The news is in. Chicago Bears @ Minnesota Vikings. A rivalry game on Monday night football, the Bears are playing for pride on national television.
It was announced that KYLE ORTON is to start for the Bears in this game. Bear fans have been waiting for this. I think it's a good move. I still think that REX GROSSMAN is the best QB for this team, and was improving.
However, he went out of Thrursday's game with an injury. The dilema began. GRIESE VS. ORTON. It's time for a new face on the field. Griese was more than dissapointing in a failed comeback last week, and the Bears had a chance if GROSSMAN wouldn't have gotten injured.
Kyle Orton is that new face. He led the team to the playoffs in 2005 taking over for Rex Grossman, and was a good QB with help from the "D".
The Bears are out of it, but I'm actually excited to see Orton start. Monday night in the Metrodome, which isn't as tough as it used to be. Hopefully Devin Hester can run one back, too.
