Between Grossman, Griese, and Orton ... I would actually take Orton at this stage of the game.
Grossman is beyond inconsistent. Griese looked like a car crash victim. It is almost like Orton went from being the focus to almost being abandoned by this team. Orton may not have the strongest arm of the three, but he has a solid short game that can march against most of the stronger defenses. Also, Orton's release is quicker than the two "G"-boys.
With the playoffs already established, the Bears looked like they either didn't care and just let the Packers do what they want since the game was considered meaningless for any playoff implications. Hell, 5 INTs for 1 TD does not cut it at all, nevermind two returned for TDs. It may be time to get Orton more reps with the first string offense so he can step in when the time is right.

Absolutely! A lot of people seem to have forgotten what Orton did for the bears last season as a rookie when Grossman was hurt. If it had not been for Rothlisbergers rookie season the year before everyone would still be talking about the "super rookie". All the guy did was win ball games. 10 of them to be precise, in a 13 - 3 season, as a ROOKIE!!!! Don't forget the bears beat Carolina last year with Orton at QB, then when the play offs rolled around the bears laid an egg against them with Grossman throwing a couple of his now trademark interceptions. Lovie Smith's decision to stay with Grossman will end up costing the bears an appearance in the superbowl this year. Though I doubt they would have a chance against San Diego no matter who's at QB, atleast not this year.
