Bears Wrap- Greise is the Word


The best thing the Bears have going for them is the Cubs success that takes attention away from the high-priced ineptitude. Same old story- small hands Rex throws ints and Benson keeps getting too high and fumbling.

What's a Lovie to do? Has the worm finally turned? Sunday night Rex was still his guy. But as of Monday morn, "every starting position will be evaluated". We'll see what Wed practice brings as far as who gets reps.

The defense was great, but now is becoming decimated by an offense that constantly leave's them out on the field. If Harris and or Briggs are out, then they can be beaten by anyone.

The truth of the matter is that they overachieved last and year and had a very, very weak division. This year finds the division much tougher and the Bears playing up to their mediocre talent.

In an interesting sidebar against the Liedowns this Sunday is the Martz factor. This could well be seen as a head coaching audition for the once genius Mike Martz. If his sorry offense can beat the vaunted Bears defense, he may well be on his way to another head coaching job.
