We have all seen Gibb's ability to plug components into his system and find success(Rypien and Williams). My point is brunell is a component in an already successful scheme that needed one year to re-tool. The offense is working well together and that is the result of gibb's teaching not brunell's leadership. I think my perspective is much like gibb's right. he brought brunell in to run the offense. he brought in a rookie to be taught. he got what he needed out of brunell but wishes it had been a little more.
Gibb's knows Brunell sucks, that is why he drafted Campbell and that's why campbell will be our opening day starter.

I don't believe anybody is giving him sole credit for our turnaround this past season, but it is truly irresponsible to give him absolutely no credit whatsoever. If Gibbs truly thought Brunell "sucks" he would not have been starting Brunell this past year. He drafted Campbell because Gibbs knows Brunell isn't going to be playing for another 10 years. Gibbs didn't draft Campbell because Brunell sucks. That to me sounds quite ignorant. Sorry, but it does.
Gibbs brought Brunell in to run the offense and to teach the younger qbs how to manage the offense and how to be good leaders. Gibbs also brought Brunell in, because he felt Mark gave us a chance to be successful, and so far, Gibbs has been absolutely right. Mark will, again, be our starter on opening day this season. He may or may not finish as our starting quarterback, but there is no reason to make a change now.
