OK, this is my last Super Bowl related post; I’m sick of thinking about it so this will be quick.
Let’s start off by stating a couple things I thought before the game. First, the Bears would win. I was wrong. Rex would have a good game. I was wrong again.
Going into the game I thought the Bears would have to score at least 30 points to win, I was right about that. So really the defense giving up the 29 points wasn’t too big a surprise. What was a surprise was how badly the offense stunk it up, Rex’s two fumbled snaps and numerous bad decisions when passing. I say numerous because it wasn’t just the two picks I thought were bad, he floated a couple passes that were incomplete/caught by a Bears receiver so they were mostly unnoticed.
Do I think the Bears need a new QB? I’m not sure. Should the team look into other options for QB competition in camp? Yes. I read something about possibly getting Jeff Garcia or trading for David Carr. All I can say about Garcia is a lot of teams will be looking at him, and I don’t really want him to be the Bears QB. He’s too old, and I think his Philly success was more of a fluke than something to realistically expect out of him for an entire season. I really don’t know enough about Carr to have an opinion on trading for him, and right now I’m more looking forward to the Cubs season than the next Bears season.
That’s it, this blog post is over! Now comes the hard part, trying to not post on the Bears until around the draft at the end of April.
