Orton did get hose since he was the starter when they did good but the facts are both QBs suck cock... it doesnt matter which one started.

The bears were only good because of their defense, when they give up 29pts, they will never win, no matter who the QB is.

If anything they should of benched Tillman because that piece of shit got burned up about 20 times.

You guys bashing Grossman sound like you haven't been watching Bears football this season.

We never won a game because of Orton. We won because the defense dominated and Orton did what he had to do to win. Grossman did the same thing last night. If we score that many points, we should win.

But, when you give up 200 yards over your average and have cornerbacks who can't stay off the ground, you get beat.

Carolina stepped up and we didn't. But all this quarterback talk has nothing to do with it.

Omahilo,

Why do you always sound bitter when you talk about Chicago sports? I wouldn't call 11 games a fluke season. Just because they didn't do it conventionally doesn't make it a fluke. And the Panthers didn't "draw" the game, they had to win to earn the right to play us.

If the bears get a good quarterback in off season they will dominate that division again.

Grossman is the Bears quarterback next year.

Print it.

I go to Florida State and Grossman went to the University of Florida. My dad went to Purdue and Orton is from Purdue. So that is why I greatly favor Orton over Grossman. Besides I think Grossman is the "Grant Hill" of the NFL.

I went to Purdue as well, but I'm a Bears fan first and foremost. Grossman is not the Grant Hill of the NFL, at least not yet. That would take some work.

Now, if you're going for Purdue loyalty, I'm not one to disappoint. I named my son Andrew, after the grandfather I never met. But he's called, "Drew" because I happened to be at Purdue for a magical 4 year ride the same time a "Brees" was blowing through old Ross-Ade stadium.

After my beloved Bears, I root for the Chargers.

Ah see, I was born and raised in Boston, so for me it is the Patriots and then the Chargers.

Im actually a Bulls fan believe it or not so I dont hate all Chicago sports...

Also the panthers would of much rather played the bears compared to the Seahawks so the panthers did draw a better game than the redskins did.

Orton did suck (he had like 8 TDs and 14 INTs or some shit). The bears go as their defense goes, if the defense has a bad game, they will lose, simple as that.

I dont see Grossman being that great, you make it sound like he is going to be some awesome QB... Grossman is better than Orton but overall both QBs are below average at best.

I don't think Grossman is great, but I'd rather have had him in than Orton in this game. I also, whole-heartedly believe that Rex is this team's quarterback. They aren't going to upgrade at this position in the off-season.

I think Rex can be effective and can be the "Trent Dilfer" we need to get it done. I wouldn't cry if we could upgrade (Drew Brees comes to Chi-town and I cream my jeans!) but I don't think it's a point of emphasis.

Go Bulls, too!

I'm die-hard Chicago Bulls, Cubs, and Bears.

I think the Bears should pick up Owens. He may be a shitload of trouble, but at least he has some talent. The Bears had a ridiculous amount of dropped passes last night.

Since your dad's a Purdue alum, does he think Drew Brees is god's gift to football like the rest of us?

what do you think of the Purdue QB who is leaving early for the NFL?

Also the bulls are struggling right now.... hopefully they turn it around like last year at this time.
