Dilfer Disses Cutler
"I believe Jay Cutler is one of the top 12 quarterbacks in the NFL, but I would not put him in the top eight. He has a lot more to prove."
Dilfer's concern — and one area he doesn't give Cutler an edge over Sage Rosenfels or Tarvaris Jackson — is managing key downs.
"What takes a quarterback to the next level is not arm strength or mobility or any of that stuff," Dilfer said. "It's the ability to play on critical downs. Manage third downs, or red zones or four-minute or two-minute situations.
"I think that Sage, Tarvaris and Jay Cutler are all in the same boat in that sense. None have proven they can do it a high level consistently."

Again, sorry if this was posted already. I didn't see anything... BUT, who is this tool? Of all the things to pick on.... on Cutler... he goes here?
Please, Cutler complete almost 50% of third down conversions. 3rd in football... the $-down. He's had his fair share of comeback wins as well.... Sure, he makes mistakes... but, Cool Hand Cutler is the money-down QB.
Let's review Sage & Tavaris and see what they did on 3rd down.
