  1. I'd be satisfied with Benson as the full time RB. Having both is nice, but losing Jones would hardly be devastating. There are bigger fish to fry. Jones will be paid as a feature back for some other team's offense, I assume. I would go with Irons in the 2nd rd. if he's there. Yeah, can't be paying more RBs. Just draft one or pick one up somewhere. The Benson era has begun, assuming his knee isn't too bad.
  2. To be honest this is my worst nightmare. I knew the Colts were the more experienced playoff club coming in. The last thing I wanted was a Rex implosion that could carry over to next year and beyond. Now all the good things Rex accomplished this year will be forgotten.
  3. It doesn't matter. This is their proof that Rex should shut up and take all the criticism until his head explodes. To be honest, I'm not sure Grossman survives this. I know it's the Super Bowl and all, but he's going to have reporters crawling up his ass until he can't see straight now.
  4. Look at the bright side Bear fans. At least you don't have to shell out for another set of Bears gear.
  5. Most of the media and Bears fans are morons, so I doubt they'll look at it objectively. He had a bad game, he's had several of them and several great games, enough glimpses of great games to merit seeing what he can do with more experience. He played terribly in the Super Bowl after whining about being criticized. Believe this like you believe in life itself: Rex is about to be crucified to all hell.
  6. Yeah, clearly the biggest problems for the Bears are QB and secondary, though they have dealt with Harrison and Wayne well tonight. They had to kill themselves with the short passing game to get it though. I'm not satisfied with having to play 10 yards off receivers and instituting a "bend but don't break" philosophy----which is really just another way of saying "we can't stop you so please make a mistake".
  7. They whipped the Bears in every aspect except special teams. Still upsets me off though. :x I'm really upset too. But. Gotta suck it up and admit they were better and they just beat us.
  8. Addai He should be, but I can see them going with Manning to make it a good story. I'm pretty sure it'll be Manning.
  9. Your Avatar sums up how I feel right now perfectly.
  10. Once and for all, because I believe in being a good sport: Congrats to the Colts. Better team today, no question about it.
  11. Griese isn't any better. He can't possibly be worse than Grossman. Rex doesn't do anything well. Sure he can, his strengths aren't the Bears need. He's a good back-up/bad starter, people forget that this is Rex's 1st season. I'm not sold on him, but I'm willing to give him next year. You're right, not only because of what you say but also just because of the practicalities of NFL football. The Bears are in no position -- no way, no how -- to start dealing for a QB. They've got to find a way to resign Lance Briggs or the window closes *immediately*. Then they've got other defensive contracts coming due. The money's going to get tight. They need to resign Grossman for medium dollars, using his poor performances as leverage, and try to coach him up. There is no other way forward.
  12. Pitchers and Catchers report!!!!
  13. I doubt Angelo will. They'll use this to sign Grossman to much less $$$$$ and pray he learns.
  14. Yep. Boy, is he gonna get it. Wow. And he absolutely deserves all of it. These are just awful passes. Yes, he does.
  15. Congrats Colts. The much better team today, for sure.
  16. Yep. Boy, is he gonna get it. Wow.
  17. LOL, alright what else is on TV right now?
  18. Ummmm no, you can't run ball-control offense now Turner. That's what you do BEFORE you suck on world TV for 3 1/2 quarters.
  19. Seriously, he had no business throwing that. He had Moose with the clear inside track, though. The throw was terrible, yet Moose has no excuse for not knocking it down. Just zip it to him then. WTF with the loopy desperation lob? That was mind-bogglingly dumb.
  20. Seriously, he had no business throwing that. That one will haunt him the rest of his career. Just an absolutely horrid, horrid decision & throw.
  21. Haha. Yeah. Get ready for bad bad desperate Rex.
  22. Totally in bounds. Can't blame Lovie for challenging it, it's desperation now.
  23. Game over. Congrats Colts.
  24. Game over. Let the Rex bashing begin.
