Hmm...I'm not quite ready for the monastery yet (my robe needs to be dry cleaned) but I am majorly upset at what happened today. The Bears were playing like they were comatose, turning over the ball umpteen times before I couldn't dare to watch anymore. Alot of it is Rex Grossman, who has never played this many games in an NFL season before, and it shows. He's extremely talented, and can make the kinds of throws I have only seen Brett Farve make before (unfortunately I grew up watching Mr. Farve thread the needle more often than I wanted to) and consequently has a very good chance of being the best QB in the NFL. I don't think that this is entirely a bad thing as now some of the hype and focus will leave the Bears and they can go about their business playing football, and winning. They're still the best team in the NFL IMHO, they just aren't as good as the 85 Bears were, and that was too much to expect anyway. The only way they could play that well is if this guy returned from heaven to the backfield:

Greatest. Football. Player. Ever.
