Jay Cutler signs with Dolphins

Why did they not pursue Kapernick? Dolphins must be racists. Snowflakes melting everywhere over this news!
Kapernick deserves to be on an NFL roster. Can't blame Gase and the Dolphins for wanting a guy familiar with his system though.
He deserves a chance but honestly he just plain sucks. He's lost all his muscle mass and is really thin because he's changed his diet.
Kaperdick doesn't deserve jack squat. He is getting exactly what he deserves and thats nothing!
Kapernick, political views aside, is awful.... but that being said, some bad QB's have made a good living in the NFL.
NFL is a business and signing Cutler is a better business decision in the minds of the ones who write the checks. Maybe less of an athlete but not anywhere near the baggage and controversy that surrounds the Kapernick. I think the old saying or thought that there are ramifications for you actions holds true here. Don't think there is collusion amongst the NFL ownership but nobody wants the baggage or the possible impact of splintering their fan base that comes with him.
Could you please explain your logic behind this incredibly idiotic statement?
As a Phins fan, my first thought was to get Kap. But then I thought about it. Kap's public support of Castro and che guevara ruined any chance at signing in Miami. The Phins aren't playing that in the most Cuban influenced city in America. Kap's original cause isn't what cost him a shot in Miami. They signed Arian Foster and he kneeled every national anthem he was around for in a Miami uniform AND had teamates join him. What cost Kap a shot in Miami was being an idiot. Getting full of himself and getting off his original message (which is a righteous cause) and start supporting communist dictators was what cost him here. He went full retard.
Cutler's best year was under Gase. Matt Moore was guaranteed 6-10 and I like Matt. He got us to the playoffs last year. He's tough as nails and can play mop up. I think Cutler can lead Miami to a potential wildcard birth much like last year. I think there is a scenario where he does that and it actually opens up the argument of RT17 being expendable.
Serious answer, the Dolphins don't want a QB controversy. Use Cutler until Tannehill is back, and then let Cutler go back to broadcasting.
All us Bear fans be singing...
Of course, now we have Mark Sanchez, but even that will be an improvement.

One person participates in a non-violent protest. A second person states that the first person deserves to be in another country. The first person's actions are much more consistent with American values, in my humble opinion.
Not signing Kaepernick was a smart business decision for someone whose business relies on the largest Cuban exile population in this country for ticket sales
17 Kapernick and any person who supports his views! And that includes State Fans who support his views. I love Mississippi State, not our 17 shitastic liberal Che loving fans. So 17 all you Pisants!
Sooo.... is that how this freedom of speech works? I mean.... just stating my O pinion.

I agree Cutler is a better fit in Miami. If Ryan Fitzpatrick can make a roster, there is no reason Kap shouldn't be able to make one. Kap played decent last year on a horrible 49ers team.
As a bammer hater, I never forgave him for dropping that wide open halfback pass on the 10-yard line to put away the Gumps in Bryant Denny.
Based on what?
And guess what else you get with Kaepernick? His psycho ***** girlfriend.

Well, Mars hasn't invited me to join his legal team but, to answer your question, I would have to say yeah. Freedom to protest is as American as apple pie.
Well, I can't speak for all 17 shitastic liberal Che loving fans of Mississippi State, but I certainly have no problem with you expressing your opinion. Just as I have no problem with Kapernick expressing his.
Phins fan here. I don't mind the Cutler pickup. I think he can win 9-10 games with their schedule.
I think what most people miss in this Kap debate is that he has zero "rights" to do anything on a NFL field that the NFL doesn't want him to do.
If you need to make a stand about something, you do it on your time not when you are at the office. The NFL owes him nothing. His cause has nothing to do with the NFL and if they don't like him boycotting the National Anthem, they have every right to boycott him.
If I showed up to work in shorts because I felt like suits were a sign of oppression, then I'd be fired. I also wouldn't get a good reference from my bosses. I'm not sure why anyone thinks the NFL should be any different.

Bingo. Everyone says "he has freedom of speech!!!" Yes... yes he does. But the first amendment of the constitution was not written to allow you to keep your job while costing your employer customers due to open protesting.
Its pretty amazing how the first amendment is attempted to be interpreted by the younger generation. The first amendment does not allow you to call out your employer without reprocussions.
Cutler > Kap
Kap has the right to protest (he did) and fans have the right to not buy season tickets and merch (they would). NFL owners did not get where they are by being bad businessmen.
I will compare Kap's situation to the Dixie Chicks. These entertainers need to know who butters their bread.

Football is a business yes.... the entertainment business. If K was entertaining he would be in the league. He was not.... so.... he is not. As another mentioned the should have learned from the Dixie Chicks.
