If Rex would get "pumped" up like Drew Brees - he might overcome
some of those shortcomings

Fumbles also became a huge bugaboo for Grossman in Chicago...
especially in the latter part of his time here.
Some of those obviously were caused by protection breakdowns but
I remember several plays where the ball came out of his hand and
there was no contact from a defender at all.

The fumbles that happened outside the pocket weren't Kreutz'
fault. Or were you joking?

Yeah - but Kreutz' big butt caused a few of those...

I don't think it's the size of Olin's azz so much as how low it
is to the ground. At 6-feet tall (if even), by the time he gets
into his stance his butt's literally about a foot off the
ground. I'm surprised Cutler hasn't pulled a hammy getting down
that far.

Some were Kreutz's fault and there were definitely some WTF
fumbles. If the D got to him, you always held your breath to see
if the ball was out. I don't think his hands were big enough to
hang on to the thing with any contact. Definitely a lot more
Bad Rex at the end.

From all I've heard, Carimi will bring every bit as much "nasty"
as Kreutz does/did... with a he-ll of a lot more size to back
it up.

I don't think Rex's arm strength was ever an issue.
