His O-line managed to make some good plays that covered his behind and the D-line managed to make some great plays that turned the tide.

One game, hell, he can look absolutely magnificent one PLAY but the next play he'll throw a pick or fumble and he's screwed for the rest of the game. IMHO Orton will be a fantastic QB if Coach Smith gives him some snaps in real games. Maybe not the next Joe Montana but definitely a very good QB.
I doubt Bears fans think Coach Smith is a moron. I saw the questions and thought they were a crock of doo-doo, too. The biggest problem with Grossman is he's inconsistent...period. I'd rather have a decent QB who can consistently make Ok plays than one who can sometimes make great plays and most of the time make crappy plays. Grossman makes a crappy throw and he worries about it the rest of the game. Look at Montana (since I mentioned him already)...how many interceptions did he throw? Not many, but when he did, he forgot about them and focused on the next play. Grossman gets inside his own head too much and spends more time worrying about the last play instead of focusing on the next play. He's worthless and he should be let go.
