Grossman's made some shitastic throws.&nbsp;

<p>This game is giving me so much joy right now.</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

[kellermcgee21]

<p>the bears can't rely on grossman they need their defense and special teams to be stellar to make up for any mistakes he might make....if benson hadn't been injured they could have pounded the run and not relyed on grossman too much</p>

Did anyone else find the challenge about 12 men on the field to be somehow poor sportsmanship?&nbsp; I went into the game tonight sorta rooting for Peyton to get a ring already.&nbsp; I generally enjoy his twitchy antics.&nbsp; But the opening return for a TD + the challenge had me rooting for the Bears.&nbsp; I think it's one thing (a clever thing really) to play at catching the other team with 12 men on the field, but to call a challenge on it... just well, kind of stinks.&nbsp; Smacks of playing the rulebook instead of the game.

[Bulldogcakes]

<p>Now thats two stright years of some of the most incompetant football I've ever seen in the leagues big showcase game. Last year w/Pittsburgh, this year with the Bears. Grossman doesn't belong in the NFL as a 2nd string QB, much less a starter on a super bowl team. He couldn't even recieve the snaps for most of the 3rd quarter. Somehow Manning managed to, despite the rain. </p><p>Dont tell me Grossman didn't lose this game, I'm not buying it for a second. A QB plays a modestly competant game withy minimal mistakes and its a completely different ballgame. He was directly responsible for 4 of the 5 turnovers. I didn't see the final stats, but as of late in the 4th qtr, he threw for 80 yards. Thats putrid. Granted, they couldn't stop the run, but the Bear defense was on the field for almost the entire game.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p> <span class="post_edited"></span>

<p><span class="postbody">Was Grossman responsible for 4 of the 5? Yes.</span></p><p>No he wasn't. One fumble was lost on a kickoff and another was lost when Benson was creamed on a hand off.

He wasn't completely responsible for the Colts offense moving the Chicago defense up and down the field with ease all night long. </p>

Also, in the future, I think the Super Bowl MVP award should be optional. If someone goes out there and earns it, fine. But I don't think there was anyone who stood out enough this year or last year. Manning won it by default, if the Colts had one primary RB he would have earned it but Rhodes and Addai split the numbers. Calling anyone a MVP in last year's abortion of a game was a crime.

Did anyone else notice how subdued the Colts celebration was? Other then the Gatorade bath everyone walked on the field like they won a game against Houston in Week 7. They acted like they've done it before..... except they hadn't. Maybe it was more of a relief to the team than anything else.
