A dicey decision for Bears?

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

Apparently this Bears' quarterback competition between Rex Grossman and Kyle Orton really is a tossup. (Can't you feel the tension building?)

On Wednesday, Grossman literally won a coin flip that determined who got to work with the first team on the first day of practice. The two QBs will now alternate days working with the first team.

Reports didn't say who flipped the coin, but given their track record of catching the ball, I'm guessing it wasn't a Bears' wide receiver. Unless, of course, he was instructed to let it fall to the ground.

Given the team's quarterback history, maybe the coin flip isn't such a bad way to go. In fact, coach Lovie Smith might want to try doing it weekly to determine his starter.
