With Jay Cutler out for at least a month (torn groin, ouch) Chicago had to head to the bargain bin for a new game manager; They found their solution in QB Alex Smith, who had been reasonably steady in relief of QB Tom Brady for Bristol this year. They pay a big price in mercurial WR Danny Amendola- no one can deny the talent or setup, but his litany of health woes have made him a difficult asset to gauge. This was a low risk, high reward play for Bristol, while Chicago had several options that might have given similar output for cheap- but da Bears got a QB they are comfortable with while moving from a position of strength. Chicago originally acquired Amendola from Atlanta on August 26th with LB Clay Matthews (Out - Injury) and S William Moore for TE Tony Gonzalez, LB Luke Kuechly, WR Percy Harvin, and S Dashon Goldson.
