He was a much better QB than most new head coaches get, and looked like a franchise QB at age 26 when McDaniels got him. The Bears screwed him over by constantly changing his offenses, which completely destroyed his development.

McDaniels and Cutler never worked together.
Cutler was traded to the Bears prior to the start of the 2009 season, which was McDaniels’ first in Denver.
McDaniels’ problems came as a talent evaluator as he tried to be czar of the organization like Belichick is in New England. With Ballard in place in Indy, clearly this wouldn’t be the case.
