Re: What!!!? Brunell to the Falcons?
 

I say if ATL wants him,they can have him and good riddance,if JC goes down were screwed anyway cause MB sucks,isnt he coming off shoulder surgery? If MB's not here we dont have to worry about Gibbs pulling JC out of the 1st game at halftime and sticking in brunell,and if you dont think thats a possibility you havent been watching the same Gibbs that I've been watching with his major stiffy for MB,I think you people are forgetting WE WERE THE ONLY TEAM THAT WANTED HIM 3 FRICKIN YEARS AGO!!! overpaid for his sorry ass then because of Gibbs stiffy,please,please,Atlanta take him

You must be a bitter Ramsey fan...LOL...and Ramsey was pulled because he sucked balls. Evidenced by his inability to beat out a rookie with the Jets last year for the backup spot.
Brunnell while not great is the only Redskins QB that has helped us to the 2 round of the playoffs in 15 years. So he has not been a total waste.

[quote=offiss;333841]Not because Brunell was let go, the reason people would start crying is because we have no experienced backup capable of really leading the team that we know of right now, yes people would start crying if Campbell get's hurt, but most would shoot themselves if either Brunell or Collins see the field again.[/quote]

The most important characteristic in a backup quarterback is their ability to step in seamlessly and still execute the offense. Typically the 2nd stringer comes in, and the rest of the offense is wary of him. Do you think our offense would be wary of Mark under center. You're crazy if you do. That being said, no one wants their 2nd stringer to see multiple games. So lets hope JC stays standing.

This thread sucks, because anyone that actually thought for a second we were going to make this move is delusional.

Re: What!!!? Brunell to the Falcons?
 

god i would give the falcons a draft pick to take him. So gibbs wont be tempted to use him again.

Honestly, if you are paid to evaluate them and you come to this conclusion, what good are you to your organization?

Anyway, needless to say, I think you just pulled this out of your ass. Aaron Brooks' rep around the league is not good.

Better QBs than Brunell are out there, but unless you want to go the Culpepper route, they are going to cost a lot more than we are paying Campbell.

Can you really name 15 or 16 better backups in the NFL?
He's not the best backup, but he's better than average. (thus the 15 or 16 better back ups)

Mark Brunell
Brad Johnson
Chris Simms
David Carr
Joey Harrington
Brian Griese
Brooks Bollinger
Gus Frerotte
Seneca Wallace
Kurt Warner
Trent Dilfer
Brady Quinn
Charlie Batch
Kyle Boller (maybe)
David Garrard
Jim Sorgi
Tim Rattay
Sage Rosenfels
Kellen Clemens
Craig Nall
Billy Volek
Billy Joe Tolliver
Billy Joel
Bill Nye the Science Guy
Jerry Porter (just ask him!)
The Saints' Waterboy
Aaron Carter (but not Quincy Carter)
and Patrick Ramsey

So no, I don't think Brooks is a top half backup. I don't really think he has any business left in this league, no matter what Pete Prisco says.

OOOOH, wait a minute...I thought he was saying Brunell, not Brooks.
Brunell is a top 5 or 6 backup...Brooks shouldn't even be 3rd string.

When I first started reading those name, I was like, damn this guy hates brunell, and he's on drugs. LOL.
For as much as I don't want Brunell as my starter, I like him as a backup.
