First of all, I don't know anything about Rex Grossman's college career as I'm not much of a college football fan. What I know about him as a pro is that he gets hurt at the beginning of the season and then misses the rest of it - with the exception of this year. Oh yeah, and he's as inconsistent as they come. All that being said - I genuinely feel bad for the guy. Like I said yesterday, the language that used to be for AM Talk Radio and cable opinion shows has now infiltrated the network shows and halftime at the Super Bowl. "He's terrible" is something for the fans to say to each other. I just cringe when an ex-Super Bowl quarterback says it to zillions of people. I don't know why it bothers me - it just does. So, in all fairness to Rex, I thought I'd point something out. Rex took the loss like a man and didn't point fingers. He called his picks mistakes - one a bad decision and one a bad throw. I remember last year when a certain menacing defense flattened our newly crowned SB MVP the entire game and he threw his offensive line under the bus. It would have been very easy for Rex to point out that Indy went on drives of 80, 47, 58, 56 and 62 to score points. The Bears defense is hiding behind Rex's reputation right now as they did little to stop Indy's running game. I'm not a fan of Rex Grossman. I just think he's getting piled on unfairly. I'm also not calling him Joe Montana. I pointed out yesterday that I only had 3 QBs below him in the history of the Super Bowl. Thing is, the guy that graduates last from medical school is still a doctor.
