The Bears held the powerful Titans rushing attack to 20 yards. 20 yards! And still lost the game, 21-14.
The defense has been vulnerable against the pass all year and was again today as Kerry Collins completed 30 of 41 passes for 289 yards and 2 TD’s.
But the offense ultimately cost the Bears this game.
Sexy Rexy had his first start at quarterback this season. And it was awful, as usual.
Why is he still on the Bears roster?
Grossman was 20-37 for 173 yards with 1 TD and 1 INT.
He missed wide-open receivers all game.
This loss pains me because it was such a winnable game. The past 3 or 4 games I was confident the offense could drive down the field and score points with Orton under center.
While watching the game today I had no confidence in Grossman to move the offense downfield, and he didn’t.
Grossman had 20 yards passing in the second and third quarters combined. 20 yards passing in two quarters? Is that a joke.
And what about the running game. Forte has 64 yards rushing at halftime, and only 8 in the second half.
He only got seven carries in the second half while getting thirteen in the first.
Why did Ron Turner abandon the running game?
Part of it has to do with the Titans having a great front seven. But still, I knew the Bears weren’t going to win the game with Grossman throwing the ball 37 times.
Lovie Smith was distraught and disappointed when conducting his post game interview.
Lovie said “it was a bad loss, especially when you lose on your home turf.”
Thatta baby Lovie, not making any excuses for Rex or the team.
Let’s all hope that Orton can get healthy this week for the big game at Lambeau next Sunday.

Ya, we don't have a chance of beating anyone w/ Rex in at qb. He is just one of the most inaccurate qb's in football and he's gonna hurt the Bears. We need Orton back.
