That picture just reminds me how hideous the outside of Soldier Field is.

So who will run the first offense? My guess is Grossman for this game but Orton for opening week.

+1 - I figure they will flip flop next week and whoever starts the third one will be the chosen one.

It will be interesting to see if any shines on offense. I'm hoping Forte looks good running the ball.

Favre will be running the offense.

7:56 p.m. Kyle Orton will start Thursday's exhibition against the Chiefs, Lovie Smith said after practice. Rex Grossman will start the team's second preseason game against Seattle as the even and open competition continues.

I'm guessing this won't be televised here in LA.

Where can I catch the game?

Lovie Smith wrote:"Don't look into any of these decisions that we've made right now," Smith said. "It's a starting spot, and there's no rhyme or reason as to why we're going this direction. It's just the way I want to go right now."

This strike anyone as...well, sad?

Just about an hour away from kickoff. Can't wait to see how Forte does in game situations.

Come on Tillman

ChronicKerr · Post #16 » by **ChronicKerr** » Fri Aug 8, 2008 12:12 am

Well the defense looks bad to start

ChronicKerr · Post #17 » by **ChronicKerr** » Fri Aug 8, 2008 12:13 am

Nice rush Mark A.

Defense looks a bit sloppy, but this is to be expected for the first preseason game.

D-Bowe is damn good.

SportsWorld · Post #20 » by **SportsWorld** » Fri Aug 8, 2008 12:16 am

Yeah I'm not too concerned yet since it is the first preseason game. Could use a stop here on 3rd down though.
