Hester on the Cutler deep ball, courtesy of the Ginger Haired Genius' tweets:
"I thought I was too far out. Even the defenders that were guarding me slowed down. If he gets flushed out of the pocket - don't come back. Don't do any scrambling drills. Just keep going. Lesson learned."
That was my first thought upon watching it as well:

I honestly think that Hester was caught off guard by how far the ball went. It traveled 60+ yards in the air while he was on the run.
You just don't expect that. You figure, once you are that far out, that you had better slow down because there's no chance the ball is going that far. Like he said, lesson learned.
