Gibbs went back and forth a couple of times early when Jay was hurt, and Williams to his credit was doing a better job, there wasen't a big difference performance wise between the 2 but Williams was getting the better of it, but the bottom line is we really can't find a situation where Gibbs didn't give his starter a real chance to prove himself until Ramsey, a lot of people want to judge the pre-season and anoint Brunell, but remember during 2 of our SB years we won a combined 1 game in the pre-season, how good do you think our QB's looked? How good did Theisman look when we started off the 82 season 0-6, After going 0-5 in the pre-season? Bottom line until this scenerio plays itself out we will all continue to agree to disagree, I just feel regardless that Ramsey really has been given a raw deal.

I totally agree with you Offiss. I think Ramsey has been slighted by Gibbs since day 1 and while I am a fan of Coach Gibbs, I can't go along with supporting Brunnell. At this point, it would appear that it's more a matter of finances than talent when it comes to putting Brunnell at QB. Gibbs busted his a$$ to get Brunnell here and refuses to let him sit the bench for millions of dollars, despite his lack of ability to perform on the field. I know Gibbs preaches no turnovers and many of us say that winners don't turn the ball over, but the last time I checked the rulebook, the team with the most points wins the game. I don't see our offense having much of chance to ring up points with Brunnell at the helm, but I guess we'll find out Monday night.
