Chicago Bears: 2017 Quarterbacks That Fit Dowell Loggains

Often the best thing to do is find one who is talented but also fits the system. It rarely works when a team tries to force a player without the required skills into a scheme he’s just not built for. What have the Bears learned about Loggains? He likes quarterbacks who can stand and deliver accurate balls from the pocket. They must be able to read the defense, make adjustments and stay on time. Scrambling isn’t a necessity. Go through the progressions and find the open man.

In other words Loggains is a coordinator built for the QB classic. A Peyton Manning or Tom Brady archetype. That is what Brian Hoyer was. That is what Matt Barkley is. They’re not about individual physical gifts. They’re about being cerebral and efficient.

Note how Barkley going through every motion. He gives his signal, takes the snap, looks off the safety to the left and then fires it deep to Cameron Meredith the moment he hits his back step. That is precision timing, accuracy and execution.

Or here with Hoyer. Note how his first read is covered to the right. Instead of immediately looking to run, he shuffles his feet left to buy time. All the while he keeps scanning, finds an open Jordan Howard who takes care of the rest for a touchdown. This is what the Bears are looking for in a Loggains offense. It’s just a matter of finding somebody more talented to run it.
