Brunell gets the nod for the Cowpukes game....

Hmmm.... Let's see, 3 series, 1 int. and 1 fumble. Nice stats for a qb who is SUPPOSSED to know what he is doing in his 2nd season under the same system. I expected to see Pram in the preseason light it up, but no, even against 2nd string he struggled, so its no surprise to see this. After all these years of watching the skins i would expect some of you fellows to know a crap qb when u see one. Lord knows i have seen enough in the last 10yrs., and Pram can most definitely be added to this list.

I believe Gibbs said something about Brunell being hurt last year and after the Bears game he said he was not warmed up.
I believe Brunell only needed to make a few short passes to get first downs. He did not need to throw the ball deep at all. I think it was more playcalling than Brunell's ability.

I guess we will just have to wait and see on Monday.

I still have faith in Gibbs decision and would have if he went with Ramsey. My 2 cents

series #1 - interception
series #2 - fumble(but recovered)
series #3 - wether a TD was called back or not... he then fumbled, again...

even if he scored that touchdown... it doesn't make up for all those costly or almost costly turnovers... Dallas would have turned those turnovers into points...

can Brunell do it... I don't know... I'm just saying, there's nothing that you can say that makes me think that Gibbs is overwhelmingly making a wrong decision by sitting Ramsey in place of Brunell....

Yeah, but you could tell Ramsey was just finding his groove. And that last fumble was stupid because he closelined in the neck.

And now that Ramsey has asked to be traded, it seems as though Brunell will be the QB for the year, and that just bothers me. Brunell can not hit WRs while they are moving so that takes away the big plays Moss had with Ramsey yesterday and he can't lead the team down the field. Yesterday it was all Portis.

Is this NOT EXACTLY WHAT THE MEDIA WANTS?????? I can see fat lenny pastabelly and all those a$$holes that write junk about the skins laughing hard at this. I'm sure it is only a matter of time before the articles start flying. All of this crap is never going to stop until we get some stability.

Because no one really wants to gift rap the 1st overall pick in the 2006 draft for Denver. If Campbell gets in there we may only win one or two games after that and that would only be if the defense scores. Of course that might only be 2 or 3 games worse then Brunell playing. God I hope I'm wrong, but the season is toast!
