Is it because hobbits can't throw slant routes?
Combination of not having full faith in Trubs and practice squad WRs as your starting WRs.
Gentry seems like he would do well running slant type routes.

You need a reliable receiver to get off jams, catch, and hold balls when potentially lit up by Lbers... and to have a good timing set with a QB or they can be risky to ints.
They're not a safe throw for sure

The QB is irrelevant if you have 4th string WRs only and offer no trust of skill to grab in traffic.What about checking to quick slants when the defense is clearly playing off-coverage.... I wouldn't say the throw is any more dangerous there than some of the intermediate outside-breaking routes we've seen Trubisky throw.
Plus let's be honest.... if slants are too dangerous for Trubs, dude isn't worth having.
If his WRs are gonna get jammed and not be open, he needs to figure it out and check out or find another place to put the ball.
I would prefer to see if he can do it now, when things are toughest on him.
If Trubs can handle the worst situations.... that is more valuable to know at this juncture IMO.

You seem to put it as if it's on the QB, it's on the lack of talent wrs you can't trust to be in time with it and fight off the players to catch and not risk it bouncing right to a int.
Even White was big so you could try with him, even though he dropped the slants Glennon threw him.
