i'm with you -- but just remember, it's not that we get in trouble when the game gets "put on grossman's shoulders," -- the game is in trouble when he gets asked to attempt 11 passes without throwing three interceptions.

That's not putting the game on his shoulders, that's just asking him to try to not singlehandedly LOSE the game.

I'm going to get blasted before the game Sunday so that it won't hurt so bad if he screws up.

Oh, I'm not worried about his playoffs LAST year, I'm worried about him being a douchebag and showing up with a game similar to the Miami/Arizona/Minnesota/Green Bay game for one. That's four games this year that he was ATROCIOUS in. Sure, there are four games this year he was incredible in -- but they were in like weeks 1,2,3,4. The other days he's just average, don't notice him either way.

If he plays like a jackass like those any of those four games, we lose...and we lose bad because Seattle will make us pay for it.

All I ask is that he just doesn't give the game away.

The Seahawks simply aren't that good this year...they were in essence outplayed by a struggling Cowboy team last week. If the Bears lose this game, they have serious issues beyond Grossman. The test should come next week playing the winner of the other game. Compared to the AFC games, these games are like the International League compared to MLB. The biggest shock to me would be that whomever comes out of this 4 team NFC scrum isn't absolutely destroyed by whomever wins the AFC.
