After giving up close to 400 yards (rushing) i want to know where all the Bear's haters are now? Alot of people ignored and/or laughed at my previous NFL post when i asked the following: "Would you rather have Grossman at QB, the Colt’s run defense, or the Titans wide receiving core? At least Grossman has alot of potential...I can't say the same for the Colts run D even with the BOGGER clogging up the middle." This proved to be (small case p) prophetic.
The Bear's QB issue is not nearly as big as the injury issues. The best DT in the game plays for the Bears (Tommie Harris). They are saying he could be lost for the season (like Pro-Bowler, Mike Brown). Nathan Vasher is also questionable for tonight's game (that's 3 pro-bowlers)...
IF Rex does not have a good game Lovie may be forced to bench him (w/a decent backup waiting in the wings). Lovie does not want to to put Brian Griese into the playoff action with no starts under his belt.
I appreciate Lovie sticking with Rex even though the whole world is against him/Rex. I believe this move will pay off (this season and beyond). Today's blog goes out to REX and to the Colt's run defense...Well actually only to Rex.

Colts fans are still here and not going anywhere. I admit you got us...our
D is absolutely horrible. If we continue to play like that, there will only
be a one and out for us in the playoffs.
The Colts receivers also need a lesson in how to catch and hold on to a
ball. #18 got it there most of the day, but our boys must have had grease
on thier gloves.
On the other hand, hats off ot the Bears for a great MNF game. Grossman,
who I am a fan of because he is a Bloomington (IN) boy, actually showed up
and did his job by throwing to the guys with Bears uniforms on. But you
have to admit, the defense can win you games, but a horible offense can lose
you games as well. So it really takes both side of ball.
Tom Jackson (ESPN) said it perfectly on Sunday night...Manning will have to
play perfect games from here on out, and hold his breath and pray when the D
is on the field, just to get anywhere. I bet the Bears D feels kind of the
same way about Grossman.

Mark,
We are in OK on vacation. Hester and the Bear's D is good enough to win if Rex can play like he did on Monday night.
With Tommie Harris (the best DT in the game) lost for the season our D is no longer invincible. We already lost pro-bowler Mike Brown for the season. Injuries can mess stuff up, esp. if you lose a few pro-bowl players (look how poorly the Giants D has been playing).

NOTICE: This post was BEFORE the game on Monday. Lovie and i were right (stick w/Rex).
People are way too fickle, including NFL fans. People were shouting Pro-Bowl during the first half of the season & recently they are saying BENCH that Bum.

The Colts fans decided to plead the 5th
