Some tight spirals, some wobblers. Pay particular attention to
the passes at the 0:59, 1:22, 1:44, 2:49, 4:34, 4:39, and 4:47
marks. Actually, skip that last one, if you want to avoid
reliving past nightmares.
And remember - this is a highlights video.

Definitely agree on Peyton Manning's wobblers from that last
game - but credit his receivers for staying so focused to haul
those things in for TDs...
Even though they weren't nice tight spirals - they were thrown
in spots where the defender had no chance at them either

If I'm Emery, the first thing I do after the new HC has moved
into Halas Hall is I sit down with him and we watch that entire
San Francisco MNF debacle from beginning to end. Then when it's
done I ask him point-blank what he's gonna do to make sure
nothing like that EVER happens again.

It might be nice if Emery could ask that question BEFORE hiring
our next HC. ;)

Yeah I thought of that... but I don't think Emery's gonna get
4+ hours with most of these candidates. At least not in the
first round.

That last game? Hell those are career highlights. He has
thrown wobblers forever.
Yet he is never criticized for his lack of fundamentals of the
perfect spiral pass.

smelled funny.

I may have McCoy and Ariens pegged completely wrong but the
feeling I get is with McCoy, we wouldn't have to do quite as
much personnel work on the front end as we may have to do with
Ariens. It kind of seems like Ariens has carried the same
philosophy with him wherever he's gone and if we already his
kind of players in place then that's not a big deal but it
doesn't seem like he may be quite as adapatable as McCoy has
proven to be.
Either of those guys are obviously going to require much better
players on the OL to get anything done, but how each of them
would define our needs in terms of the TE, WR and possibly even
RB positions might vary considerably.

Irregardless of who the new HC is, I think all current Bears
players would be well advised to spend this offseason training
like they've never trained before.
Emery cut his teeth on strength and conditioning and don't think
for a moment that isn't a key piece in the new culture he's
establishing. I'm sure that just like the rest of us he noticed
the ridiculous amount of injuries, the many one-on-one battles
lost in the trenches and the inability for either the offense or
the defense to finish games strong. Camp Lovie is gone and I
have a feeling that for the first time in a long time our
players will be doing real work once the first training camp of
the new regime opens for business.
It would also be good if Cutler, Marshall, Jeffery and some of
the other WRs spent a LOT of time together these next few months
playing throw-and-catch and just working on their general
chemistry. This has been standard operating procedure for guys
like Manning, Brees and Brady for years. I know the rules are
pretty strict about what can and can't be done in that regard
but the good teams find ways to skirt those restrictions. I
don't know if the new HC will require something like that (or if
he's even allowed to )... but if Cutler and Marshall are
emerging as the leaders people want them to be, they'll make it
happen somehow.

Speaking of back-ups and Cutler's age, now is the time I think
to look at a younger back-up to groom. I have always been
iritated by the throwawy 6th round choice of a QB that has no
chance to make the roster while you have a QB in their prime.
I'd say, barring significant injury Cutler is on the declining
side of his prime. Maybe still near the top, but just starting
to past that mid-point.
I watched the Florida/ Louisville game. Was pretty impressed
with Bridgewater at qB for Louisville. Nice poise, size, touch,
played in cold weather and is not one of those read option QBs.
Not sure where he would be picked...
Crud! NVM, he is only a sophmore...

Sometimes lower round QB draftees turn out to be good QBs.
