I posed a question to Adam Hoge last night I believe or earlier this morning and he answered it in his "10 things" column he does a couple times a week. The question was what happened to all the back shoulder stop throws we used to see so often last year?
His answer, and what Trestman/Kromer/Cutler, have been saying is that teams are playing a lot more zone against us trying to force us move the ball down the field more methodically. We've proven not able to do that. Some of that has been play calling. Some of that has been TO's by Cutler, Forte, Marshall, and Rosario.
I think the team is still putting up yards but we haven't been able to bridge the gap between scoring by getting chunk plays and scoring by checking it down, taking what the defenses are giving us, and being able to capitalize when we do get a chance to throw it downfield.
