I can't fault playcalling against the Cardinals. Look at the statistics, why wouldn't you run against these guys?

We had 2 interceptions occur right at the goalline, both on really stupid throws by Brunell. You have to figure that if the ball weren't picked in those instances, that the Skins probably would have come away with 10 points between those 2 possessions. That would have swung the game to a 27 point performance.

Brunell forced those throws.

I do agree with everyone who says we're strategically limited because of our 2nd WR situation. But given those limitations, I think the playcalling is doing fine. Against the Cardinals, the main problem was Brunell's execution. His brain took a day off, apparently.
