After watching only the first quarter in the NFL replay, one thing became abundantly clear: Rex Grossman is scared. Even though he was facing heat the entire first quarter, Rex Grossman was throwing like he had a gun pointed at him. Timid movements, bad mechanics, late reads, and unsure throws combined to make him look rough. With or without pressure, an NFL QB needs to be more pocket aware, needs to understand when a sack is better than a lame duck pass, and what to do to avoid either the sack or the intentional grounding. There is absolutely no mystery why Kyle Orton was named the starter.

that i pulled some BS! But seriously, referring to the new post about wins, i cant see us scoring a TD with the Oline playing like they did saturday

doesnt look like its working....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From the PFT rumor mill... RAMS KICK BENTLEY’S TIRES Posted by Michael David Smith on August 25, 2008, 1:34 p.m. Free agent offensive lineman offensive lineman LeCharles Bentley didn’t play a down in 2006 or 2007, his two seasons with the Browns. If he plays in 2008, it may be with the Rams. Jim Thomas of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that Bentley is on the way to St. Louis to have a visit and a physical today. Bentley was considered one of the best young offensive linemen in the league after his first four seasons, all with the Saints. But he never got on the field after signing a six-year, $36 million contract with the Browns during the 2006 of…

Bucs Work Out Veteran OL Miller Posted August 26, 2008 by Roy Cummings Updated Aug 26, 2008 at 04:40 PM TAMPA - The Bucs have been on the lookout for someone to push Donald Penn for the starting left tackle job and they may have found him. Fred Miller, a durable 12-year veteran who has spent his last three seasons with the Chicago Bears, spent part of Tuesday working out for the Bucs at One Buc Place. The Bucs interest in Miller comes in the wake of their decision to let go of veteran Luke Petitgout. Petitgout was struggling to recover from a knee injury and a lingering back problem and had also earned a four-game suspension from the league for …

Bears Labor Day Update

Bears safety Kevin Payne seems to have mastered the art of disguise, refusing to divulge whether he'll start Sunday night's season opener at Indianapolis. If the Bears can mask their defensive coverages in the same manner, maybe they'll have a chance to knock the high-powered Colts off stride. Payne is expected to start at strong safety alongside free safety Mike Brown, a tandem the Bears hope equals better success than their safeties had in Super Bowl XLI. "I like what Kevin Payne has to offer," cornerback Charles Tillman said. "He's young, but I think he's a quick learner. Being in there with Mike Brown and Brandon McGowan, he's picked up things qui…

I love football and there is nothing better than opening day. Hope springs eternal and all the work from the team and all of our bullshit from the board will come to light. But, remember one thing boys... This game is winnable! So grab your favorite beverage, cook your favorite meat on the grill and get ready to support your team. This is the day that we will find out what our team and staff are all about. It's gameday! Go Bears! No prisoners!!!

Peanut punching the ball out of Harrison's hand. Absolutely outstanding. Peace

Old Spice commercial is freakin hillarious. I love how he says who's laughing now....Me. Sorry, I saw it last night and just a few minutes ago on MNF, and wanted to hear what all of you had to say about it. Last night when it came on I laughed so hard my wife gave me the WTF look. His dry humor cracks me up like in the commercial and during the interview after the game. Cocky, yet funny gotta love that!

This offense obviously does suck, but Ron Turner had some of the worst play calling in this game I have ever seen. He should be fired on the spot and be replaced with anyone with half a brain.

will we see Earl Bennett this week returning kicks? Regardless if Hester is hurt or not, we could at least use a reciever

http://www.tampabay.com/sports/football/bu...ticle817526.ece Haha, Brian Griese and Mickeal Clayton, wow

to the 53 man roster. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/footb...0,6296293.story Peace

Sorry if this looks like a wasted post, but I just wanted to get some people in the chatroom this week for the game. Alot of people, like myself, probably scan right down past the top posts and forget about it. Let's fill up the chatrooma and watch the Chicago Bears go to 2-1!!! http://pub25.bravenet.com/chat/show.php/2092760412

This coaching staff is herendous. I wouldnt mind seeing all but Toub fired. How do u consistently repeat the same bonehead mistakes? And Lovie should check himself in at the Chicago Memorial Hospital for his Alzheimers'. He looks like a zombie. where the hell is Marc Bradley and Earl bennet? The sabercat(davis) has nothing but destroy the teams chance to win the last two games. At least those two guys can catch. Hey Orton, welcome to the Rex Grossman club. Nice pass to Gaines Adams. Also, try cocking your arm back to throw a pass with a little bit of speed on it. I dont remember once seeing you hit a guy that was 5 yards passed his defender. Forte was wide open…

INJURY REPORT AND IMPLICATIONS Philadelphia Eagles (2-1) at Chicago Bears (1-2) By Michael Nudo Running back Brian Westbrook is a major question mark going into Sunday night (AP Photo/Tom Mihalek). BEARS OFFENSEcolor> vs. EAGLES DEFENSEcolor> The Bears are hopeful wide receiver/return specialist Devin Hester will return to action after a week two rib injury. His receiver reps went to Rashied Davis last week. Mark Bradley was released on Tuesday. His release should mean more looks for rookie Earl Bennett. Bennett can also return punts. Cornerback Nathan Vasher has assumed those duties since Hester was hurt. Leading receiver Brandon Lloyd has a hip inju…
