The most important thing is an OL. Then solid RBs who can pass protect and double as receivers. WRs next, but I'd put a TE right up their.

Cutler had it all in 2013, and not surprisingly, made few errors and had a Pro-Bowl season. Aside from 2013, he's gotten the living shit kicked out of him and, not surprisingly, made dumbass decisions. A few weeks ago, Rodgers lost 2 OL and, without receivers, played like he was completely lost and got pounded. Looked like less than mediocre. But he's not a dumbshit, and when he got his line back, he became a genius again. Aside from 2013, Cutler has never had the luxury of having a supporting cast and playing in the same system. And he's a dumbshit.

He's like Adrian Peterson. You know Peterson is going to fumble, so he's actually a liability in a close game. At least I know that. At least you can bench Peterson. The Cardinals are stuck with Palmer and his propensity to make errors.
