I understand that Rex is the quarterback, and many of the plays heavily depend on him. But I still feel that people just need to give him a break and lay off him a little. After all, it is a TEAM EFFORT, not just the quarterback's effort.
Rex got the criticism all season.........and I know he is not gonna stop hearing now, especially after the Super Bowl. What do you think?

I honestly thought he looked terrible. He did nothing to hekp his team. But I also think you're right. The biggest reason the bears lost is the Colts completely and totally dominated them up front. The Colts OL completely humiliated the Bears DL....it was UGLY. I had a feeling that would happen...the bears DL was over rated all season.
It was an over rated defense. They had good numbers...at least early...but they were against crap teams that couldn't score. And I am sorry....but Brian Urlacher is among the most over rated players I;ve ever seen. He is not the force they make him out to be. He looked TERRIBLE yesterday. I remember a game against the Eagles...and Chad lewis...who was a terrible blocker.....was putting Urlacher's face in the dirt the entire game.

While I do agree that it is a team effort, and shortly after halftime it appeared that the bears' defense gave up, then the offense in the third quarter, I also think that Rex might be looking for a new job in the near future. Just as that whiny, yells-at-his-teammates, poor sport Manning got all the credit, Rex is going to shoulder all the blame.
This isn't the only sport that uses this method of blame-casting - look at professional baseball. The pitcher that starts the game gets the credit/blame for the win/loss, regardless of how the rest of the team (including the closing pitchers) plays.
I think this is a pretty poor way of analyzing the games in both sports, and credit/blame should be cast where due. Not a small part of it is due to the sportscasters that choose to "beat the dead horse" and yak on and on about the quarterbacks or pitchers, as if their performance is the only one that counts.

Well it was not Rex Grossman that played at the the Super Bowl. It was The Bears. They are a team. And just like they can take a win as team i think that they should take a loss the same way. If they didn't win it was because they as a group didn't work hard enough to get it. Like coaches on tv say all the time they have to want it more that the other team. I guess they didn't want it bad enough.

I think Grossman will unfairly take a lot of the blame for last night's loss. He did throw a couple of killer INT's but that wasn't him out there on defense letting the Colts go up and down the field.
The Bears lost because their defense didn't show up. Indianapolis kept getting 5-8 yards on every play, and it added up to a lot of long drives. Grossman will take the blame because he's an easy target, but anyone who watched that game knows the defense let the team down.

provide him some slack, I propose yeah he did no longer look at stable as final 365 days its the 1st game he has to get extra practice in, and that's grimy to communicate to him as Rex. specific Rex form of.....you be attentive to with the large Bowl and all ,yet i think of he nonetheless has potential. He reported Dec. thirtieth simply by fact the Bears faces the Saints that day.

No, I feel that he deserved it. He is the quarterback of a team that made it to the Superbowl and he can't even manage to take a snap??? He was horrible and the team couldn't do anything offensively if the quarterback couldn't even field the ball from the center.

I dont' know. He looked pretty bad last night.
He had a kind of deer in the headlights thing goin on.
Although, his recievers dropped a few balls they should of caught.
