I thought Brunell played well today and appreciated his being there, but to say he made no mistakes is total crap. He was lucky to have his interception called back-- it could have cost us the game and was not caused by the ragging of Santana's jersey, regardless of the ruling. He threw a long floater into double coverage and deserved the pick. He also tripped and fell without being touched during a crucial series. What was just as oafish, he threw to the one yard line on a third and goal when the receiver had no chance to get in. That's three mistakes by my count. Ramsey had one.

Fully agree. A pass to the one yard line to the ground when you need a TD is CLEARLY a mistake - and a costly one at that. Brunell was hardly blameless, and truly, we got DAMN lucky on that pass interference call.

Lucky to have the INT called back? That's easy to say from your couch. If you are running at speed and someone pulls your jersey hard enough for the shoulder pad to pop out, you will not have the same lift to go for the ball. You could clearly see Moss have to stutter step to jump for the ball and he was late getting up b/c of the penalty. Maybe he doesn't make the catch..maybe he just prevents an INT. But it was a legitimate penalty which affected the play.
After every game, every play & every highlight, I'll always remember #21. RIP Sean.
I will swtich to the 'boys game after the press conferences. I should watch to see what their D looks like. I have a wicked bad bet for that game, so the Skins better pull it off.

Coach Joe Gibbs may be throwing the season away. Putting in an UNIMPRESSIVE Mark Brunell, keeping him in, all game. Ruining the young kids confidence. As Patrick sits their, thinking about how maybe he shouldn't get injured at all ever again and avoid every injury by throwing the ball away before he gets hit so that these things dont happen because Mr. Gibbs, his boss, will take him out of the game for the year if he gets injured. As Patrick sits, there helmet on, waiting to play, waiting, waiting, then he seems Brunell smile, he forces a smile back, and knows it isn't Brunell's fault he got to play. Then later, he hears that Coach doesn't know who the starter is. Did coach not realize that one of the turnovers Ramsey had was an unsportmanlike play? The the LB that forced the turnover made a bad move, and ended up injuring Patrick Ramsey? Now doesn't this show that Mr. Gibbs has already given up on young Ramsey? That he has no confidence what so ever that the kid can do it? Taking a young QB in the FIRST round of the 2005 draft and also signing free agent Mark Brunell a while back. Patrick's confidence could be ruined, especially sense Joe Gibbs backed him all preseason and told everybody Patrick was the starter. Now, in the first week of the regualr season, takes him out because of a so called injury that he was later cleared for? Does the old ball coach really know what he is doing? This move will ignite the QB controversey talk, which will put more pressure on Ramsey IF he ever comes in this year again. It will create widespread talk on every single sports radio and tv show. It will create stupid talk that Ramsey had a bad game, which he didn't, and how could you even judge his peformance with the short time that he was in? Thats all i got guys.
it wasn't his neck it was an obvious decision to hold ramsey out. let me ask you this. would you rather see pram shine, or the washington redskin shine? i prefer the latter. with ramsey in, the offense as a WHOLE plays worse.

Sorry HS I have to respectfully disagree. It took Patrick a while to get going but when he did he was doing well. Brunnell also struggled a little. Without that dirty hit Ramsey continues and he wins this game. He was just getting better when that happened. So I guess we may never know if Gibbs doesn't back up all his off season talk about who his starter is.

Couldn't agree more on that dirt ball "Scott" threw. That was atrocious.

Hey Hailskins, long time to see.
I agree with taking Ramsey out but I disagree that the offense looks better with Brunell. Right before the clothesline, Ramsey and the Offense were looking FAR better than at any point during the game. He's simply a more accurate passer than Brunell. Whether Brunell is really better than he was last year is a different issue - but at best Brunell is a short term option. Keeping him in now would be a horrible mistake, and would probably signal the end of Ramsey with the skins.

isn't that one of the main resons everyone was bitching last year? isn't that one of the main reasons(other than the yards) that you take deep shots in todays nfl? just asking.

Actually that very well could have been the play that Moss was hurt on Wu so you have a point.

my whole thing is this is a team game. portis looked a hundred time better when the bears defense had to guess in the slightest where brunell was going to be, they didn't guess when ramsey was there.
