Okay on the first part those are mechanical things that can be fixed, he does tend to bird dog recievers a bit but he usually get it's to them. Oh and locking onto recievers and not going through progressions are the same thing. Bad foot work? What are you watching? Just like any QB with the blitz in their face he gets happy feet, I think everyone is forgetting this is his first full year as a starter. So he knows the offense but isn't as used to game speed as others. But funny, for being so bad he sure played a much better game than the heralded Drew Brees. Hmmm...and if you dispute that then you weren't watching the game you are just reading press clippings.

And I don't know how you can say Brown and Harris aren't on the same level as Urlacher. I am a huge Urlacher fan and I even have said he is the most gifted athlete in the league. But he doesn't shed blockers that well and he somteimes will wait for the hit rather than deliver it each play. Just because he plays the recognition position doesn't mean he is the best. It is debatable if he is the best LB on the team, much less best defensive player on the team. Brown is the best player in the secondary and Harris is our best DL, so there losses are just as much of a blow as if we lost Urlacher.
