I am truly ashamed to hear all the stuff I am hearing...As a QB when things are good so are you..when they get a little rough you are the scum of the earth...he is far from inflating himself...those that know him know that. I really have nothing else to say except way to stand behind your QB when things are down jeese..I can understand talking about his mistakes but to personally attack him is somewhat mind boggling...but I have to remmember..things will be good soon could start Sun. night.Again he does not think he will go to the NFL early...does not want to leave BUlls..and is happy with the Bulls.....just seeing what he needs to work on to get there!!!WOW!!

Who the hell is anyone on this board to judge the actions of someone playing D1 college football? Especially someone who is about the graduate and is thinking about their future. Whether he makes it or not, I get sick of some of the comments on here related to Matt Grothe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we talking about grothe? This is no different than any other qb in the nation if he is struggling, this is nothing new. He knows the role. Wins and losses fall on his shoulders most of the time, and so we can't feel sorry for him. The guy is not doing what all juniors do, and this is the end of the season, time for adjustments come after the first few games. He is struggling. If he is like 10-0 when he doesnt throw interceptions, you would think hey maybe i should throw the ball away. I hope he turns it around, but fans are allowed to talk about whatever they want.

I can see him playing another position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team has struggled this year and these people want instant gratification. I would say most rational Bulls fans see the problems across the board. I'm still in Matt's corner.Without a serious running game threat and with the current state of our offensive line I really dont see this team turning around until those issues are fixed but for people to blame Matt is just rediculous.
