Agreed. There is absolutely no way Scott Tolzien makes the touchdown throw to Davante Adams (which was really good and isn't being discussed) and he does not have the arm to make the hail-mary pass either. We can also acknowledge Tolzien does not have the mobility of Aaron Rodgers and would not have scored on that 17 yard quarterback run.

See:
Tolzein wouldn’t have thrown the INT to JJ, that would have been a 15 yard completion.
On 3rd and 1 he would not have run at 13:31-1st Q w/ 9 men in box!
The scripted short easy pass to Starks would have been on target and caught at 13:37 in 1st Q for a first down.
Tolzein wouldn’t be thinking I’m so special I can stat-whore/gunslinging bullshit; he’d be focused on just executing the O. On 3rd 6 at Det 14 2nd Q 13:03, Tolzein would have hit WIIIIIIDE Open Cobb in the right flat on the scripted play instead of taking a sack. Cobb probably would have got the 1st; if not, Mason’s kick would have been good if he was 10 yards closer.
Next drive effed up too: 3rd 7 2nd Q 10:33, YOU guys need to look at this play!!! Cobb in left slot runs a perfect Dig at 8 yards, OL opens up a massive throwing lane and AR is looking right at Cobb, who is again WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDE open, no one within 7 yards. Inexplicably AR turns his head and looks deep right for a biggy stat-whore play and gets effing SACKED. Tolzein would have thrown for that first down. And on and on and on, until MM turned off the game plan. In 1st half all but 2nd drive ended 100% due to AR’s inaccuracy and outright stupidity [the Int Ground call was BS and Abby ran a deep dig 1-2 yards short of marker and AR threw a perfect strike, there is no excuse for that route].
Again so many plays executed flawlessly by 10 of 11 on the O; and one colossal prima-donna fuk-up...
The Packers QB v Lions was Jay Cutler; looks like a strong armed Tom Brady for about 1-1.5 quarters/game. Plays like a moron for the rest! With Cutler the bears can win any one game; but it is impossible to win 2-3 in a row in POs against good teams...IMPOSSIBLE!
You guys are praising Jay Cutler, you have been de-balled by your own words. You can only rehab this de-gonadding by discussing FOOTBALL! I have no idea what you guys are watching or how you’re processing it.
