Receivers adjusting to Cutler's heat
Bears wide receivers and tight ends have all mentioned that Jay Cutler’s fastball has a lot more zip on it than what they’ve been accustomed to, but none of them believe it will be a difficult adjustment.
They may, however, spend more time catching “passes” out of the Jugs machine to prepare them for Cutler’s bullets.
“I think they'll get out here and get in on it, no question about it,” offensive coordinator Ron Turner said, “and they'll turn it up a couple notches, too, if they're smart.”
Now that Turner finally has a franchise quarterback directing his West Coast offense, there may be more pressure on him to design a high-powered attack, but that’s OK with him.
“I don't know if there is (more pressure), but if there is I'll take it,” Turner said. “I'll take a player like this anytime. I've been around some really good quarterbacks, and the last couple we've had I think were really good players, but I've never been around an arm like this.”
