Bears fans, you have a new quarterback. This afternoon the Denver Broncos confirmed that they've traded embattled and bitter quarterback Jay Cutler to the Chicago Bears, according to ESPN.
The Sun-Times is reporting the Bears gave up their No. 1 and No. 3 pick in the 2009 draft, their No. 1 2010 draft pick, as well as Capt. Neck Beard himself, Kyle Orton.
Cutler demanded a trade and stopped talking to the Broncos when he found out that new Denver coach Josh McDaniels tried to trade for then-Patriot (and now-Chief) QB Matt Cassel. Bitter cry baby? Misunderstood young star? Either way, he's the starter. Benjy will break it down for us tomorrow morning.
