Here We Go Again

I swear to God, if I have to deal with another season of this from Rex Grossman, I may just kill him. I'm not just saying that either. I mean, I will climb a tree outside of Halas Hall with a rifle, and stay there for days if I have to, until I can get a clean shot.

Does this storyline sound familiar to you? Bears win, Rex commits three turnover.

It all started out so well, too. There was one play early where Rex was pressured, and then he did something that completely blew my mind. He stepped up in the pocket, then scrambled for a few yards before firing a bullet to Bernard Berrian for a first down.

It was amazing. We've never seen that before from Rex. I had no idea the Sex Cannon had wheels on it!

A few plays later, Rex was pressured in the pocket again. Once again, he stepped up to avoid the pressure, but had the ball stripped from his hand by a lineman.

My initial thought? Well, at least it wasn't a fumbled snap! I mean, all quarterbacks get stripped by defensive lineman once in a while.

Then, of course, Rex fumbled two snaps later in the game.

Now all of that positive energy I had been feeling about Grossman is gone, and this morning I can't stand the guy. For the most part, I stood behind him last season. Everytime he messed something up, I made an excuse for him, or thought about all the times he played so great.

Not anymore.

I'm not going to deal with this crap for another season. Especially when there are two other quarterbacks on the roster who don't scare the shit out of me.

Brian Urlacher was interviewed on the sidelines, and when Michelle Tafoya asked him about Rex's fumbles he said that Rex is just getting them out of the way now in the preseason.

He fucking better be, but just in case, I'm loading the rifle now.
