It actually wouldn't surprise me if his extension is announced completely out of the blue on some random day in the next couple of months. Just because we're not hearing much doesn't mean there isn't much going on...

Totally agree with all of this.
Ultimately, this is why you trade for a guy like Alex Smith instead of a guy like Jay Cutler...
