Bears QB Rex Grossman probably played the worst game of his professional life with four interceptions and two fumbles during Monday night's game against the Arizona Cardinals. People often forget that because of injuries, Grossman has played less than one year of professional football to date, so he is still prone to making rookie-type mistakes. He is neither as bad as he appeared last night nor as good as he has played in previous games. Grossman said it best in the Bears’ post-game press conference: “We’ve got a whole bye week to talk about how bad I played.”
Cardinals’ QB Matt Leinart, on the other hand, looked like he’s played in the NFL for years. This was only his second professional start, but you wouldn’t know it by the way he played. He threw for 194 years, two touchdowns and no interceptions. He has a poise and confidence far beyond his years. The Cardinals deserved a better fate perhaps, but as not-so-good teams do, they found a way to lose.
