I think Brunell can take us into the playoffs, but that he would run out of gas late in the season as he did this year. Brunell clearly had little power left in the Philly, Tampa and Seattle games. Moreover, he'll turn 36 before the Redskins play their third game of the 2006 season.

All four QBs who will play in the championship games this weekend are younger than Brunell - Matt Hasselbeck, 30; Ben Roethlisberger, 23; Jake Delhome, just turned 31; and Jake Plummer, 31.

Those four or five years make a huge difference in speed and ability to play a 19- or 20-game season, which would include the Super Bowl.
