NFL Football Season 2008- 09
Favorite Players by Team
NFC - Chicago Bears
Rex Grossman
If by potential we mean nervous, unpredictable, unreliable, up-and-down, shaky, vexing, bizarre passing abilities, then yeah, he’s still loaded with potential, we love Grossman.
Perhaps most people have moved on from this thought, but there are still the deep-drilling analysts who point out that because Grossman (who turns 28 in August) missed virtually all of his first three seasons with injury, he’s still a work in progress.
The bottom line is, the guy has been participating in NFL offseason programs for six years.
He’s been a part of the pro sports culture for that long as well.
Grossman started 16 games in 2006, plus two playoff contests and the Super Bowl.
What’s more, Grossman is one of the few players in football who may actually regress with experience.
His errors have not strictly been the results of bad reads and innocence (though he’s more than proven himself in this sense); they’re also the result of terrible habits and focus.
