After the Chicago Bears split their first two pre-season games, it seems Chicago football fans insist on creating a quarterback controversy, even when there isn't one. I'm not convinced that there is a controversy -- yet. I prefer to wait until the regular season begins before I decide a QB controversy exists.
Bears QB Rex Grossman played better Friday night than the previous week, but fans still are not comfortable with his level of play. By his own admission, Grossman says he could play better, and there are still two more games to go before the regular season begins. So yes, there is still time for Grossman to improve.
On the other hand, Bears backup Brian Griese played well in both pre-season games, but is it enough to name him the number one QB for the season? Griese is an insurance policy in case Grossman goes down with an injury again.
Really, when you think about it, we have two quality quarterbacks who can start for the Bears. And seriously, isn't that a nice problem to have?
