Okay. I?m a big boy. I?m here to take my lumps. I made a big thing about how during the two weeks prior to the Super Bowl the press essentially bitch-slapped Rex Grossman something fierce, and how?without even having played the game yet?they were considering him to be one of?if not the?worst quarterback in Super Bowl history.
Yikes.
Rex didn?t do much to prove his critics wrong. I was rooting for him all the way, and the Bears were still in the game, even in the 4th quarter, but thoseOkay. I?m a big boy.

Rex didn?t do much to prove his critics wrong. I was rooting for him all the way, and the Bears were still in the game, even in the 4th quarter, but those two interceptions Grossman threw then capped off a pretty lousy game indeed. He looked bad. He played bad. I?m mean B-A-D bad.
And unfortunately for him, Grossman lived up?or down?to exactly what the press said he?d be: a guy who just isn?t up to the pressures of the big game. His fumbles, interceptions and general lackluster command pretty much guarantees his performance of being rated as one of the worst ever in Super Bowl history.
I don?t know if Grossman will ever get another Super Bowl shot, but yesterday was definitely not his day.
Sorry, Rex. I tried.
