Broncos Dummy Up On Cutler Impasse

The sheer absurdity of Jay Cutler's "Wounded Feelings Strike '09", coupled with the inane sensationalism delivered to the proceedings by we in the media ("McJaygate"?) has led to a predictable development.

Broncos players have told the media to sit and spin.

According to Mike Klis of the Denver Post, Bronco players participating in offseason workouts aren't speaking to the media because they're sick of talking about Cutler's situation.

Meanwhile, you have to figure whatever support Cutler had in the locker room is dissipating quickly. He's escalated this controversy into a full-blown event from which he's been able to run away and hide while his teammates get grilled about it. To say nothing of the fact that the guy who occupies the most pivotal position on the field is blowing off workouts as a new system is installed, thereby undercutting the process and the team's chances for success in 2009.
