Will Brunell still be around after Sunday's game?

Depends on what Gibbs sees on the tapes.

Maybe Ramsey is worse.

Repeat: Gibbs will not start Brunnell out of loyalty, or a death-wish to lose. If Ramsey can play better, he will start.

Because a chancge HAS to be made. This is the most inept offensive I have seen in many, many years. And that's too bad, considering what a great RB we have.

If Brunell struggles and cant make completions, we must save him for the next game :^o

, might as well see what PR can do.

I would love to see Hasselbeck come in and do something.
I remember last year he came out and launched nothing but deep ones. I think he completed a good number back then.

Gibbs is in a tough situation in regards to Brunell, gave up alot for him now he stinks, I think he's keeping him in there because he feels he has to. It might be hard for him to swallow that he made a mistake in getting Brunell. Time will surely tell if this was a bonehead move.

How many times did Gibbs hang onto a player because it was hard for him to admit he'd made a mistake? How many players did he start for that reason? How many of them were at QB?

Gibbs does nothing for appearance.

Brunell's doing nothing for his appearance, on the field anyway.

Gibbs has never had to give up soo much for a player as he did for Brunell. Not playing him or cutting him hurts the team financially like no other player Gibbs has ever had to bench or release. This is the salary cap era, no Jack Kent Cook bank account to sign any player, or for that matter cut any player til you find the one that fits. He sold the farm to get Brunell, very bad move, he is forced to play him for that reason.

Yes, we overpaid for Brunell. Apparently Mark can no longer play in this league. I it for him and I it for Gibbs. I have grown tired of pleading the case for Ramsey. It's not going to happen. I have decided that I have no choice but to trust that Gibbs has a reason for not making the change. We need points to win Sunday. I don't see it happening with Mark at the helm.

I want to see Brunell fail and succeed at the sametime.

Kenyatta Jones was the starting RT when the season started Walter Rasby lined up right beside him :hmm:

got rid of both of them during the by week. Wonder if that has anything to do with a left-handed or right-handed QB

Win what excatly?? 4 maybe 5 games?? He is only averging like 150yds per game passing. His completeion percentage is around 51%, which is down 14% from last year. This maybe due to the new offense he is currently adjusting to but his numbers have to go up soon or Gibbs has no choice but to put Ramsey in there. I used to like Brunell a lot because he is normally a very acurate QB but it just hasn't been there for him yet this year. If you look at his deep balls they just are there anymore. Hopefully after this bye week the timing between him and his recievers has gotten a lot better which I believe has been a major problem for him so far this year. Another thing I hope Brunell and the coaching staff worked on was that fact that Brunell seems to only look at one side of the field when he is in the pocket. That has to change or nothing that was stated above will improve and Ramsey will be in sooner rather than later. Which I would like to see!
