Poor Bears fans. I say go back to Orton, but I feel that Griese has the potential to beat them both. Of course, he'll take a little more time to settle in at the helm.

Bears fans are just like us [Golden] Bears fans in 2005 with a QB that throws more interceptions than completions (remember USC 2005? =P)

If they punted every time they got the ball, they'd win :D Maybe their defense needs a little more break then that so kneel every play and drag the clock out then punt on 4th down.

This year I don't think it will matter as the whole team seems to be out of sink.....HOWEVER, I think they COULD have been undefeated last year if they had Bret Farve.

Grossman is just like most bears quarterbacks in recent history, much more appreciated when injured than when playing.

Honestly, I'd go with Jake Plummer. Lure him out of retirement, let him start. He won't be worse than Rex.

I was definitely going to go with the Lions this week, but now that Griese is in, I'm not so sure. I have always liked him... probably because he was a Wolverine.

i wouldnt change anything. Griese is not really any better. BUT he won't try to shift blame to the Center (who is considered one of the best in the legue) or the recievers .

Should've signed Culpepper when they had the chance.

How was that not an option? Why did no one in the front office think of that?

:confused:

they did. but they are blinded by sexy rexy's hot games. when he is on he is amazing.

its hard to throw talent like that away. What IF you trade him and then he gets his shit together?

Terry Bradshaw would have more success than Rexy did... But did we really need another thread on this topic?

Anyone else at all. Whenever Rex even completes like 2 in a row, people are like "well he had a good drive". Hopefully Griese will dominate next week and we won't ever look back.

while i am happy they are benching rex. Griese is NOT the answerer.
