In my opinion, that's got a lot to do with Rex Grossman being quarterback. In fact, before he showed up, I can't recall the Bears ever being a deep-ball team, mostly because they had no one who could throw one. The only chance Grossman has of sticking in the league is if he learns to look for the underneath stuff, not panic in the pocket, and get a whole lot better at putting touch on his throws.
And obviously it would help if he had some more consistent options at wideout. I know a lot of Bears fans have been clamouring the past couple years to see more of Mark Bradley, but with the likelihood that the Bears lose Berrian, combined with the release of Muhammad... There's a good chance the Bears go into next year looking even worse at WR.
