Griese comes into the game and throws a pick six on the first play against the Lions. After all the bitching and chanting to put in Griese, what will the fans do when they realize he's not any good either?
Or similiarly, Griese plays well against the Lions, tricks the fans into thinking he is their Super Bowl savior, and then sucks it up down the stretch, missing the playoffs.
After leading the Bears through the playoffs, Griese tears his ACL while winning the NFC Championship and is out for the year. Who do they start in the Super Bowl? Do they go back to the shattered confidence of Wrecks Grossman or the drunken, neck-bearded Orton. (He'll always have a neck beard to me).
Griese leads the Bears to a mediocre 7-9 for the next 5 years, while Grossman goes to Miami/Minnesota/Atlanta and becomes the second coming of Brett Favre.
Griese leads the Bears to a 12-4 season. However, just like Carson Palmer, he gets knocked out on the first play of the playoffs, the Bears lose the game and Griese is out until 2009. Your starting QB for the 2008 Chicago Bears? Rex Grossman!
But instead of all of that we're going to win 10 back-to-back Superbowls. Boo-yah! You heard it here first.
ReplyDeleteBurnsy's delusional. Great post, Dave. I would welcome any of those. There's a reason Griese isn't a starter. My personal favorite would be the pick-6, one of my favorite names for a sports play.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to see a QB controversy all year in Chicago. Also, the defense isn't that good anymore. Especially not with the injuries.
