Poor Jay Cutler. The guy has been pummeled during his time with the Bears thanks to Mike Martz’s pass-happy offense and his reluctance to scale back, even as Chicago’s offensive line has proven to be softer than Jell-o.

“Jay’s been here for two years and three games,” Tom Waddle said Tuesday on “Around the League”. “Over the course of that time in a Bears uniform, he’s been sacked 101 times. … Up front, that offensive line has really struggled to protect Jay.”

Ya think? And Michael Vick thinks he has it bad.

Martz might want to think about running it more — if not for Cutler’s sake, then maybe the Bears’ defense, which can use a rest from time to time.
