expect or wish for? Brunell plays it TOO smart, he hasn't had a direct pick in a while (just off those tips), because he'll either throw it away, or 'lead' a receiver so uh 'much' that no defender (nor receiver) can get it.

he's been playing TOO conservative. he doesn't throw the random rookie INTs that Ramsey still has in his system. like him or not, Brunell is a vet, and he's got instincts. the best times i seen him play is when he's on the move and listening to those instincts. like when he sidestepped that cowboy and drilled a TD to Gardner. when he follows the gameplan too strictly and all of the 'rules' is when he gets too soft and throws it away or overthinks his passes.
