Cutler sticks to his gun on Elway quote, maintains he has stronger arm

Jay Cutler has been a busy man lately, his omnipresence approaching that of some political ads.

The Broncos quarterback, coming off his September award as the NFL's offensive player of the month, since has appeared on an ESPN pregame segment about his diabetes battle and was the subject of a lengthy Pardon The Interruption segment.

He was called the league's top quarterback after his hot start in a USA Today article. He soon will be the subject of columns by prominent writers Peter King of Sports Illustrated and Rick Reilly of ESPN, The Magazine.

He sat down with Marshall Faulk for NFL Network and will appear on The Best Damn Sports Show Period today.

But all those words in all those interviews combined didn't have the eye-popping quality of a story appearing in the current Sporting News in which Cutler is asked point-blank about his arm strength compared with Broncos measuring stick John Elway.

Cutler didn't hem or haw or try to escape like he's under pressure on a typical Sunday. He took the inquiry head on and shot back he had a "stronger arm than John, hands down," and he'd "bet on it against anybody's in the league."

Cool to see Cutler with this much confidence and swagger. If he is willing to make statements as bold as that, then that gives me more confidence in him down the line for sure. Cutler will be a top QB for many years to come.

well, its not like he just came out and said it. The reporter asked him if he thought he had a stronger arm than Elway. What's he supposed to say? No?

Lots of people have had strong arms. Akili Smith had a really strong arm. Kyle Boller could throw it out of the stadium. Who cares? Other than Woody Paige I mean...
