again as I have said from the beginning Rex is NOT nfl starting material.
Yeah its cool to believe in his potential and give him a chance to develop into a good quarterback, but damn the bears have the number one defense and great special teams and a very producing offense with one weak link REX GROSSMAN. I say bench the guy, and do what is best for the team (a winning /super bowl potential team).
maybe I dont see it, but I have never bought into grossman, hes the most over rated could be great quarterback.
honestly if you think about it, if it was not for some luck and talented defense the bears instead of being 9-2 should be more like 8-3 or 7-4 based off the inconsistent playing of Rex. He has played 11 games and has had 12+ weeks to correct his mistakes and he still has not!

This came was lost by GROSSMAN who sucked bad with his 4 turnovers it would have been a win if the MORON doesn't throw 3 picks and drop a cente snap for no good reason on the PATS 7 FREAKIN YARD LINE. That lead to a 14 pt swing in favor of the PATS if the BEARS score there and NOT DROP THE ****** BALL!
Its time for GRIESE for some consistency and if he went in this game at half it would of been a BEARS win probably. Although I was not overly disappointed b/c I figured they would lose this game, this game was there for the taking and GROSSMAN "Simply dropped the Ball!" (Literally) and a WIN here would have been FREAKING HUGE!!:*****:
I don't know why they got of their game plan that was successful against the JETS and didn't stick to running the ball up the gut (with BENSON who was leveling peope and JONES who had a strong second half) and with some more conservative pass plays mixed in (instead of the first 11 of 17 plays going for passes and many long and leading to an intersection (1 or 3 GROSSMAN PICS) on the first series! :ack:

Rex does need to be benched, but in his defense......
Brady had much more time in the pocket to throw, it was unbelievable. Rex was hurried and knocked down probably 6x as often as Brady. If it wasnt for the Bears defense who knows what that game would have looked like. They should have given Griese the chance after Rex was complaining about his hand.
Between the blocked field goal for the Bears, and the late time out on the field goal for the Pats (basically giving them a free practice kick), that could have made a ton of difference. I understand calling a tie out and making them think about it, but they called it so late it gave them a free kick.
Rex edfinetly has talent, but this team shouldnt have to suffer waiting for it to show.

Two things, 1. We have no pass rush!
2. QB sucks.
We can't give good QB's all day to throw the ball! You have to admit , they have a great record for the players they have!

He's basicly a rookie, and faced a defense that could confuse Payton Manning. What he needs to do is understand checkdowns a little bit more. I know, when he walks up to the line and sees a cover zero (man coverage across the board no safety in the middle b/c he's up for run support or covering a TE/back), he can't help but drool. That's every QB's dream and the best chance for a home run ball. BUT he needs to realize that if the DB runs the route for him he doesn't need to heave it. There's a mismatch somewhere. Check down or hit a cheerleader. There's nothing wrong with 2nd and 10 when their guys have a better down than yours. He'll learn. Give him time. He's done a lot of promising things so far. Manning led the NFL in interceptions his rookie year. Elway got boo'd off the field in his. Aikman went 1-15. Let the kid grow, he seems to have a good head and takes his mistakes in stride. He doesn't seem to have "rabbit ears" and care what others think. That's a great quality for a leader to have.

can anyone tell me what Mr. awesome Payton Mannings record was after his frist 16 games... NOT ******* GOOD AT ALL... ALL you haters of grossman need to give the guy a chance, that was the second best d in all of the NFL and he had some pretty damn good numbers up on the board... Brady threw a few picks but no one is jumping on him and saying he sucks? Give the guy a chance, grease is an old man and cant do **** and has a .500 record as an NFL qb, whats grossmans like .750 he's still getting it, payton wasnt a super start his first season either... 16 games isnt **** IN THE NFL... so back the hell off of him... there where a few droped ***** he threw good its not always the QBs fault.
