So, How about now SMOOTSMACK?

Its not his fault, right? LOL, that SHOULD be three.

See I don't get fans like you, so happy to be proven right? Looks like that is more important for you.

Id much rather be proven wrong, but its just crazy to me how we have to see Rex Grossman take this team down with him in order to get the point. Like I have said, our defense is playing like shit right now, yes. But all of the wins we have, the defense has won the games in SPITE of Rex Grossman.

Well both Rex and the defense are playing equally ugly. I do think Rex need to be bench, but let's not act like that will be the end of all the problems today.

No, and by the looks of it, far from it. Our problems start with the coaches, playcalling and then execution.

But Grossman is playing so inadequately that the change HAS to be made. And if there is one time where I would want to say, "Told ya so", it wouldnt be this time. I hate watching absolutely atrocious quarterback play being masked by a defense that continually bails you out, and by other defenses dropping your picks. But I also hate people making stupid excuses for them, and ignoring the obvious, just because that is the way it is.


In my mind, there is a reason that there is 53 players on a team. Just because you are a quarterback does not mean you are "Protected" from getting your ass benched because you play like absolute shit.
