Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
As PFT's Michael David Smith suggests, there’s a very good chance that the 30-year-old Cutler will remain with the Bears for the rest of his career. Although there was some talk that Cutler could end up leaving in free agency, he and new HC Marc Trestman appeared to mesh this season, and Trestman never wavered on his belief that Cutler is the right man to run his offense even as backup Josh McCown put up better statistics when he filled in after Cutler got hurt. In announcing the new contract, GM Phil Emery called Cutler “a demonstrated winner” and said 2013 was his best season because of his “leadership, his improvement, his display of toughness.”
