I think the complaints have more to do with the fact that he still stood there in the cold for two hours, without crutches, and all the weight on that knee. It seems more of the complaints have more with the fact that if his knee was bad enough to keep him out of the game, it should have been too bad for him to keep standing on it.
the people with those complaints have no working knowledge of ACL/MCL injuries then, unless they'd compare standing as equivalent to running/cutting/performing in the NFL. a rational person could argue that standing (while not necessarily intelligent) was a sign of toughness and support for his team.
once again, I'm not a blind Cutler supporter, but the criticism of yesterday was simply off base.
