Before the current pro football season began, the prognosticators were confidently saying Carolina would be dominant in the NFC, the Dolphins would be resurgent in the AFC, Rex Grossman was a bust for the Bears, and the Buccaneers would ride the arm of Chris Sims to gridiron glory (or at least respectability). Well, two weeks into the season, the Panthers, Miami, and Tampa Bay are searching desperately for their passing games (and wins), and Grossman’s Bears have an offense reminiscent of Joe Montana’s Niners. Yes, it’s still early, but it’s not too early to say, “That’s why they play the games.”
