In this year's NFC Divisional Playoff clash, the reigning Super Bowl champs (albeit without starting QB Sam Waterhouse) faced off against the Chicago Bears. With backup QB Cam Newton also rated at 90+ OVR, Chicago knew they'd still have to bring their A-game facing the backup QB. And they did. Chicago's defense blitzed early and often, stifling the Panthers' running attack and forcing Cam to consistently make accurate reads and deep throws, which was not done.
Cutler finished with 2 INTs and 2 TDs, but Chicago's offense will need to step it up if they are to survive the NFC Championship game.
