I cant get the clips to show here at work. getting general erros even though i ahve installed and uninstalled real player a few times.. but i am glad campbell and ramsey look good coach gibbs likes to have a starter in waiting at QB that's why he went and got Brunnell to start with.

[QUOTE=davy]Good man Matty, I thought I was alone in pulling for Brunell to bounce back, he has been a solid pro his entire career and I'm not gonna give up on him because of one bad year.[/QUOTE]

One bad year with an offense around him that certainly didn't help the issue any.

I also think his hammy after the 1st Giants game bothered him more than he let on.

Not only that, we HAD to have some kind of scapegoat! :)

I think it's time to start watching the highlight films again. Those always get me pumped. Anyone who wants them just PM me.

Watching those films really makes me miss having Coles. I LOVE the way the guy plays. My favorite play he made all year was that first down catch he made where Lito Shepard or someone knocks the hell out of him and he stands up and dances halfway down the field with the first down sign. Classic moments.

ok. if Brunell gets into a game next year and blows it (say, against ....Dallas) for us like he did on several occasions last year, EVERYONE on this forum will be calling for his nuts on a platter and screeching for him to be replaced and the "hoping for a bounceback year" will be a distant, off-season memory. I still have echoes of all the Redskins fans hollering in my ears last year at Hollywood Billiards, crying for the posse to take Marky to the scaffold after a couple of fumbles, errant off target passes and a few bad picks :Flush: And finally, how does anyone here KNOW that Campbell was drafted to compete for the starting job?? He was drafted to be a quarterback for the Redskins, period. Everyone is screaming about trading draft picks, but next year's cap numbers aren't going to allow us to draft and sign #1 type guys and be able to pay them. There is some long term thinking going on here and when all is said and done, the franchise will be better off for it.

Yea! That was a money play....it was there Safety Lewis who knocked the crap out of him! But I hate Coles and what we allowed him to do to us. take 9 milliion and run AND get a new contract from the Jets! Wow....Coles didn't use any lubrication on that interlude did he?

Re: OTA's : Quarterbacks
 
HA! That's something my friend says all the time... but seriously he didn't screw us as bad as we are led to believe. Granted, complaining about 90+ catches was kind of crappy BUT he handled it like a man and a combination of Snyder being a jackass and the Post story getting out is what led to the MAJOR problem.

They can still use Brunell when they decide to run the "prevent offense".

Re: OTA's : Quarterbacks
 
i have to admit that the more i think about brunell and his game soo totally falling apart
the more this snatch and grab of campbell was well adviced. in this league you've got to have a couple of good qb's. hasselback had everything but, an arm. and brunell had everything and now has nothing.sad to see, i liked brunell. but if he contiues like this why carry him?see if he will give some of the bonus back and give him his papers.let him see if he can hook on with someone else.:Flush:

Re: OTA's : Quarterbacks
 
He'd have to be hanging out with Ricky to fall for a deal like that. I'm sure HE thinks he still has it, AND why not get paid to sit on your ass?

Plus the 9 million cap charge is done after this season....no dead money hanging over the Skins salary cap for years like they had in the not so distant past (for Coles at least...all teams have some dead money). It actually helps us for next year's cap.

Re: OTA's : Quarterbacks
 
I definitely wish him well. It was a little irritating but nothing more than that.

Re: OTA's : Quarterbacks
 
your right,but brunell is different than ricky, i just hope the skins can recoup some of the bonus.

Re: OTA's : Quarterbacks
 
What the hell are you guys talking about??? Brunell was the MAIN reason we lost so many games last year. I am not saying we should have been contenders for the Super Bowl, but damn he was awful... I mean he couldn't even hit a moving target, that is why we had all of those screens last year. I am SOOOOO glad Gibbs finally realized that he was not the answer. Ramsey came in that Giants game and threw 3 ints in one half but still almost got us the comeback victory because he can MOVE THE BALL.

Bruneel was great in the 90's. BUt if he left the team I would be a happy camper. The money that we paid him we could have gotten a very serviceable back up. At that time I think Garcia, Warner, Collins, and a few other QBs were available... Thise guys can at least still trow the ball down field...
