Jay Cutler broken thumb-

The Bears confirmed that Jay Cutler has a fracture on his right(throwing hand) thumb.  Original reports had him out 6-8 weeks, but the Bears are now saying that the outlook is uncertain.  Surgery apparently is an option. 

 

Tough break for our rivals.  I really hate to see any important player go down to injury.  I would rather see the Packers beat anyone at full strength than see them have any excuses. 

 

Caleb Hanie, whom you will remember for the NFC Championship touchdown pass to BJ Raji now takes the reigns.  I had thought the Bears were a lock for the playoffs until this, now I'm not so sure..

 

Thoughts?
