Done and Done

I have been a Rex Grossman fan since he came into the league. I thought he was going to be a great "sleeper" draft pick and someone that could change the way we looked at the Monsters of the Midway. I was wrong. It is only one game into the season but the fact of the matter is that all of the other QB's that are in the same position as Rex (as far as age, experience and talent go) are progressing. For example Eli Manning and Tony Romo both had monster games last night. Neither of them played perfect, but they threw for a ton of yards and played a competative game until the end. This year we can also look foward to seeing Matt Leinart and Vince Young as they pass up Rex as young outstanding QB's in the NFL, and Bears fans will be left with Brian Griese once Lovie has had enough. Game one is in the books and I still have a positive outlook for the Bears season. Another NFC North championship should be around the corner. But until we can figure out how to throw the ball down field without holding our breath, the Bears will never win the SuperBowl. PS - Please do not blame this game on Cedric Benson. I would put money on the Bears rushing game being 100% better if the passing game wasn't a joke. Obvously this can work both ways but I haven't seen enough of Benson to write him off just yet. Hopefully I am singing a different tune next week after the Bears take on a struggling Kansas City team. But until then I'm as bitter as I can get.
