Hamilton Impressed by Cutler

If there is one person who has gotten a good idea of what it will be like to work with new quarterback Jay Cutler, it is the Bears’ quarterback coach Pep Hamilton. He recently sat down with Bears staff writer Larry Mayer and gave his opinion on the new quarterback. Not surprisingly, working with the Pro Bowl quarterback has left Hamilton impressed.

He said, “As a player, he’s a gym rat. He loves football, and he’s a tremendous competitor with an extremely talented arm and surprising athleticism and mobility. I’m still getting to know him as a person, but it seems like his life revolves around football and being the quarterback of the Chicago Bears. He has to be the quarterback and the leader of the franchise both on and off the field, inside and outside Halas Hall. When he leaves the building, he’s still the quarterback of the Bears, and he seems to have taken on that responsibility and he’s handling it well from what I gather.”

If Jay Cutler can perform well this season, he will have the entire city of Chicago on his side. The Bears haven’t had a franchise quarterback in decades. See him perform live by getting Chicago Bears tickets from StubHub.
