So everyone will agree that Grossman pretty much sucked in the superbowl and was one of the many reasons da bears lost the game.
The question is, if it were up to you, would you keep Rex Grossman as your starting QB for next season? Do you draft a young promising QB, trade, or pick up a free agent?
I'm not Grossman fan, but I'm not necessarily giving up on him either. My opinion is you stick with the guy, after all this was his first full season as QB. His contract is good for one more year. I say let him try and earn that new contract and see how he performs during the regular season. If not, take him out and put someone else in.
Again, keep in mind this was Grossman's first full year. He had a lot of good games and threw 23 TD's in the regular season. Of course, he also had a lot of bad games and turned the ball over a shit load of times, as do many first, second, third and even forth year QB's (example- Troy Aikman was 1-15 as a starter, Peyton Mannings numbers sucked his first year, etc.)
I can't imagine the experience of two playoff games plus the superbowl cannot help him be a better QB next season.
Da bears have a lot of talent and if Grossman can improve his weaknesses they could easily win a superbowl (assuming they stay healthy and resign most of their players (Lance Briggs being one of those players)).
Some people are saying da bears should pick up Jeff Garcia (free agent), start Greise, and I've even heard drunken-master Kyle Orton's same being mentioned. Jeff Garcia I can kind of understand because of his good performances with Philly, but he is 37 years old.
So, what would you do?
