    Report: Bears bench Grossman for Griese

    http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/7264306?MSNHPHMA

    The Chicago Bears have stuck with Rex Grossman through interceptions and losses, but it appears patience has run out with the inconsistent quarterback.

    According to an NFL.com report, the Bears will start Brian Griese against the Lions on Sunday.
    Grossman threw three interceptions as the Chicago Bears fell to the Dallas Cowboys 34-10 on Sunday night, and he did not get a vote of confidence from his coach a day later.

    "Will Rex Grossman start Sunday?" coach Lovie Smith asked on Monday, repeating the question. "Well, our evaluation process is going on right now, and if you come out to practice Wednesday, you'll have a better idea of who will be starting at all positions."

    Has Smith made a decision?

    I think we can all agree this is horrible news. >
    It will be hard to give Greezy a QB rating of 3, but very likely against Grossman.
    Rock out with your cock out!!!

    Re: Report: Bears bench Grossman for Griese

    I find it funny that the Bears made this decision after Lovie said over and over again, "Rex is our quaterback"... I was hoping that he was actually a man of his word... unfortunately, he is not.

    Too bad, Griese was a probowl QB for the Broncos...
