Social media detectives think that former Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler has somehow jinxed his former NFL team amid their eight-game losing streak.
The Bears looked like playoff contenders early in the season, winning four of their first six games. But Jay Cutler’s old team has imploded with eight straight defeats, starting with Jayden Daniels’ “Madhouse in Maryland” Hail Mary game-winning touchdown back in Week 8.
As noted by X/Twitter user @jack_bfr, the Bears haven’t won a game since Cutler was arrested for driving under the influence on Oct. 17 in Tennessee. 10 days after his arrest, the Bears’ losing skid began against Washington.
Social media had all sorts of reactions to this viral post on Jay Cutler and the Bears:

“Bears still blaming Jay Cutler for their struggles,” quipped a user.
“I don’t think it’s a coincidence,” a fan wrote.
“@JoeBiden has one more pardon in him. Free Cutler so the #Bears can get back to ruining a potentially high draft pick,” stated another.
Jay Cutler Holds Most Bears’ Major Passing Records
Cutler is one of the most polarizing athletes in Chicago history, but he’s also responsible for their last playoff win (in the 2010 season). Additionally, he holds every significant franchise passing record, including yards (23,443) and completions (2,020).
