Re: Orton named starter for Monday

I feel a little sorry for him that he is going to get picked on all game. The Bears will not be able to run the ball and he will be forced to make throws to have any shot at a W.

There is so many pictures on the internet of him getting wasted... guess he didn't take the benching lightly a couple years ago.

LOL Win. Good one. Usually facing the Vikings I would except a close game for us but we will probably get -50 yards rushing and allow 300 yards rushing. I see us losing by 10+.

They won despite Orton, not because of him. He completed 51% of his passes for like, 5 yards a pop, with 9 TDs and 13 INTs

That's what I say about Grossman because you swear from some people that Grossman is the greatest thing since sliced bread because he "lead the Bears to the Superbowl" last year.

Re: Orton named starter for Monday

Grossman gets a really raw end of the deal. When your receivers don't catch the ball and your line doesn't block and you don't have a running game... You're not going to look good. I watched that game two weeks ago and I swear Grossman looked like the only Bear on the field that WANTED that game. The defense sucked, his running backs sucked, his receivers dropped passes left and right, he was constantly pressured, his tight end dropped a pass... yet, he kept getting in there trying to make things happen. Made some beautiful throws, and most of them were dropped. But they did make a couple catches and tied that game and brought it to overtime and eventually won.

Devin Hester and Rex Grossman were the only players on the field that looked like they even cared.

Here come the days of glory back!

But seriously this is good. Hopefully I won't have to watch Griese ever again in a Bears uniform. I'm curious to see how he has developed since he rode the defense's coat tails to the playoffs his rookie season.
.
Fixed.
