Now I know Gase only was with Cutler for one season, but Forte was with Cutler from 09-16. Another wrinkle in this belly-busting offense is pass catching from the backfield and the potential we have with our talent. Miami was awful last year and in prior seasons with pass catching from backs. NE does it all the time, and is a key-chain-moving play. It gets you to 3rd and short, it opens up many possibilities. Forte had total yards from scrimmage since 09 of: 2009 1400 2010 1600 2011 1500 2012 1400 2013 1900 Cutler was hurt 2014 1800 Cutler played 15 games 2015 1200 13 games 2016 1000 Cutler gone I averaged for each year. Not using exact numbers. The year Forte had 1800 yards in 2014, Cutler was 3800/28/18. That's a decent season, knowing that Gase will cut down the picks and the Bears defense that season was very bad. Miami's talent this year is so much better than Chicago's that year, despite having Jeffrey, Forte and Marshall
Bennett also had 90 catches. Man we can finally be able to use backs and TE's, like the Pats https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/chi/2014_roster.htm
