Related: About this forumJay Cutler: ‘I’ll Be The First Person To Admit We Need A New Punter’
http://www.theonion.com/articles/jay-cutler-ill-be-the-first-person-to-admit-we-nee,37422/Following the teams blowout 55-14 loss to the Green Bay Packers Sunday night, Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler told reporters Tuesday that he would be the first person to admit the team is in dire need of a new punter. Its certainly not an easy thing to say, but at the end of the day, someone has to step up and accept that mistakes were made by our punter, Pat ODonnell, said Cutler, who pointed to ODonnells blocked punt in the third quarter as playing a major role in the teams unraveling and conceded that blame for the teams loss rested squarely on the rookie punter. Going forward, there will have to be some serious adjustments made to our punt unitwhen individual players arent doing their part out there, were going to fall short as a team. Pat didnt play well, and he needs to accept responsibility for that. Cutler went on to acknowledge that Bears long snapper Jeremy Cain will also need to step up his performance significantly before next weeks game against the Vikings if the team is to have any chance of turning its season around.

And Cutler did say on TV and on his radio show that he knows he is playing poorly.
