Windy City Gridiron Fact Check: Trubisky and the Deep Ball

A number of people have opinions on Trubisky’s deep ball. For example, I have expressed concerns over his hip motion and alignment when throwing the ball, especially from the pocket. However, the problem with these sorts of opinions is that they frequently rely on anecdotes and one-off observations. A single impressive connection or a brutal miss can weigh heavily in our minds, and that can influence what we see (or think we see) the next time through.

1520 passes traveled over 20 yards through the air in 2018 over the course of the 256 regular season games and the playoffs.
