September 12, 2007 - Former Bears defensive coordinator Ron Rivera supposedly told his Charger linebackers in preparing for the opener Sunday that QB Rex Grossman could be distracted by trash talking because he is "a mental midget."

LOLOL!!! Wow.......i guess that gets right to the point, hey?
I wonder how much they got into "Wreck's" head? :lol:

 

[vechenzo]

Hah! thats awesome, just one more notch on wrecks' flaw list.

 

[PackerLegend]

lol, Im glad the Bears are keeping him as there QB but they really need to do something because he easily loses games for them, but i cant complain about that, come ON REX STAY IN CHI TOWN FOR 20 MORE YEARS!

...and Brett, please keep stringing along the cheddar headed mob for another 10 years.

At least Rex gets to play at lambeau once a year. His track record there is pretty good. ***IDEA*** Maybe GB should try and trade for rex. I would bet rex's winning percentage at Lambeau is better than Bretts the past 4 or 5 years.

Um, no thanks.
I'll take Brett. He does well in the Super Bowls he's played in.
Wrecks cracks under pressure.

I thought this was about Marco Rivera at first! lol

i wounder what hes calling farve this weekend?

 

[BearDown!]

I think Ron Rivera should be more worried about why his linebackers helped let the Patriots run all over them. If the Bears had any offensive strength (when's Olsen going to play?), they would have killed the Chargers. The Packers DO have an offense, a defense, and a special teams unit. IMO, the Chargers are going to have their hands full on Sunday.

And who has thrown the most TDs on the Bears home field?

Not to take away from Farve, he was a great QB. But he has probably played there more then anyone else as well. How many years has it been that he faced them twice a year?

 

[Cdnfavrefan]

That's true. the Bears have never got a QB to last more then 2 seasons

"WAS" a great QB? Have you seen him play this season yet? He IS a great QB! And uh.............please explain to me.........where exactly is the negative in the fact that Favre has been playing for a long time? He's playing because unlike the revloving door they have in Chicago for QB's, we don't NEED one up here. Favre has been great, and still is great. So why would we replace him?

LOL thats so funny just seen this topic today.

You must have misunderstood my post. I am saying that since he played there more then any other decent QB then he should have the most TDs. There is nothing negative about him playing a long time.

I guess the "WAS" is what threw me off.
There are quite a few QB's that have played as long, or even longer in the NFL that have not thrown for over 400 touchdowns. In fact, only one other (Dan Marino) has reached that level. Just being around a long time doesn't guarentee you will throw 400 TD's. It takes alot of talent, not just time. Bart Starr, who was no slouch as a QB, played 16 seasons (Which Favre is in his 16th) for the Packers, and threw 152 touchdowns for his career. Favre is at 417 right now, and still going. Obviously there haven't been that many "decent" QB's in the NFL, or there would be alot more that at least would be CLOSE to 400 career TD's.
Favre has been the "Iron Man" of the NFL. To me, he is one of a kind.

I just found it funny that 4th and 26 was bragging bout Rex at Lambeau, so had to toss in Brett and Solider Field

Yeah I didn't realize that we were talking overall....I thought we were talking about TDs thrown at Soldier Field.

 

[cheesey]

Ok Troll! My bad!
Favre has lit Soldier Field up for quite a few TD's.
(I'm hoping he adds to it this season!)

[trippster]

I find it amusing that Brett has only played 16 games in Soldier field yet holds the all time TD record there. That is only two seasons of home games. Have Bear QB's been THAT bad???

(I stand corrected....one look at Wrecks and of course, they have been THAT bad!)
