i don't see how we can blame Brunell for our record. True, he has lost fumbles and gotten sacks, but he's won us games (see Dallas), he's vastly improved over last year, he throws the ball away instead of just taking the sack, he's proven he can still run when he needs to, and he's been an efficient qb. Ramsey has shown a penchant for taking sacks, making bad decisions, and in his third season, didn't show he was capable. The better qb has the job, and i believe we still have this year and at least next year before we start Campbell. it takes time for rookie qbs to become starting caliber. Just look at Carson Palmer. Look at the monster season he's having. Jason Campbell has the tools to be a great qb, he just needs time. Brunell will give us enough time for that to happen. There are a number of things that have contributed to our losses this year, and Brunell isn't the biggest factor.
