At the 9:30 mark. Murph asking why Blaine doesn't throw deep. Chip replies with, "Did you watch the game or were you watching baseball?" Then the back and forth begins.

Yeah, it's not that he never has set his feet set well, but there are too many times when he doesn't do that. On rewatching the game one of the things I focused on was Gabbert's footwork on passes. There were a fair number of passes where he had his feet planted well and pointed the right way when he released the pass and on most of those the throw was generally pretty good, but almost every time he didn't do that his passes were poor. It seemed to me that when Gabbert was "hopping" while looking for a throw that first his back foot tends to come down and then followed by his front foot. I wonder if it would be better for him to try to bounce and land on both feet more at the same time. I'm not sure but it seemed like he was doing that staggered landing on his feet thing because it makes it easier to take off running when he thinks there are no open receivers and he needs to bail out.

He should opt for Xanax. Never understood how Ritalin made people calm down. It was like taking speed whenever I tried it

If you have ADD or ADHD, stimulants such as Ritalin and Adderall actually calm you down.

To many arm chair QB experts in this thread
But it was Blaine Gabbert where Cosell's good grades stopped.
"He missed a lot of throws and he still plays fast. And what happens when you play fast… I mean I forget when it happened in the game, it was the first quarter when he missed (Jeremy) Kerley on an over route and he did not have any pressure," Cosell said. "It was a well-designed play call, Kerley was wide open, and he rushes himself. He plays fast and therefore his feet are not set. And he misses a lot of throws because of that. Even on some of the completions, the ball placement is not what it should be. He's going to have to play better, I think, for this team to be better offensively. He was very, very erratic in this game
"Ultimately, what you're looking at is a quarterback that has some positive traits and always teases because he's got a live arm and he has light feet and moves well -- so he teases," Greg Cosell said on KNBR 680-AM on Wednesday morning.
"One thing that really stood out when I watched him (Blaine Gabbert) at Missouri, even though the sample size was small because of all the shotgun one-step drop stuff, was the small sample of throws in which there were bodies around him, he was very poor," Cosell told SFR on Gabbert. "That has translated to the NFL. You guys watch every game I'm sure as I do, and when the bodies are around him and the pocket starts collapsing and he's in the cauldron of fire... he can't play."

Why do they have such dicks on the media in the Bay Area? Out here you turn on the radio and a quarter of the lineup of the main sports talk radio station's hosts are former Cardinals players and thus very deferential to the team. The other shows will rip teams but they generally tend to be pretty low-key about it.

This. Its like when Kaepernick would throw a perfectly placed short throw and everyone would jump all over it and be like "SEE, SEE!!!!" There are plenty of times that Gabbert sets his feet well when he throws the football but there's also a lot of times where his feet are still moving as he's throwing and for him, that is when his accuracy, especially downfield, really goes south.
