Quarterback Brian Hoyer gives Chicago Bears needed momentum

OK, but I won't and not one Chicago media guy would come out and say Hoyer gives the Bears a better chance to win than Cutler either.  Not a single one.  And what I bold faced is pretty much nonsense.  It's weak, inaccurate, and an excuse not fact.

Hoyer has been up against some soft coverage defenses with little in the way of a pass rush and he's taken what they give him between the 20s which is where most of his yardage is coming from but he lacks any big play ability all all and he needed it on that last play.  His big plays have mostly come from Jordan Howard who never played much in the first two games.  Cutler's big plays were long passes to AJ and with decent protection there could have been more.  No one defends him well at all.

Hoyer actually takes AJ's ability to dominate away because he can't make those jump ball and back shoulder throws and when Cutler has protection he spreads the ball around as well.  AJ may get more targets if Cutler is at QB but then he makes them payoff doesn't he?  So why wouldn't any good QB go to his #1 WR with the game on the line and also getting single coverage?  Who did Hoyer go to?

He threw to Meredith and into solid coverage because it was the only throw he could make.  He doesn't have the arm to make that throw to Jeffery anyway or at least not without a rainbow.  That why's the Safety never slid over to pick him up.  AJ was out of his range or if Hoyer throws it up for grabs he still has time to get over before the ball comes down and contest it. 

Anything over 15-20 yards and Hoyer struggles to make that throw. Which is why he targeted White and Meredith more than AJ.  Hoyer is a decent back up but with as much offense as he's generated two weeks in a row he can only put an average of 20 points on the board from it.  What does that tell you.  How many games can we win putting up just 20 points a game and in both of his starts we held an edge in TOP and still couldn't sustain enough TD drives.

If you want that #2 overall pick we actually would be better off with Hoyer at QB.  He may take less risks and that may be more appealing to Fox but we won't beat good teams that way.  Hell, we couldn't beat one nearly as bad as we are today and the only reason we beat Detroit was a superb game by our defense and a very bad one by Stafford.  Today he threw for 3 tds without a pick and they bear Philly.  If he has the game last week we're 0-5 right now.

Hoyer is about as good a #2 as you'll find but IMHO Cutler is still a far better starter.
