Jay Cutler does not expect apology from Urlacher

The Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler’s bearing criticism from teammate just explains well why Cutler jersey is still among the top 10 best selling player jerseys. Instead of getting angry, or at least unhappy, the quarterback said receiver Brian Urlacher did not need to apologize for critical remarks on the quarterback.


Urlacher questioned the Bears' direction while wondering why they went from emphasizing the run to the pass during an interview last weekend. And such questioning remarks caused a lot to guess he might be unhappy with Cutler’s existence in Chicago.

While bringing the Pro Bowl quarterback from the Denver Broncos gave the Bears quite a lot of hopes in avoiding missing the playoffs for the third year, Cutler has not performed as they expected. The quarterback now leads the NFL with 20 interceptions and the Bears have lost four straight games and six of the last seven games, during which Cutler threw totally 15 interceptions.

Cutler knows he should be blamed for the losses and interceptions, so he understands Urlacher’s frustration with the team’s performance, and said there is no need for the linebacker to apologize.

"You can't take anything personal in this game, especially whenever we're losing," Cutler said. "I'm going to get a lot of blame. I'm aware of that. A lot of it should come my way. I'm understanding of that. I know Brian's frustrated. I'm frustrated. There's not much we can do."

49ers ended loss streak by beating Bears 10-6

The San Francisco 49ers Coach Mike Singletary proved what he said before the game by beating the team he played for as a player. The 49ers beat the Chicago Bears 10-6 on Thursday night.


Bears starting quarterback Jay Cutler threw a career-high five interceptions in the game and his last one came in the end zone on the game’s final play, while running back in No. 21 49ers jersey, Frank Gore ran for 104 yards and a touchdown, and quarterback Alex Smith won the first of his eight starts since Week 2 in 2007.

It was wide receiver Michael Crabtree who picked off Cutler’s final attempt in the end zone as time expired, sealing 49ers’ first win since Oct. 4 and ending a three-game losing streak.

Cutler apologized in his postgame news conference, not wearing his Bears jersey, for his bad performance in the game. It was the second time he threw four or more interceptions this season and he has had an NFL-worst record of throwing 17 interceptions totally.
