Josh Freeman went and worked out with Drew Brees this past summer and one of the things he really focused on was his footwork. He has made the same kind of strides as a QB this year that Cassel has made. (Very similar increases in stats between Cassel and Freeman)
Drew Brees says the key to his accuracy is being able to throw the ball the same way every time--and that all begins with good footwork.

...good footwork is imperative, just like in boxing and playing oline..it's getting your hips in place..that's where all your power comes from.
