In a sign that Lovie Smith likely won't watch idly if Brian Griese struggles Sunday against the Raiders, the Bears increased Rex Grossman's work in practice this week from 30 percent of the snaps to 40 percent, a team source confirmed Friday.

I know we laugh at Rex all of the time, but I think they made a mistake benching him. I honestly thought he was their best QB. IT's not saying much, but the guy did make some really good throws from time to time.

[esoxx]

What choice do they have, Kyle Orton? :lol:

Griese's not the answer.

They're screwed.

[Pacopete4]

Kyle Orton won a lotta games for them.. why didnt they give this guy a chance?... doesnt make sense to me..


maybe their problems dont all fall on the QB position........

59.7 QB Rating as a starter.

But then again, they won 10 games with him (or in spite of him)

The ship has already sunk, it'd make sense to give him a chance. I seem to remember he played pretty decent in camp.

It isn't all the QB issue. It's because they can't run the ball. You think we have it bad, they ditched Thomas Jones in FA and kept Cedric Benson.

Benson is soft and their O-Line has struggled in the run. Heard on PFW's radio show that the Chicago rushing attack is 31st in the league.

Combine that with mediocre at best QB play and that leads to an anemic offense.

At least we have an All-Pro QB to save us from a subpar rushing attack.

Wrex is my favorite football player. I sincerely hope they sign him to a fully guaranteed 10 year contract, with cap hits so severe they cannot trade or bench him for the entire duration of the contract.

Let's start an online petition. Bring back WREX! :twisted:

Right behind ya, RG!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Sad thing is he'd be an upgrade over Jackson in Minnesota..... :cry:

Maybe they'll trade him to the Vikes for Fergy. Bears could use a good blocking WR. :mrgreen:

You won't be laughing when AD runs by a cb tomorrow!

[oregonpackfan]

Perhaps Rex is returning because carrying the clipboard might have been too much for him! :)

More likely a safety.

Once he gets past the cb on the sidelines it's over. Maybe going forward safeties will take better angles, because it seems they misjudge his speed and they take bad angles and it's a 50 yard run.

Kyle Orton wasn't the reason why the Bears won when he played. He was horrible. I'm not sure how they won those games with him in there, but doesn't it say something that he can't get on the field with only Griese and Grossman as his competition?

I don't even think he did that well. There were too many pics of him smiling when griese messed up. Real Sad!!!!

BRING BACK REX!!!

It is sad to see such an incredible talent surrounded by the rest of those skill positions on offense. RB's typically have short careers. You guys hit the jackpot with him, so the Vikings better move quickly, because the clock is ticking.

Not to mention that Peterson's (admittedly effective) aggressive upright style doesn't seem designed to lengthen his career any.
