[QUOTE="Illiniaaron, post: 1285764, member: 29101"] Well I hope you aren't serious about that because you've always been a thoughtful poster that usually makes some pretty good points, but I can see where you're coming from. I agree the Glennon signing is not very exciting. The Bears put themselves in this position by never bringing in a backup that was ever a threat to unseat Cutler or draft a qb that they could develop. When Pace finally made the decision that it was time to move on from Cutler, it came in a year when the qb class is fairly weak with this draft, and there were not a lot of good free agent options out there. I think they are saying Glennon's guaranteed money is $19.5 million so I think the Bears are even viewing this as a low-risk temporary move. If he comes in and plays well it's a good signing. If he doesn't the money isn't so big that they can't start over again next year. I know that's not what fans want to hear but that's where we're at. [/QUOTE]
