Kerry Collins has always had a strange release
Rex Grossman goes 3/4 off his back foot an awful lot

You want an unorthodox motion, find some footage of Bernie Kosar and his submarine balls he threw on quick slants to Webster Slaughter. Or the throws where he took no backward motion, just brougth the ball up from his chest and flung it forward. The guy was a freaking junkballer, but a darn good one.

It always looked like he was losing his balance when he dropped back.
