You could see his frustration from the t.v. view. But I'm not too worried about him. He's still going to get a ton of touches and do his thing. Everyone is allowed an off day (so we should all stop drawing enormous conclusions from such small sample sets -- not a jab at you, just the reactionary mentality of a sports fan).

I do realize that this thread was started to settle an argument from Gameday, and I'm not trying to take away from that. Fight away :)

I guess those who in the preseason wanted to dump Grant need to take a step back. I am glad GB has both of them (Plus Green.)

I don't fault Starks for his poor showing. He was hit in the backfield a few times. Other times there was no hole for him at all. it was almost as if the Bears thought he would be the primary runner and keyed on him more than they did Grant.

Grant always seems to play well against the Bears. Maybe he just hates them more than Starks does. After all.... He has been around this rivalry longer. 😉

James didn't appear to me to have very much to work with. Even though a couple of times he may have been able to bounce out or cut inside the tackler and gain a few more yards. I'm glad we have both him and Grant. Hopefully, at least one of them will be "on" every game.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

In the game day chat we had a disagreement over how many fumbles Stark had in college.

I know there is a website or two that fail to list any fumbles for him.

He did however have 12 according to this site.

I have been wrong before, just ask my wife, but it doesn't seem to be the case this time.

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : uh oh

Martha Careful (1-Apr) : Too bad camera's can't spot the ball as well.

Mucky Tundra (1-Apr) : So will the chain gang be gone completely or will they still be around as a backup or whatever?

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : Touchbacks on kickoffs will now bring the ball to the 35-yard line.

beast (31-Mar) : It might of gotten more popular recently, but braiding hair (even men) in certain cultures goes back for centuries.
