Lovie smith took Cutler out. he wanted to play.
now it's confirmed he had a MCL sprain, most likely grade 2 which means it was slightly torn. which like i said, makes it difficult to plant and put all your weight on a foot as well as make any cuts (i.e. move around or step up effectively in the pocket).
people are hilarious. making assumptions when they have no fuckin clue what they're talking about.
i don't particularly care for cutler but he's never been a QB that's afraid to get hit (and he has been all year....guy took more sacks than anybody in the league). so people calling him a pussy or not tough are full of shit
