rizzy Posted August 30, 2005 Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2005/foot...n.ap/index.htmlJeff Blake is now the backup QB. Wow I bet jeff starts a couple games this year for them they way they are going with QBS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BengalsFanForever Posted August 30, 2005 Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 From starter to cut in a matter of days. Too funny. I live outside of Chicago, and I would have to say he isn't a fan favorite up here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
semiotter Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 Now with a rookie QB at the helm I think we will see BLAKE sometime soooooooooooon. :player: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC_Bengals_Fan Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 Now with a rookie QB at the helm I think we will see BLAKE sometime soooooooooooon. :player:I'm not so sure about that. The Bears are going nowhere this year, and if they don't realize that, they're idiots. Blake is old, used, and broke. They have a QB in Orton who has a chance to actually be decent for the future, in case things don't work out with Grossman. Grossman hasn't shown he's that fantastic, and the guy hasn't been on the field for more than 15 consecutive seconds during his career without getting injured.If Lovie has any sense - and believes management has enough confidence in him - he keeps Orton under center.

The_Next_Big_Thing Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 Orton just may be good enough to make it work by midseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Who? Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 I really like Orton, I was hoping the Browns would draft him, a few draft people thought he was one of the most complete QB's in the draft I thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Next_Big_Thing Posted August 31, 2005 Report Share Posted August 31, 2005 If Orton is half as good as Kyle Boller, Da Bears will be ok. They have a brutal running game, a decent line, and a good defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
