  • Better by a lot than Grossman. The Bears are planning ahead though. They figure to stock up a few year's worth of high draft picks.

    • I thought that for a long time also, but the problem was he isn't good enough at downfield passing, which means he didn't work for the Bears' offense. Grossman is hit or miss, he has one game rating 100-120 and another game at rating 40 or less. Griese consistently was sort of passable, but never great; and while in 2006 that might have been good enough with that defense, in 2007 it certainly wasn't.

      Grossman could, in theory, suddenly figure it out and be a good QB for the Bears. Maybe a 0.1% chance, but it's there. Griese could never do that, unfortunately; not in the Bears' scheme at least.

      • Griese had the gall to take credit for leading the team downfield in the final minute for a win. His headset didn't work, so he called his own plays. Made the offensive coodinator look bad.

        That's why he's gone. It as simple and petty as that.

          • And Greise is correct.

            • The Favre news is popping up everywhere in the past half-hour.
              Looks like it's true. I'm very surprised.

                    • I'm curious what went into the decision. Was it just that the last few years everyone has said 'Favre is going to retire, he should retire' so he didn't, and this year many changed their minds and suggested he not retire, so he did?

                              Minnesota can't win a big game, just ask Fran Tarkenton

                              • They won't have to win any "big" games to dominate their division, I'm thinking.
