Lovie Smith will formally announce that Kyle Orton will be the starting quarterback for the Chicago Bears at the start of the regular season.  While he has not been spectacular at camp, he has been solid.  Rex Grossman has continued to struggle here and there with fumbled snaps and interceptions. Although, not completely his fault, Grossman looked pretty bad during the Seahawks game this past Saturday.

I’m a little excited that Orton is getting a chance to start.  He doesn’t do anything great but doesn’t make too many mistakes either and with the awful offensive line that the Bears have, that is probably a good thing.  Two more things that may come out of Orton being named QB1 is hopefully more Kyle Orton drunk pictures on the net and more neck beard.
