In Week 6 of 2014 against Atlanta, Cutler delivered one of his best performances in a Bears uniform: 26-of-38 for 381 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions, setting what would stand as his highest single-game passing total during his time in Chicago. Facing third-and-long with the game tied at 13, he launched a deep ball down the sideline to Alshon Jeffery for a 74-yard gain that swung momentum back toward Chicago, leading to a 27-13 victory.

Jay Cutler finished his Bears career against Green Bay with a 2-11 record, including a playoff loss; his era was defined by the hope that his 2nd season would overwhelm Aaron Rodgers' 3rd season, but the Packers dominated the 2009-2016 period 14-3. Cutler's only notable win in the series after 2010 was a 17-13 Thanksgiving victory in 2015 when the Packers were retiring Favre's jersey, a game Cutler hadn't won since 2010. The Packers tied the series in 2016 with a 30-27 win, officially ending Cutler's era.

Moore said Cutler wasn't 'giving him pointers' when backup Hanie entered, and Rashied Davis distinguished between physical and mental toughness, questioning whether Cutler had the mental toughness needed to lead a team. Corey Wootton noted Cutler wasn't a vocal leader like Drew Brees or Tom Brady despite being paid as a franchise QB. Lance Briggs said Cutler built a persona of not caring, which became his character in the league. Olin Kreutz, who also suffered a Lisfranc injury that game, noted that when a QB's plant leg is compromised, it fundamentally affects performance.
