Love is dead. You heard it here first, or maybe a few days ago when the boys’ group chat lit up with the news that Jay Cutler and Kristin Cavallari are divorcing after six years of marriage and three years of occasionally meme-worthy TV.
So what should come next for the newly single Cutler? Should he return to the broadcast booth? Or endorse his favorite brand of smokes? The people have a different idea: Make Jay Cutler the next Bachelor. Our panel of experts weighs in on whether that’s such a good idea:
Pro: Make the Cut with Jay Cut
- Years of living in Chicago should have primed Cutler for the institutional racism of The Bachelor
- He’s already used to people talking shit about him behind his back
- Excelled at the fence jumping portion of the NFL combine
- Cutty’s charisma, unlike his QB play, is unbeatable
- It should be easy for ABC’s producers to cut together Cutler’s career highlights for the episode 1 intro
- He could easily be replaced by a different lead without the show missing a beat
- We know all of his bad political views in advance
- He’s not afraid to get hurt
- Is mediocre white guy
Con: Un-Bearable
- America’s not ready to see his butt again
- There’s just no telling what toll that much champagne would take on his diabetes
- Nobody will be surprised when he makes a pick
- That man cannot go that long without eating
- If we’ve developed a coronavirus vaccine by the time filming starts for season 25, we can’t guarantee that he’ll get it.
- Who knows if he’ll make it through the season
- Gunslinger mentality ill-adapted to the modern RPO-style offense pioneered by Colton
- Might force the nation into some weird conversations about goats
- He’s pretty fat now
