Brunell is a washed-up, has-been. He looked terrible down the stretch last year and showed that same lack of arm strength last night.
We're going to be in for a long year if Portis doesn't get (stay) healthy because Brunell is not going to win us any games.
In his prime, MB was a pretty damn good QB. But he is maybe 50% of what he once was. Preseason or not, that interception last night was indicative of the kind of passes he made all 2004-5 season and down the stretch last year. Even his 4 completions had no zip on the ball. Arm strength, unfortunately, does not increase as the season goes on.
