whitem0nkey Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 he is named the starter, I don't have link, there was a press conference just minutes ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Swerski Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 Interesting. That must mean that Blake has looked really bad in practice. I wonder what Grossman thinks about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chavez Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 Unsurprising; my grandmammy is a better NFL prospect than Hutchinson or Kittner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Man Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 At least now I can move Muhammad back up into my top 30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DexterDew Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 here a link to the Bears' web site: http://www.chicagobears.com/news/newsDetail.jsp?id=10204 I'm guessing Muhammad rises a bit, but still not in my top 30, unless Orton locks on to him 10 times a game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitem0nkey Posted August 28, 2005 Author Share Posted August 28, 2005 ok so the bears need to break out the pittsburg blue print.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pope Flick Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 They need Benson now. The Bears have a true shot at respectability if they can put out an O that will just chew some clock to keep the D fresh into the 4th quarter. The D will be a monster. The O monstrously bad potentially. I'm sure Blake needs more time with the playbook. Anyone know why they bagged Krenzel last year? He at least won some games....

McNasty Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 I still have yet to draft, and haven't seen this kid play, yet. Anyone have any insight on him? I think he's only played against second-stringers, right? Does he look poised? How are his reads? Quick release? Accurate? Obviously, I wouldn't want to go into the season with him starting for me, but does he look worth a reach as a back-up, or to early to tell?

RussMan Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 ok so the bears need to break out the pittsburg blue print.. 953098[/snapback] Rookie QB starting... that not respectable.. that will be tragic. LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Swerski Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 They need Benson now. 953099[/snapback] Not sure about that. Jones has been tearing it up against first-string defenses and with Hutch under center this pre-season. On the other hand, Benson has yet to do anything in the NFL. The only way they'd "need" him right now is if Jones was injured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitem0nkey Posted August 28, 2005 Author Share Posted August 28, 2005 Rookie QB starting... that not respectable.. that will be tragic. LOL. 953111[/snapback] well they have a defense equal to Pitt, we have a great line, good run game....Oh I say PLAAAAAAAAAYOFFS!!!!!! And once Benson will play watch out NFL here come the bears....... The bears will not be hibernating!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocknrobn26 Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 I still have yet to draft, and haven't seen this kid play, yet. Anyone have any insight on him? I think he's only played against second-stringers, right? TRUE Does he look poised? YES How are his reads? DECENT, considering Quick release? Very Accurate? Good, his TD toss to ClarkFriday was great!Obviously, I wouldn't want to go into the season with him starting for me, but does he look worth a reach as a back-up, or to early to tell? 953104[/snapback] 113.4 quarterback rating on Friday. I'm not convinced that he will be the opening day starter. This last game against the Browns, could turn out to be a showcase for ready-to-be-cut-players, so it's not really the acid test. But if the Bear discussion w/ him was 'it' yours to lose', then he may well start the opener. Ya gotta give the Bears one thing.....they make headlines, good or bad!

On the other hand, Benson has yet to do anything in the NFL. The only way they'd "need" him right now is if Jones was injured. 953169[/snapback] Well I think given the QB situation they need as many offensive weapons as possible. Even with a healthy Jones they still need Benson cuz Jones isn't a pounder. And they'll need that to keep the D fresh.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darin3 Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 Equal to Pittsburgh? The Huddle doesn't think so, but bring on the season and we'll see. 953193[/snapback] Fantasy-wise, sure. Don't think we were talking about pure fantasy worth here, though. Chicago's D will be solid... not a great fantasy D, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donutrun Jellies Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 well they have a defense equal to Pitt, 953172[/snapback] Okay, that was funnier than the line about the grandmammy .... (Though I do have Chicago lined up as a bye week filler possibility on DEF.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
