What do you think about Rex now. He won the game for the Bears. You guys should bow to Harry

The bears won the game in spite of grossman, not because of him

That pass to Davis was impressive, but second half, he was not good

lets look at the drives

punt

pick

fg

I just hope we play the patriots in the super bowl and kick Belicheck in the sack

Rex played a good game, but I though the defense won the game.

the defense did not play all that well. they won today more because of the running game and rex than anything else.

Wow. You must have been in the pisser everytime they gave up a run for 12 yards on first down (small bladder? It happened a lot). Or a 14 yard TD run on 3rd and 10. And it seems you missed the several failed arm tackles they attempted. Not to mention the 24 points they gave up.

They came up big in a few spots, but came up very, very small in most others.

I shudder to think what's going to happen to them when they face not one, but two good RBs in the same game (at the same time), with a solid QB to boot.

The offense of New Orleans is strong and will have to be shut down somwehat. Rex sometimes thinks he's Dan Moreno. I'm surprised more defenses dont rushjust three guys and let him force passes or run. He's fragile and makes bad decisions. I'd blitz him less.

My favorite play of the game today was when Benson blocked that fat slob and sent him flying up in the air and he landed on his back, classic.

Jurko will be on the final word if anyone cares

Did Lovie Smith tell the Bears that the 3rd quarter didn't matter, because that is the only quarter imho where the Seahawks clearly outplayed the Bears.

.

I would love to know how Grossman almost lost the game for the Bears. He only led them down the field for the tying FG in regulation and the game winner in overtime. The game might have been out of reach if Moose and Berrian decided to hold onto the ball. Grossman's fumble was stupid because he should have protected the ball and taken a sack but he still played a good game. Why did they pass the ball 3 times on their last possession in regulation?

Mac not every pass will be thrown perfectly even by Rex Grossman but when a pass hits you in both hands and you bobble it that is not the quarterbacks fault. You are the only person that I've heard that said the interception was Rex fault. It's quite obvious why. You are like a lot of Bear fans. You want the team to win but you want Rex to suck. The Bears will play next week because of Rex not in spite of him.

It's good to hear the New Orleans angst in full flame.

How many 3rd and short's did Seattle not get the 1st down on ? They struggled some the first three quarters, but come 4th quarter/OT, the Bears defense played at a Championship level.

If he turns his back on the line of scrimmage once more, I'm gonna kill him. When they blitz or break through the protection, throw the f'er away immediately, not after you backpeddle and spin a few times. He played pretty well, but he certainly did not win the game for them.

I agree with you for about 3 quarters, but in that 4th quarter, they made a lot of BIG stops on 3rd and shorts. I believe it was the defense that gave us the opportunity to win this game. They stepped up down the stretch, got the stops, and got the ball back to the offense.

Watch the 4th quarter again. I'm not claiming they played a great game, and there's no doubt that the defense had it's struggles in the first three quarters. 24 points allowed ,(although 7 of them came on a short field), but how many times did the Bears stop Seattle on 3rd and 1/2 yards, 4th and 1 (with 2:00 to go) in the 4th and OT ?????? That's the key to the game right there. If they don't stop them, Seattle is going to get a FG opportunity. This isn't a rip on anyone else either - Rex played a good game, the run game was solid as well.

Rex played well today, not great, but bad Rex could of lost the fame for them and I will take this Rex anyday. The special team coverage of Kickoffs and punts today was awful and that hurt the Defense, so if that improves, things should be better next week. My favorite play of the game today was when Benson blocked that fat slob and sent him flying up in the air and he landed on his back, classic. For some reason, I just feel the Bears are going to spank the Saints, outdoor game is going to slow them down a bit and I think the D comes up with 2 td's..... Bears -35 Saints - 10

Not really, I think Rex needs more time to develop, unfortuntely the economics of the game mean that we will develop him, and not be able to pay him and he can become someone elses's starting quarterback.

The reason he makes bad decisions, in a lot of situations, is due to the blitzes that forces him to make quick decisions, and throw the ball.

Let's be honest.... Seattle lost the game more than the Bears won the game. Quite a few boneheaded calls by Mike HomeGrown, and piss poor plays by Hasselbeck. What about that stupid MFin' guy trying to get the Bears to jump offsides on the field goal attempt? Did Lovie Smith tell the Bears that the 3rd quarter didn't matter, because that is the only quarter imho where the Seahawks clearly outplayed the Bears. The Bears got EVERY break in this game and it still took them to overtime to put away the Seahawks, despite their depleted secondary. I'm sure Harry will give us a healthy dose of "Robbie Gould" love today. Hester and Grossman almost lost the game for us with their various bobbles/fumbles.

I've always thought the sign of a great coach is how a team plays in the third quarter. I'm very troubled heading into next sunday, but it has nothing to do with Rex. Anyone who had a problem with the way Rex played should have his head examined...and then be forced to look at the 3 pick games tossed by the NFL's two best QBs during these playoffs.

I had a couple of douchebag of the week's ready to go if they lost that game. Your running game is grinding the Seahawks down in the second half. This is the second week that has happened as the Cowboys did the same thing. You have a short field to work with and ample time to run your plays...and you choose to throw short passes. Thanks Ron Turner. Mushin Muhammed, how dare you say anything derogatory about anyone on the Bears. You are not, nor are you viewed as, a leader. You have stolen money for two years now for possession receiver numbers. Don't give your opinions to the media on Rex. Give us your opinions on why you made key drops on passes in the playoffs for a second consecutive year. Do you have another mysterious broken hand that you don't want to talk about...until it is available as a convenient excuse.

The Bears will play next week because of Rex not in spite of him. I don't know why they would absolve the WR from any resposibility from doing the job they are paid to do. I would expect any guy with reasonable speed off the street to catch a ball placed perfectly in his hands. A professional WR should be able to do a little more.

The pass to Moose was not perfect, but it was very catchable. Two hands on it; shoulda been caught. And besides, how many passes that most NFL QBs throw are perfect? NFL wideouts are supposed to hold on to catchable balls. If you want to trash Rex, there were several other plays worthy of criticism. I'd point to his habit of throwing the ball to nobody in particular when under pressure. He was lucky a few other balls weren't picked yesterday. He also has a habit of turning his back to pressure, trying to run away from it, and too often fumbling the ball at first contact. Grossman isn't going to evade any pass rusher bearing down on him. Sometimes he might be better off pulling a Peyton and just protecting the ball, curling into the fetal position and taking a sack. His zeal to make a play has led to several fumbles...and did yesterday again. But all that said, they WON the game. Rex made several plays when needed. Had Seattle converted that last fourth down at midfield and gone on to kick a game-winning field goal, the loss would have been on the defense and their inability to stop the run when it mattered...not on Grossman.

That's all I'll say. Both our defenses gave up some plays that left you scratching your head. But we've done it consistently all year (you hearing me, Joe Theismann?) whereas it's more uncharacteristic for the Bears defense to.
