The Bears have solidified their desire to limp by with sub-par QB's by re-signing Wrex Grossform...again.
Seriously, it's like an unwritten rule their QB's have to suck. |

| I hadn't seen or heard this yet, but it had better have been for "back up" money. The Bears need to seriously persue a real QB this off-season. Seriously. |

I think I heard the re-signed Orton as backup for a one year deal too. |

This is the problem that I have with professional sports. You have a guy that hasn't shown you anything during his contract period, so you let him know of your unhappiness with his performance by giving him a 1 year, $3MM deal, plus $2MM in incentives if he is the starter.
Where the f&%k can I find a job like THAT? |

Yeah, I don't get it...I have no idea what the Bears are thinking about their QB future. To me, it's obvious Wrex isn't the answer. At best, he's a long term #2. However, there is nothing worth grabbing on free agency...so, let's say they draft a QB. I think the only QB worth a 14th overall selection is Matt Ryan, and I think that's a stretch even though everyone has him pegged as a Top 5. If I am the Bears, I draft a RB at 14 and wait until the 2nd round to grab a Henne, Flacco or something.
So, I guess their strategy is...give Grossman/Orton 1-year deals. Probably shed yourself of Griese. Draft a rookie to have a competition available going into 2009 season. Hope that Grossman is motivated and shows progress in 2008...AND can show he's healthy. Because, in my mind, that's a red flag with him alone outside of the performance issue.
I don't know...if I were a Bears fan I'd be getting extremely perturbed by the Grossman Experiment at this point. |

| Rex Grossman is a joke. Chicago can't identify the difference between a soccer girl and a quarterback. That much is clear. |

| I dunno...I've seen tougher and smarter soccer girls than Rex Grossman. You may want to apologize to the soccer girls out there... |

| It's going to be real interesting to see how they draft. |
