I don't have much to write at this point, but was overjoyed to hear that I have an audience of one.
I will continue to spam the other philistines in an effort to force them to click the links, but you are off the hook.
Here is insight, from Jim Miller: Miller was an on/off starting quarterback (inc. for the Stoolers) and is now an NFL Radio analyst and host.
He likes both Quinn and Anderson, but finds one issue with Quinn: When he throws deep balls, his right foot comes off the ground, like a pitcher throwing a fastball. That motion is fine for the fixed distance and the straight line, but for a QB the back foot needs to stay planted at least until the release.
Miller himself had this mechanical flaw coming out of college, and had to "unlearn" it before he became much more accurate. The QB throws the ball all over the place, and when you throw off one foot, your body is rotating and there are many, many variables which can throw accuracy off. With both feet planted, the base is solid and so is the throw. Pretty simple, really.
...Plus that foot off the ground stuff looks kind of...I dunno--sissified?
Anyway we HOPE here that the new coaching staff is more competant, and will correct this one-and-only Quinn flaw (which Miller says is not like correcting a motion and is easy--keeping a foot down is not a major adjustment that will throw him off).
Also Miller thinks it's funny that people question his arm-strength, and says he has a good arm. He did sometimes lack accuracy deep, and Miller asserts that that back foot off the ground is the reason.
Well that's it. Can't wait for training camp. Okbye.
