Let me just add. Clearly the answer is to bench Moss ;)

[quote=Southpaw;239467]I was actually very happy with the fact that the game was out of Brunell's hands at the end. Regardless of how well he played today, he still loses around 80% of the time when he has to try to bring a team back in the fourth quarter.[/quote]I'm not going to bother to check your figure because, I mean how often can you [I]expect[/I] a QB to bring his team back? 25-30% at the highest?

Re: Give Props to Brunell
 

What is all this about 'benching Archuleta'? He was beaten by Jason Witten for the big catch on the last play before the blocked field goal.

He wasn't benched. He was out there getting torched when the game was on the line.

Re: Give Props to Brunell
 

[quote=GTripp0012;239464]Good point.

So why are you for benching Brunell again?[/quote]

Because he was almost picked off 4 times, he is a liability. We did win today and I am elated about that, but I still remember how he has played over the past 2-3, Like crap! We are not the ravens of a couple of years ago or even the skins of last year that has a great D,and can rely on them to keep us in games or even win for us.

Not just me and my 'blind hatred' then?

Phew, another Brunell bigot. We need to start a cult, Stacks.

I don't remember him almost throwing 4 INTs. I also don't remember him throwing ANY actual INTs.

Well, I posted an article with the numbers a few weeks ago. Regardless of what the average numbers were, Brunell is the worst quarterback in the past ten seasons in fourth quarter comebacks. He played an acceptable game today, but I'm still happy it wasn't on him to win the game.

Watch the game again. It's pretty plain to see. One throw went through Roy-Roy's hands.

And if you want to talk about luck, how about the Redskins' season until now?

Re: Give Props to Brunell
 

It was a decent game played by Brunell today. He played to win too, he didn't play to lose.

I think he was brought out there at the end to serve as extra help on obvious passing plays. "Help" being used loosely

Then again the best was...wait for it...Jake Plummer.

But if you have to comeback consistently, chances are the team isn't doing a good job at any other position.

I remember Ramsey being 0-11 there. Damn, did I just bring up Ramsey. Shit, I'm sorry

I take it back

We talk about the skins namely Rogers having "almost interceptions", looked like the whole cowpukes secondary, adopted his hands of stone play.
Im glad there werent any picks, MB had quite a few scary passes (the cooley touchdown, and what was up with that horrible throw to a wide open llyod? it was called back but wtf can he ever hit anyone in stride?). I cant believe that people are saying that a QB throwing for less than 200yds is a great game
