da bears

I was talking with one of my friends about the Bears, which naturally led to the discussion about Rex Grossman. We all know that he can be a bit inconsistent, but then again, is he really?

I took a look at his split stats:

If you go all the way to the bottom of the passing stats, there's a figure that shows how he performs in close games vs. blowouts. Basically, it says that in close games (when the game is within 14 points), he sucks. If the game is a blowout (15+ points), Rex is awesome. It also looks like he loves to throw interceptions when there's pressure (either when the Bears are behind or when the Bears are on their side of the field).

To sum it all up, Rex will self-destruct whenever the team is behind in a game. Something needs to be done about this.
