Behind every bad sports team is a bad owner..

Sure, Grossman put up some decent numbers for a while, but in the end he was exposed for what he is now – at best a semi-competent backup that has and always will have mental toughness issues. Booing in Chicago “devastated” him? Come on. Rex was cocky here from Day 1 and was never embraced because he never backed up all the talk. If booing bothers him that much, he shouldn’t even be a backup. And all of us can’t and never will be able to forget the memory of that night in Miami’s rain that he played slip and slide all over the place in as embarrassing of a QB performance you’ll ever see in a Super Bowl.

That said, Dan Grossman does have some valid points. The Bears from the top down are a mess and have been for years, and Cutler’s been placed in a bad situation. They just extended him out, so unless they build out around him quickly and correctly, the investment will be wasted. The problem is that until both are fired, Angelo and Lovie are being entrusted with the buildout, and I don’t know any Bears fans that feel comfortable about those brothers of incompetence trying to do what’s needed.

This season is a wash. They got Cutler and thought through some half-a$%*& player acquisitions and hiring a former head coach from a winless team, they would have enough to be in the playoffs, but there are too many holes to even consider that a remote possibility right now. As Roy has said before, as long as Lovie is here (and Angelo), this team is not capable of winning – it’s time to clear the garbage out ASAP, but we all know it’s not happening anytime soon.

As far as Grossman. Grossman certainly has the talent and ability to be a great QB, but he lacks the mentality to be a great QB. That was his major problem in Chicago. We all saw what he could do in those few games in 2006, something many of us were saying we hadnt seen since Kramers 95 season and then before the Jim McMahon. Grossman had head issues, and I’m sure that had alot to do with our brutal our fan base can be to QBs (Though not as bad as Philly in my opinion…nothing beats Philly fans).

But the organization does need a cleansing. This is a pathetically coached team and development has produced absolutely nothing in the past 4 years..In fact, players who were developed have regressed quite a bit. Forte, Vasher, Tommie Harris, some can even make the case for Cutler (though changing teams in my opinion is not regression).

It starts at the top with the McCaskey’s low balling, and trickles on down the line all the way to the team trainer.

I’ve said this before, and I will say it again. We can all hope and wish for the Bears to go somewhere, but in my opinion, this team will not win a Super Bowl again until the McCaskey’s are no longer owners. I only hopes that that becomes sooner than later.
