Da Bears season opener

OK, to be perfectly honest I'm a little worried about our season opener against the Chargers specially cause it's in San Diego. Which Grossman will show up to the game? Will the D hold up against LT and Rivers?

We'll see.

I think Bears/Chargers will be a strength vs. strength matchup with our best unit (defense) going head-to-head with their best (offense). It should make for a great game.

I think the offense will be fine. And besides, even though he hasn't exhibited anything of the kind, I'm confident Lovie will have Rex on a short leash this year. For the second year in a row Brian Griese is outplaying Grossman in the pre-season and Lovie can't ignore the fans forever if Grossman isn't playing well.

i have a strange feeling I'm walking into enemy territory here by stating my opinion on this game but I really don't give the Bears much of a chance, I'd take the Chargers in this one without hesitation.

In saying that though it's a game I'm really looking forward to watching, esp seeing how the Bears D handles the Chargers offensive juggernaut.

thestos, I'm in your army. I also will take the Chargers without hesitation just like I will when the play the Colts in San Diego too.

If the coach makes decisions based on what the fans want, he'll be sitting with them soon....I'm sure everyone has heard that before but just thought I'd add that.

Chargers are obviously so much fun to watch.

Also, Peyton Manning's gonna wear commercials on his helmet this season I heard. He hasn't sold out enough to almost every corporation known to man...yet.

From a "gambling" perspective, I too would take the Chargers, but from a "fan" perspective GO BEARS!

excellent observation!! I'm not a bears lover or a hater but for their sake, I hope Lovie's confidence in Grossman is rewarded. Oh yeah Rexy is my QB2 in a dynasty league.....hence why I drafted Drew Stanton as my QB 3 this season.

The same Drew Stanton that is on the IR with a bad knee? Unless that's keeper league, I'd make a move if I were you thestos.
