The Broncos were able to hide Plummer's weaknesses the past few years with a strong running game and a conservative attack. In big games that mattered, Plummer consistently fell short.

Denver could have made the playoffs with Plummer. They weren't likely to win in the playoffs. Moving to Cutler now gives the youngster a chance to get his bearings in the last five regular season games. It's a move that had to be made. Plummer's not the QB of the future any more. He's a failed experiment. Cutler's the QB of the future.
