You have to give Grossman a fair shot. I think he could really pan out

Grossman IMO no doubt.

If he gets hurt, Griese is in, obviously. I heard (maybe Adam Schein) on Sirius NFL the other day say that "Griese is the best backup in football," and I liked that a lot. I think it's pretty accurate.

I think Orton is the odd man out, though. He held the fort down last year, but he didn't do anything remotely close to good, and lost the job when Rex came back.

Brian Griese completed 6-of-7 passes for 134 yards and two touchdowns in Chicago's preseason opener vs. San Francisco Friday night.

Griese found Rashied Davis on a 41-yard bomb for a score and TE Gabe Reid in the redzone for another six points. Rex Grossman fumbled twice and missed on 8-of-11 passes.

I would imagine Grossman will be given the chance to succeed.

I expect it to be Grossman for the beginning of the season regardless of his preseason play.

The insurance is there, in Griese, but it's not going to come to that until Grossman starts losing them games IMO

Grossman until he inevitably gets hurt.

Griese will be next in line, as Orton seems to have proven he only looks good sitting on the bench.

Krenzel is one smart kid.

I forget what he majored in, but it's some crazy smart person stuff.

Griese. 5-0 with the Bucs until injury. He is a proven winner.
