I've always wondered just what do QBs do in the offseason

I remember Rodgers and Peyton their rookie yrs and the drastic improvement in arm strength and accuracy as time went on. I wonder what Luck will work on

What exactly did they do to improve arm strength?

Goat holding.  Does wonders for arm strength development.

Well, a certain CB of ours (Powers) spends his dayon Twitter arguing with people. :facepalm:

As far as Andrew Luck, I think he'll workout with the WR's. Reggie already said when he can he'll practice with him. Hopefully he spends time in the film room & weight room as well. I believe he'll have himself a good off-season

Pagano said that Luck was watching tape this morning.. I'd say he takes a few weeks off and works harder than he ever has this offseason. The rooks got that bad taste in their mouth in Baltimore. Can't wait to see how Luck and the rest come back next year

Luck would not surprise me if he did something like Mark Sanchez does with the "Jets West Camp" each offseason. Kind of run a sort of camp to work on fundamentals, chemistry, etc.

 

Not that I want to ever say "if he did something like Mark Sanchez" ever again.

He can work out all he wants, but unless they get a line that can protect him he will have the same issues next year.

How about a tall receiver that can out jump the defense as we saw Boldin do.

 

If he grows out his neck beard enough it can act in place of the O line, kinda like a hedgerow. Well it surely can't be as bad as some of the turnstile play we've seen this season!

To get back to the OP's question....

 

QB's do the following....

 

1.   Watch film

2.   Work out with receivers

3.   Watch more film

4.   Work out and get in better shape

5.   Watch even more film

6.   Work out more with receivers

 

7.   Endorsements

8.   If you're single....   well....   Just sayin....     :thmup:

 

Oops....  sorry....  we're talking just becoming a better QB and getting more arm strength....   got a little sidetracked there!

What does a tall receiver have to do with it when you use Boldin as an example. Boldin is barely 6'1" so he's not exactly a tall receiver. Besides that, we have Fleener who is much more like a receiver than a TE and we never utilize his height ever.

I never get this. He could send 50 tweets a day, and it wouldn't take more than an hour or so. That leaves 23 hours to do other, more productive things. It's hard to believe that being on Twitter hurts a player's ability to work on their craft.

haha it was a Joke Superman. And plus isn't he still nursing his Injury? Doubt he does much physical ability. He still might be doing physical therapy

Butler on the (failed) coverage looked like a scared child out there. He couldn't play that ball any better and he STILL got owned.

Okay, good. People always say stuff like that, though. "If so-and-so would spend a little less time [insert whatever random activity you want] and a little more time watching film/working out..." It's so ridiculous to me.

 

As for Powers, he had a toe injury two months ago. According to KFFL, he had surgery, and expected to be recovered sometime in January. I'm sure he's doing rehab and all that, but he should be back in business in time for camp. I don't know whether he'll be here or not; he's a free agent. I'd definitely want to resign him, but not for any significant amount of money. Two years, $6m ought to do it.
