BOURBONNAIS, ILL. • In his first seven seasons in Chicago, quarterback Jay Cutler went through five offensive coordinators.
Adam Gase was No. 5 on that list of OCs _ a list that included Mike Martz in 2010 and '11. When Gase left for Miami to become the Dolphins' head coach after the 2015 season, the last thing Cutler wanted was to start over with a new playbook and a new system.
Not at age 33, and entering his 11th NFL season. This time around, Cutler was all in favor of promoting from within. And that's what happened, with coach John Fox bumping Dowell Loggains up from quarterbacks coach to coordinator.
