Bears Have Some Options At QB
14th August, 2005 - 6:32 pm
Kyle Trompeter/RealGM - When a football team goes four starting quarterbacks over the course of a 16 game season, then there is a problem.

Now with Grossman out for 2005, the Bears turn to backups Hutchinson, Orton, Kittner and Dinwiddie to steer the Chicago ship in the right direction.

CHAD HUTCHINSON: Originally slated to begin the season as the number two quarterback on the depth chart. He led the Bears in TD passes last year with four. Hutchinson looked more than adequate in leading the offense at the end of last year, and would have done better if it weren?t for a horrendous offensive line that gave him no time to throw. Hutchinson has a very strong arm that is quite accurate.

KYLE ORTON: The rookie will most likely make the team as the third quarterback. Threw for 31 TD?s vs. only 5 INT?s as a senior at Purdue last year. Known for his very strong arm, Orton may have a future with this team and with Grossman down becomes the #2 QB.

KURT KITTNER: Playing this past season in NFL Europe, Kittner lead Amsterdam to the Europe World Title. Played under Ron Turner at the University of Illinois. He has to really open some eyes with spectacular play if he wants to make this team.

RYAN DINWIDDIE: Gained some experience last season with the Hamburg Sea Devils NFLEL. Like Kittner, Dinwiddie doesn?t have much of a chance to make the team. [READ]
