griese.jpgI was one of the first fans on the Rex Grossman bandwagon. And I’m not really sure that I’m ready to get off. If this were any team in any season, I think he would develop into a fine QB. The problem is he’s not on ANY team, he’s on a Bears team that is ready to go to a Superbowl. It’s not just any season, it’s the “window” in which our defense is together, healthy, and ready. The pressure on Grossman is insane … and not really fair. Putting Griese in would satisfy rabid fans and give Rex a chance to catch his breath.

I’m not as worried about Grossman being the right QB as I am Turner being the right offensive coordinator. He doesn’t seem to be adjusting to Grossman the way he did to Orton … and that’s a problem.
