"Hey Jay, Marc. Eat a Snickers." "Why?" "Cause you guys are Emotionless and Boring when you're both Hungry."

{Jay Cutler cannot seem to understand what is happening or what a smile is}

I cannot believe I found a picture of Jay Cutler's smiling face as he was being introduced as the new quarterback for the Chicago Bears. No seriously, you can totally see it. I mean sure, you may have to flip your screen upside down to see it, but it is there. Perhaps he should consider some kind of surgery that could flip his mouth upside down so that even when he has his "Cutler Face" on, we would not be able to tell because he'd then be smiling. I could go on, but I think you guys know where I am going with this. Simply put, we have got to get this guy to crack some type of smile or something before football season end.

For six years now, Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler has been handed this "Torch of Leadership" in order to shine it upon his teammates whenever things seemed to be going wrong and sinking into darkness, and give them a shining leader to follow into battle. Look around the NFL and you will find that each team has a player that is doing so, especially at the QB position. At QB, you'll see the Broncos have Peyton Manning, Patriots have Tom Brady, Colts have Andrew Luck, Chargers have Philip Rivers, Saints have Drew Brees, Giants have Eli Manning, and so on and so forth. The point is, every single one of these guys shows some type of attitude and energy every game day. Very one of those named QBs are carrying that "Torch of Leadership" for their team. And then there's this guy.

{Jay Cutler in deep thought about whether he remembered to turn the stove off instead of playing the game}

Ah yes, good ol' stone face. As I said before, he's been handed the torch for six years now. But for some reason, he acts like one really quiet kid that no one hears a word out of or ever sees like smiling or playing with the other kids. And like the really quiet kids do when they are asked to talk, he seems to just look at that torch and go, "I'm good. I'll pass for now." Here's the deal sourpuss: if you are going to get paid like an elite quarterback and play in the NFL, then you cannot just give a "pass" on stepping up and being a leader for this group.

As someone who has played this game and enjoys everything about it, I can honestly say that things might actually be better if he were to just perk up a little bit more in the games. I mean seriously, how could anyone play this game without having any energy or excitement in them at all? When I was playing back in high school, I never saw any playing time on the field as a starter, but that didn't stop me from getting excited, cheering on my teammates as loud and best I could, and simply going ballistic in order to try and set a strong tone. Plus, I love the game of football so much that it was always a joy and blessing just to be there on Friday nights under the lights. Now I don't know if all the yelling, cheering, and insanity ever worked to help set the tone for games; it couldn't have hurt any though, right? Well, it actually did hurt my throat a lot after every game, but besides that, it never seemed to hurt us.

{Jay Cutler thinks to himself, "My god, if this doesn't end soon, I'll miss Law & Order again!"}

So if I could act that excited for a high school football game, you would think that a pro football quarterback like Cutler would throw his team and us fans a little smile just so we know he's enjoying himself... and you know, not dead. It's been shown at all levels of the game and in just about every team sport there is to play that if teams have a mixed chemistry of hard work, determination, charisma, and character, then there is a better chance of getting the best performance out of your players. Right Now, the Chicago Bears are lacking the leadership that should be singing bright though these difficult times, are now giving no sense of determination, have no feel of charisma or character, and probably have been slacking on the trying to work hard. 

I know for some, it would be the best option to see the Bears just drop the last of their games and try to get a high draft pick for 2015. But as nice as it would be to see the Bears have a top ten pick at this coming NFL Draft in the windy city, I would rather see Chicago go down fighting than just decide that the best option would be to roll over and submit defeat. It's not who we are. The great people of the city of Chicago, those throughout the state of Illinois, and those that are sons and daughters of this fine state have all had to endure the harsh cold winds, icy rain, thick snow, violence at every turn, taking the L at any time, and Lake Michigan of course. We are the type of people that have the "never say die!" attitude that we need to start seeing from our beloved Chicago Bears. Honestly guys, your giving us all a worse rep than we need.

Now Cutler isn't all to blame really. After all, the two Bears' head coaches he's dealt with (Lovie Smith and Marc Trestman) may have been the ones that gave him the "Cutler Face" since neither of them ever seem to smile or joke or yell or anything. They just try to play Captain Positive and say they hope for the best. This year alone, I could have swore I heard Trestman say in a press conference that he was positive that good things were going to come soon at least four or five times. Well no more hoping! When the NFL first started, we were one of best teams and were champions thanks to a bad-tempered old man that started it all named George "Papa Bear" Halas. he was one of those men that could grab the helmet of fearsome linebacker Dick Butkus and yell in his face while spitting on him as well; and not very many did so. Then we had a group of talented athletes in the 1980s that had a loud and proud coach named Mike Ditka as head coach, who would often times butt heads with the very vocal defensive coordinator Buddy Ryan (Rex and Rob Ryan's father and natives to Illinois).

So it's basically simple guys: these two smile a little more and fire it up some, and we could see ourselves finish on a promising strong note at possibly 9-7. Of course the backfire on that is that the season would be looked at as an improvement over last year, giving the organization a reason to keep Trestman and Cutler around. That's just another headache waiting to happen, so they both gotta go either way. But I am just asking that from here on out and on behalf of all Chicago Bears fans, Illinoisans, and NFL fans all over, that both Marc Trestman and Jay Cutler please crank up the euphoria to like level 1000 and start showing your mean side.
