That's exactly why went on their boards since I don't watch Bears' games. Kreutz apparently had some injury two seasons ago or an older injury was lingering with him, but a lot of people said he could get up from the crouch because of it, and therefore spent most his time on his belly or on top of the QB. Last season that wasn't bothering him anymore and he was able get up from the crouch, but still he was pushed down more often than not. And that seemed to have been the biggest beef they had with him - him spending too much time either on his back or belly instead of protecting Cutler.

But like the argument that was brought up here as well, some claimed that the O-Line overall was bad, which wasn't Kreutz's fault even though he did not perform individually as well as they would've hoped him to. A lot of the blame was also placed on the O-Line couch and the D-Coordinator.

Anyway, all of this is just picked up from their boards, so I can't say if these statements and evaluations are in fact correct.
