Change in QB? Rex or Griese?
Rex Grossman still had his health when he walked off the field. But he may not have his starting job much longer after his latest meltdown.Grossman threw three interceptions as the Chicago Bears fell to the Dallas Cowboys 34-10 on Sunday night, and he did not get a vote of confidence from his coach a day later. Now, the question is: Will he start this week at Detroit?
“Will Rex Grossman start Sunday?” coach Lovie Smith asked on Monday, repeating the question. “Well, our evaluation process is going on right now, and if you come out to practice Wednesday, you’ll have a better idea of who will be starting at all positions.”
Has Smith made a decision?
“I’m always thinking ahead,” he said.
Smith gave his usual answer when asked Sunday night about Grossman — “Rex Grossman is our quarterback” — but his tone was different on Monday, fueling speculation Brian Griese might start Sunday against Detroit.
Grossman’s supporters would have a hard time arguing against the move, considering he ranks 23rd in the league with 500 yards, has a 45.2 rating and is 47-of-89 (52.8 percent) with a league-leading six interceptions and just one touchdown.
But is Griese the answer?
