I understand that they want to protect their future QB by running the ball, but just like helicopter parenting, too much protection becomes harmful. You and others have already shown stats of distance to gain on many of his throws. It's maddening. Maybe we (some of us) are over reacting, I don't know. But like you, I'm scared that they are turning him into a complete game manager and reducing his skill set. Game managers don't seem to win Super Bowls anymore because of the rule changes and they hardly keep their teams at the top of their divisions year in and year out.G08 wrote:Ahh, another cynic.

Give me a Stafford (gun slinger) any day over a game manager and I'll deal with the INT's here and there!
EDIT> To everybody that wants to throw the Cutler saga into this post, I understand. Personally, I loved Cutler and he was the best Bears QB that probably most on this board have witnessed in a Bears uniform. Cutler unfortunately didn't have a high enough TD/INT ratio (which can be blamed partly on lack of weapons for many years). But that ship has sailed. Question now becomes, would you be happy if Trubisky was turned into a game manager in the mold of a John Fox QB?
