Football is a game of adjustments. The Cards obviously watched film and figured out the reason for Grossmans success and took that away from him. He stubbornly kept trying to do the same thing time after time with the same results. The Bears will watch the film and point out what they were doing and how to counteract that. We'll see how Grossman responds and adjusts to their new found passing game over the next couple weeks. One thing that scares me about the Grossman situation that he can't control is the weather late in the season. Chicago is a tough place to play in winter and as the cold weather approaches I could see them taking some air out of the ball and trying to move it on the ground....
It cracks me up, how Grossman can play in 13 games total and in 6 games this year, play 4 good to great, 1 poor to mediocre, and 1 horrible and anybody can know what kind of QB he is going to be. There just isn't enough evidence, either way yet.
i'll take 3,200 yards and 32 TDs.you are saying like that is a bad thing.
He played in a whole 7 games before this year.
No doubt about that, he is also young and does not have allot of experience, the Bears need to calm him down a bit.
No, its great. people are expecting McNabb just because he pinned 4 on the Lions.
Its cool everyone knows Rex is the best. Thanks
He's someone who likely earns more than all of us COMBINED on an annual basis.Nobody knows what Rex is yet.
Are you related to him or just own him on your fantasy team?
obviously no one knows what he'll be yet, because he is so young in his career, so there's really no need to argue about it a whole lot ...in my opinion, he's a gunslinger. he's capable of having a 4td game like he did against detroit, and he's capable of getting stomped on like he did monday night @ arizona. at this point, his style allows for either to happen.i see one of two things happening:1) after the monday night crap-fest, they shift their gameplan to a more conservative attack. you'll see less of the extremes, and probably more consistent play ... 215 yards, 1.5ish tds per game. he'll still put up some numbers because the defense will give him that chance.2) they let him air it out, but kick him in the ### a few times and tell him to try to be smarter about it. he'll have more extremes in terms of tds & interceptions in that case ...either way, i don't see him staying top 5 in passing yards, because i think the Bears will be running the football more from this point on. it's a joke that they've been running it so little and so poorly, and i'm willing to bet that's gonna change.
I think it was clear what happened to Grossman on Monday night: he felt he was going to have the same big game on a national stage that he'd been having in previous weeks. He came out gunning and missed an open Berrian. The Bears got behind and Grossman was too eager to make up for what he probably felt should have been a majestic TD pass. And the harder he tried to play catch up and get the 21-point lead he'd grown accustomed to, the worse things got for him. He showed a lot of immaturity Monday night. He's got two weeks to think about his performance. I think the way he returns from this setback will speak volumes as to his future value. The ball is in his hands.
Both.
I drafted him in the last round of a few dynasty drafts and picked him up on waivers last year in another. I believe in him and feel he is a great talent. What's wrong with that?
