Grossman is terrible but I don't really hold it aganist him. Like Matty said the D is the reason they won 15 games and it was a main reason they lost the SB. Also getting a pass is Lovie. They had a better option. There is not a person on this planet who an convince me that Grossman is even remotely as good as Griese. Is Griese great? No, but Grossman is THE WORST starting QB in the league and everyone knows it. Griese was annoited the job in camp before ever proving he could do the job. I remember thinking 'Why does everyone think Grossman is gonna be anything other than a average QB at best?' He hadn't done anything and he wasn't even a great QB in college. It was like everyone was like 'Yay we don't have to play Orton anymore. Now we can play Grossman who is better.' Problem with that statement is that Orton isn't even a NFL level QB. They had a guy on the bench who has won a lot of games in this league. He is still young and by all accounts hasn't forgotten how to play so why the hell they thought Grossman was a better option than Griese is beyond me.
