It is appearant over the past 4 games that Glennon takes way too long to go thru his progressions. Trubisky did show in limited preseason that he was decent at progressions.

I don't see how they roll Glennon out again.

It's time. I understand the wait but it's time.

Green Bay brought 6 guys at Glennon on that play.

nah a designed 5 man rush.. a delayed freelance 6 once his flat responsability wasn't needed... sims stayed in and howard broke inside and he handed that responsibility off to da other lb.. ez ez mang.. come on people... fooseball..

Or if Glennon throws it over the safety, they don't plug up the middle like they did all game. Even incomplete is fine there. Everyone knows we run a lot. Playaction is fine without a setup for this team.

Good point, even an attempt at a deep ball could help the underneath game.

actually, in reality, everyone is accounted for. glennon was waiting for the play to develop deep across the field like he should have. he then sensed pressure and tried to probably throw a low outside grounder to miller but it was too late. Sims was beat at the snap.. no time

4.2 seconds is more time than you should need for 2 pass plays.

YOU PEOPLE are seeing the wrong thing again.

call it 7.2 secs and he still didnt have enough time. the PLAY hadnt even developed yet, the clear out still needed more time. that is the DESIGN of the play. who designed that play? who called that play? why even call that play in that situation?

dowell is a pros pro remember. jay even spoke highly and vouched for him. ya better get mitch someone else or it may get ugly.. well unless the triscuit carries the loggains .

shit be deep in chicago mane.

Man it sure looks like on that play that if Bellamy runs a post-corner route (break hard left then break right towards end-zone) it's touchdown.

it was for wright coming across the middle. there wasnt a clear out.. the play hadnt developed fully. if he chucks it deep its an int. if he chucked it short the first look at miller its an int.. best play would have been to fall to the ground. or block clay and hit wright when bb clears that cb/s from the area

futhermore, bb was option 2 deep.. if s/cb goes with wright you hit bb on the backside post.. that play took way too long to develop.. come on you people

The throw to TE is only a "pick" if Glennon throws inside or behind Miller. A leading throw as every crossing route is intended to create gives Miller the same chance as an out route as the defender is in trail position.

The second you realize there is a pass rush with potential unblocked rushers you absolutely give up on any "developing" plays and immediately find your hot route or dump off. Edit: unless you can rollout and extend like Rodgers and Mitch do... which Glennon clearly can not.

We shall see what Trubisky looks like in Dowell's offense. And I can almost guarantee that all of the WR's will look better.

You don't have to go too far to see why the Bears lost this game. In fact, you can look at Mike Glennon's very first snap to witness the beginning of the end.

The Bears line up in a simple run formation with WR Bellamy and TE Miller on the top of the screen, along with WR Wright on the bottom of the screen. TE Dion Sims is lined up next to Massie as the 6th lineman in protection.

As the ball is snapped, Glennon fakes the handoff to Jordan Howard, signaling a play action pass. Bellamy runs straight upfield along the left hash marks while Wright is running up the field along the right hash marks. The TE Miller is running to the flat on the left of the screen, while TE Dion Sims is taking on trying to block Clay Mathews off the edge. There is really not much for Glennon to diagnose here. He either throws deep down the middle of the field for Bellamy/Wright or to Miller in the flat. It looks as though his first read is to look downfield for the big play, hoping someone bit on the play action.

Unfortunately, both Bellamy and Wright are covered with the safety over the top of them. So Glennon goes to his other read, his outlet TE Miller. Miller is open with a relatively huge cushion and there is absolutely no pressure around Glennon to disrupt him.

Even though there is no pressure in Glennon's face, he becomes indecisive. For some reason he does not pull the trigger to his TE Miller and instead looks upfield again to Bellamy/Wright. This was a critical error by Glennon, as they are still covered and the rush is getting closer. On top of that, Glennon is standing in the exact same spot as he was at the very beginning of his drop back, making him a sitting duck for the pass rush.

Now in a state of panic, Glennon turns back to his TE Miller. At this point, Glennon has done more than enough damage and should just take the sack. But he foolishly tries to get the pass off to Miller. Honestly, if Clay doesn't hit Glennon and he gets that throw off in this situation, it's probably a pick 6. But he's drilled at the very beginning of his throw motion...game over.

Pre snap God Mike Glennon should have identified the Sims/Mathews matchup before the ball was snapped and known that he didn't have 17 seconds to survey the field. Even still, he only had basically two reads to look through, and the line gave him more than enough time on this play. Also, Glennon hangs Sims out to dry by standing in the same exact spot for the entirety of the play, giving Mathews an easy target.

Holy shit was I mad when the play happened because he had all day to get rid of the ball. When you see it broken down like this though.... it's just fucking pathetic.

I will go back further, his first pass of preseason game 1. That read, that throw, his composure, I could tell it was all too big for him. He hasn't proved me wrong.

Hey Aussie, you still think this would have been an INT?

T4goFSv.jpg

much better angle..

with this it only confirms wright/bb are primary/secondary... this shows glennon clearing out dix with the look.. and by looking left he didnt see clay beating sims.. thus after the clear of dix he went back to the middle to see what was going on.. saw the middle still clogged... felt clay and tried to go back to miller as his 3rd read.. but it was too late.. 4th read was howard.. 5th would be sims if he released..

once again bad design/play for the situation... cause clearly there wasnt enough time for that play to develop, even at 9.9 secs

I'll download the play when I get on a computer, but Glennon actually decides to go deep, begins his throwing motion, and then abruptly changes his mind again and resets. Then he looks back at Miller, begins his throwing motion again, and is leveled by Clay. Glennon's hesitation and indecisiveness is directly what caused that fumble.

So you don't think he has any of the blame here? Missed all his reads, failed to notice protection breaking down on his front side, failed to dump it off, tries to throw ball as front side rusher hits him. He is constantly making the wrong decision.
