I just watched the Superbowl on NFL Channel. Rex threw a pick for a touchdown and singlehandedly turned a 2nd and 1 into 4th and 20 something by falling down and fumbling. I think the score would have been exactly the same no matter who played on your D.

Three things killed Da Bears.

  1. Rex GROSSman
  2. Rex GROSSman
  3. Rex GROSSman
  4. Rex GROSSman
    And...
  5. Rex GROSSman
Oops that's 5 things.
'Series', Having Tommy Harris and Mike Brown out hurt more than anything. THEN that bonehead Ron Rivera and his version of the Cover 2 was 100% FUBAR. Lastly - GROSSman.

Back in the 'olden days' Da Bears had a QB named Jack Concannon who was laughed off Da Bears pretty much for one messed up snap (it went over his head) - which made blooper highlights for years. YET &*#%%^$* GROSSman is still here - go figure.

An aside, back in the 1990's Jack hung out at the same Lounge I did in Arlington Heights. A very nice guy, drank a little too much maybe (guess we all did there). He's dead now. Died at 62.

I watched that last night with my wife - a HUGE Colts and Manning fanatic.

And I agree completely. Rex Grossman simply isn’t a good quarterback. He freaks out at the oddest times in games....has anyone ever fumbled as many snaps from center in a single season?

As long as he’s the QB for the Bears, that defense will never see a winning Super Bowl. Watching the game last night just reconfirmed the view I held all last year, and that I hold going into this season.
