Rexual Healing

After years of suffering through offenses that call to mind the phrase "spastic colon," Rex Grossman is literally healing me. I continue to be delighted that the 2006 Chicago Bears can actually run, throw, and catch. You'd think that all football players could do that, but if you did, you wouldn't be a Bears fan. Bears can only hit, tackle, bleed--and eventually lose.

But now we have an offense! In celebration of this novel feeling (as short-lived as history suggests it might be), I provide the following smattering of Bears coverage, in the wake of their 37-6 drubbing of the Seahawks.

Rick Telander.

Rick Morrissey.

Before you ask: no, this defense is not as good as the 1985/86 squad. Those guys changed how defense was played. This year's team is a really, really good version of the so-called "Tampa 2."
