead of paying an offensive line they hired cardboard cutouts of human beings to protect him.
In typical Bears fashion, they tried to convert him from a rollout passer to a pocket passer. He was great on the run and only had to watch half the field that way.
Jay Cutler is one of my favorite QB’s. The fact he played for the Broncos is a start. What iced it was, playing for the Bears on a MNF game. Martz was the OC and he didn’t allow audibles. Jay walked up to the line of scrimmage, saw the defense was going to destroy the play that was called and said “F- Me!”. 😂
That's a pretty sad way to go out, though. He'll be remembered as a malcontent, underachieving douchebag. Guy works his whole life to get into the NFL and then pisses away his entire career with his shitty attitude. Who gives a shit if he's a millionaire?
Ronin 77 Jay would seems to cares about his future and financial security. Football was a job to him clearly not a passion. He could careles what people remember him as or think of him. He’s low key, never heard anything negative about him off the field. He earned millions with his ability and lives the life he wants. Can’t knock success.
@@giovannicontreraz225 I dont think Jay cares, $100 million is more than enough to last a lifetime, if he wasnt enjoying the sport anymore its not worth potentially getting yourself hurt over anymore
Heard interviews and stories how his teammates loved and he was one of the most likable guys. I’ll never forget that story how B-Marshal ask him to Loan him 60k and he ddnt it without batting an eye. Jay a real one ☝🏾
@@vurhdex2589 Luckman only threw 6 times when they beat the Redskins 73-0 it was a completely different era. But who knows Cutler probably would have had a better career running the t-formation his o-line was a embarrassment a lot of those years
As a lifelong Bears fan that was in high school/early 20s throughout his tenure with them, I have a very roller coastery relationship with Cutty lol I knew when we got him, that he was instantly the most talented QB the Bears had ever had (sad, I know). I never blamed him for his injury in the NFC Championship game, even though that one really hurt to lose to GB of all teams, who went on to beat Pittsburgh, which I believe Chicago could have as well. The Bears’ thought process was “if we can squeeze this win out, he has two weeks to recover and we have a shot at the Super Bowl. If he aggravated the injury, we had Caleb Hanie, and were fucked either way. Mike Martz was a shit OC who sold Greg Olsen for a ham sandwich for no reason, and the Bears never got him any receivers until B-Marsh, and by then it was too late. They also never bothered to build the o-line, so he did take a lot of unnecessary hits. Once he retired, I was able to watch him in a different light. His wife’s dumb show was actually must-see TV because of Jay. His smart ass comments, and idgaf demeanor, were amazing. I love retired Cutty. Overall, I think he’s just a very different kind of dude than 99% of NFL QBs, and I actually admire him. I think he did the best with what he was given, and always stayed true to who he was as a person. And now that he’s retired and all that is in the past, I’m happy to see him divorce that selfish bitch and finally relax in peace on his ranch with his kids. For a woman who has gotten by on her looks her whole life to call HIM lazy, is insane, and shows how delusional and self-centered she is. She wanted the flashy NFL QB millionaire husband, and he just didn’t give af to be that. Much love Cutty 🤘🏼❤️
Great breakdown. I would just add that I think his career was wasted by Mike Martz and Mark Trestman. Two years with Martz trying to kill him pretending he had Orlando Pace on his blind side. People questioned his toughness? I saw dude get teed off on week after week. Side note: I’ll never forget how annoyed Cutler got with Martz taking FOREVER to get the play called in. Total clown show. Then Trestman was an absolute disaster that gutted the team and left them in a state that took a few years to get back to base level. Everyone hated on Fox but he took over chaos and brought order. (Nagy only won that first year with Fox’s team.) I think Cutler could have been a top ten quarterback in the league every year if he hadn’t gone to the Bears. That said….i loved him as a long suffering Bears fan. After twenty years of noodle arm qbs it was such a breath of fresh air to have a guy who could sling it. To hell with Caleb Williams. If they don’t keep Fields I want MHJ with the first pick and Penix with the second. I don’t think even give a shit if we win anymore. Just want to see an aggressive qb sling the rock and drop it in a bucket beyond 20 yards.
Just look at Kurt Warner. A Super Bowl QB benched because he sucked in favor of a flashier more athletic Jake Plummer. Then they got a good offensive line, put Warner back in, and went to the Super Bowl. It's amazing how much fans will blame or give credit to one guy in a team sport where everyone needs to be doing their job.
Yeah, I wonder how many careers are ruined simply by being drafted into a shit show from the jump. How much of this is Cutler and how much of it an attitude necessary for survival?
He got mocked and called soft etc for being legitimately injured even though he took hard hits every game and was never scared to lower his shoulder and run through defenders. He rarely used to slide.
Dude that was seriously an awesome perspective and what makes your video so great is your complete honesty and unbiasedness. I’m not not at all a Jay Cutler fan or hater, just a football fanatic and you have something special that you need to use. Continue making videos and continue being unbiased because that’s rare. You try to see all points of view instead of force feeding a specific point down our throats. Awesome job man.
Bid Bidnanakowski if you’re not familiar with baseball then yes lol. Literally a top 5 college for baseball all time. But I can agree if you’re not a baseball person hahahaha
Cutler was pretty overrated tbh. Yeah Vanderbilt was trash and had several decades of losing, but I recall on Scout he was a 3 star recruit, and honestly at Vandy all he really had was a strong arm, he was still erratic like he was in the NFL. Old habits die hard, very overrated QB
FlightReactsTV LIVE never understood how he could look so uninterested after throwing pics or losing games. Then I got diagnosed type 1. Makes complete sense now
kaleel clark just noticed when my sugar level is off, I lose interest in things, can’t remember sentences that I started saying but couldn’t finish. I’m not a nfl qb but I know personally when things don’t go my way if my sugar is high I don’t care. Things just don’t seem to get to me the same as when my sugar is “fine”
Diabetes is a lot more serious than folks think. My mom had it as a teenager, played softball and soccer, even being that active she was diagnosed.. genetics. I never understood it and through the years saw the effects and obstacles. I never knew this about Jay, talk about an uphill battle
What an interesting, informative assessment of Jay Cutler. You really went deep with your analysis and I greatly appreciate that. Keep up the good work!
I just want to take this moment and give a big thanks for all the information given not only in this video but this channel. Keep up the good work!!! 👍
Not caring what people think is one thing but telling some dude, a fan, that he went to the same college as you who is obviously excited and all he can muster is "I don't care" maybe dude was having a bad day or something but he could have at least faked it and said "Hey right on that is awesome" no just shut the dude down cold. Celebrities that are dicks to there fans like that piss me off. They make insane money and have fame and fortune and people love them for it but without fans watching those games they would be nothing. Show some appreciation. He never did and always seemed to do the bare minimum. Maybe if he would have been more like a Brady or a Manning he would have been more successful.
JP Stone that’s why you can’t be a fan. A fanatic is being toxic. You must respect a man for his hard work and that’s it. You can not become infatuated because then those emotions start to take over. That same person you Idolized will start to become your enemy. Just my two scents. God bless.
No I get it I don't expect the dude to want to do have a beer with me or even care if I think he is a garbage QB or the GOAT. I am just saying the reason Brady, Mahomes, Goff....all these superstar players they make millions. Not that they do not work hard but they get way more money for their hard work than most and they can be paid that money because the fans are buying their jerseys, watching the games they play in, buying their special edition shoes or whatever. If your coming off to your fans like "I don't give a dame about you get out of my face" to me that is pretty trashy. I'm not saying you even have to be nice to me just don't be a dick is all.... Like I said hard to judge maybe in that moment he was having a bad day and that guy hit him up or maybe that story is BS and is a rumor. Him riding the bench after he got injured not even reacting to anything with a sourpuss look on his face though I thought that was pretty cringe too.
@@davincibleu9003 To be fair, if all the guy said was he went to the same school as Jay I wouldn't find that to be toxic at all. Not that hard to go, "Oh, that's cool" and start walking away, maybe a quick pat on the shoulder. Had it been someone asking for his autograph or something similar then that would be a different story.
He's not lazy. Ten years in the NFL is tough on your body. He made his money and now wants to retire and chill with his kids. Nothing wrong with that. Ex-wife would not of looked at him twice if he wasn't an nfl quarterback with money.
Agreed! To play in the NFL and last as long as he did takes a tough individual. The wife do crap to earn that money. I’m sure she was seeking some form of Hollywood career and got pissed when Jay wouldn’t toe her ambitions.
Yea there were couple seasons when Cutler got hit more than any QB in the league...and that fact is what his supporters would stress when critics said he wasn’t tough.
@Mr Ross Most English words have no gender at all (and those that do don't rely on an added vowel, like the word "actress"), so adding a vowel at the end doesn't make a word feminine.
I agree with you. You don't know what it feels like to have a torn MCL. Extremely painful & for a lifelong athlete who suddenly can't move right & knows something's seriously wrong versus just hurt.
I agree... it's not fair to expect Jay or every other NFL player to be a hyper-competitive lunatic like Philip Rivers who literally risked throwing away his entire career (while still young in his 20s at that) playing an AFC Championship game against the Patriots with a torn ACL + meniscus in his right knee !!! Sometimes there is a fine line between dedication and insanity.
@@jimmymadeit.1992 why don't you go watch some channels you do like instead of putting down something you don't? Seems foolish and a waste of your time. I never understood why people focus on things they don't like. 🤔
The bears summer training camp used to be held in my hometown. I remember going there every year and getting autographs. Cutler never signed any, rode out to the fields on a cart right past everyone. We asked another player why he did this, and he said it was all about money, and just the fact that cutler thought he was too good for or just didn’t care about giving autographs. One thing I’ll always remember about him lol
I’m a bears fan and we made a huge mistake giving him 100M dollars but his ex wife digs more gold than miners in Minecraft and his ex wife called him lazy and unmotivated his wife wanted a divorce because she wanted 5 million dollars to buy a mansion but he froze his bank account and told her to go get a job 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I need a jay cutler jersey now 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The look he has on that image of him on the bench says a lot! He's in a state were he feels he failed his team by getting injured! He cares about others, but he doesn't go around showing people he does! He goes straight to the person he cares about! If you get a praise from him, he actually means it! He's not a show-off! Nuff Said!
Can you blame him? His offensive line was always shit. If the team wasn’t going to invest in protecting him why should he care? In one season he was sacked 52 times
Jerry Kwerve exactly. As a Bears fan I never disliked Jay. I saw him as a regular QB because he was never surrounded by the proper pieces. An outdated coach (who is struggling in college) that believed running and defense were the way to win and hiring an OC(who was Lovie Smith’s head coach in ST. Louis) that didn’t know his personnel.
You forget to mention, he had 1 receiver to throw to, & another who couldn't run a route (Hester). After being sacked so many times & banged up, Cutler just wanted to get the ball out of his hands.
He's still very young. He's worked half the time other people has worked, and he made his money playing a game. Nobody thinks of that as a real job. It's a damn hobby more than a job. I played sports for years and practiced all the time, and I never made shit. Never thought it was a job either. I traveled if I had to, went to practice, played all year around in different sports. It wasn't easy.
@@BananaManV5 lol That doesn't make any sense. There are lots of people that aren't that talented that play pro. They don't even put in much work in practice and are lazy. They get cut or don't last long in the league either. I was very talented growing up but I didn't play a lot of hs ball because of my grades and getting kicked off teams. My cousin was very talented in football but partied in college and lost his chance to go pro. Talent isn't everything.
Eric Bogar fair, but you could’ve bounced back from that, you just didn’t. That’s y’all’s decisions that fucked your chances to be known, to have what everyone desires. And part of that talent is showing that you can do what you need to do to play, you couldn’t, 99% can’t. Nothing to feel bad about just reality.
Jay went to my high school. He was a 3 sport athlete, playing football, baseball and basketball. His attitude was the same back then. Laid back and chill. During timeouts of basketball games he would just stand away from the rest of the team by himself. He has always been that person.
@@twistedinnocence8617 They say lazy as squandering potential. All his teammates say he had as much god given talent as anyone. So yes you can be lazy and successful. No different than through birth you can inherit an entire company you will run one day. Plenty of people might dedicate their life to similar goals and never have a chance.
I think football fans are hilarious they think that all football players should act a certain way as if none of them have a life outside of football to some of them football is just a job that they're good at. Think of your job you're nine to five or if you have your own business is it something you love or something you're just good at think of that. Makes me think of that famous movie line "are you not entertained"
@@MrJbee73 Most football fans think players should try to do their best and win, and not just collect a paycheck. Anyone who has worked with people like that doesn't have much respect for those types.
I watched this whole thing before reading comments.. After comments and learning Cutler froze bank account and told wife to get a job I have a new respect for the man. MVP !
Came upon your channel by chance, great 411, content and back stories, old school NY G-men fan here as well as football fan overall. Your videos are polished & professional, that said: subscribed. Flemlo Raps aka "Really Inside the NFL". Keep up the good work!
Imagine your husband getting you millions of dollars and anything you can imagine and calling him lazy and unmotivated I’m a bears fan but what he did to his ex wife is just gold I want a jay Cutler Jersey now 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I like your channel. First 2 videos I watched you covered Plummer and Cutler. These are two of my favorite QBs and I get their personalities and way of being. It is a good thing to be able to not care much what others think of you. We are what we are. I can definitely relate.
Honestly, his injury to the Packers is what made me start respecting him. Because he did continue playing for a while. And it was the coach who benched him. His "emotionless" on the sidelines is bogus. People handle it differently. Withdrawn and dejection is a very emotional state. People who can't accept that, are the ones with an issue. I didn't know he had type 1 diabetes. That makes everything he did insanely more impressive. Honestly, to do ten years with it? It's amazing. And telling his wife to get a job when she wanted to take his stuff. Legend status.
Agreed. He doesn’t look enotionless or like he doesn’t care, he looks dejected and disappointed. Imagine going so far, finally having a great season and getting injured. People saying he doesn’t give a shit have no idea what they’re talking about in my opinion.
Tv taught us to expect actors exaggerating emotions like sports commentators do but any man knows men dont show feelings if theyre real, not the unhappy ones, nobody wants to see that
In his time at Chicago, Cutler had six offensive coordinators. He’s had to adjust to a new offense nearly every season, working to master a playbook, then turning around to do it again. And yet he still put up record number YRDs and TDs with Bears. With no decent WRs or play calling.
In his defense, during his time in Chicago they never took the O-line seriously. The team despite what people think couldn't even run very well compared to the rest of the league. Forte had a lot of his success catching passes on checkdowns while Jay was running for his life.
Finally found someone who has some sense. When he got to Chicago he was running for his life with no protection. Devin Hester was the number 1 receiver. Had we had the same Marc tresmen offense with lovie Smith defense he'd been won a super bowl. Let's not forget he was on a run starting 7-3 broke his thumb they ended up 8-8. He put the 🐻 s in the lead to clinch the division defense gave up a game winning touchdown against the packers. Twice Smh
Television programs have narratives that put actual athletes in boxes in reality. No matter what a person eyes can see the shit they hear constantly affects their perception. It's a fool's sickness. Don't believe me think of Eli, Flacco, Romo, & Rivers.
Great video i just wish Flem had added the famous wildcat clip of Jay (in his year w/ the Dolphins) just standing there with his hands on his hips IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PLAY BEING EXECUTED!! Lol... XD
I think the best thing about jay was that he had a ima clock into work do my job mind my business keep to myself and clock type of mindset which people doubt a lot but I like it not everyone needs to be friendly
Yeah, and I'm tired of this notion that the QB has to be a CEO and give speeches like General Patton and "rally the troops". By today's standards Johnny Unitas, Bart Starr, Kenny Stabler, Len Dawson and probably a half dozen all time greats wouldn't considered "the face of the franchse" or "leaders". Jeez, the rah rah stuff should be by the Fullback or a lineman, like in the movie "North Dallas Forty."
@@canadiansoviet I couldn't have said it better. He already didn't care and the bears thought giving him 1mill+ would help him care more? Ass backwards
I really like your presentation style. You come to your own conclusions, definitely, but you keep a very open mind and seem to give honest feedback on points that I feel others would either downplay or hype up to sensationalize. Keep it up
I grew up a Bears fan so here’s how I’d break down our perception of him: It’s only the old fans fans who may actually hate him. The ones who were adults in 85. They felt like he owed them that Lombardi trophy in 2011. The majority of us recognized his potential and the team’s potential with him under center and yearned for him to deliver. But what unites all us Bears fans is that we “all” miss him.
Most QBs play with injuries, because they aren't pussies. Cutler was a pussy. Rivers played with a completely blown out and torn ACL. Cutler quit when he had nothing but a pull.
rdizzy1 you try to play with a broken anything in a football game with the other side only caring about how hard they hit you until you feel a NFL LB or DB hitting you just shut up. Cause if you were out there and got hit once you would have walked off every hit feels like a punch to the face breaking/ spraining or tearing something is even worse
as a type 1 diabetic, i have no clue how his sugars stayed level while playing. (edit: posted this a while ago, i now understand that your sugars get a LOT higher later in. at the time of posting i was about 6 months in to being a diabetic with frequent lows, but now i have much more frequent highs. thanks for the likes too!
Cole Sneed. I trained for years as a powerlifter and track thrower with the late Mike Lauderdale at UC, Santa Barbara and elsewhere in the U.S. The guy squatted 515, benchpressed 365, and deadlifted 530 in the late 1970s, plus threw the hammer about 200 feet, all weighing 195 lbs. He was a Type 1 diabetic and had no way to measure his blood sugar because the technology did not yet exist. He went through hell with that disease. He never used PEDs. If Cutler only suffered half the MISERIES with diabetes that Mike did, his college and pro football achievements should be respected.
No joke. My daughter has type 1. She missed 223 games in high school and been in ICU 6 times and almost died in Daytona Beach. I don’t know anyone who is like, whew! It’s just type 1 diabetes.

Jay cutler lives 10 mins from me. At my old school he used to come to all of my football games because my school was 5 mins from his house. I used to see him once a week.
