Quarterback Jay Cutler has played six games as a Bear against the Green Bay Packers. He has seen how the Packers get physical with Bears receivers, jamming them and matching up in man-to-man coverage to let more defenders attack the quarterback.
If the Packers want to try that against this current group of Bears receivers?
?Good luck,? Cutler said.
?We invite press coverage. We invite man.?
The point of press coverage is not simply to bully wide receivers. It?s to knock them off rhythm and in the process disrupt the timing of the quarterback.
That has worked against Cutler. He has beaten the Packers just once in those six games, that being the only Green Bay game in which he has managed a passer rating higher than 79. Only once has he completed more than 59 percent of his passes.
But there is a huge difference between 5-foot-11, 190-pound Devin Hester or 6-foot, 185-pound Johnny Knox, and 6-foot-3, 217-pound Alshon Jeffery or Brandon Marshall.
?It?s all about matchups,? Marshall said. ?I?m 6-5, 230 pounds and there?s not too many DB?s walking around that big.
?If they want to get physical, I do welcome that.?
