The bottom line here is winning games. Everyone is going to be anxiously waiting to see what kind of start the team gets off too in 05, and loosing games is not an option.Gibbs is going to be feeling the heat if the team gets off to the same kind of start as last year. While Ramsey has been named the starter means little if he fails to perform to that level he needs to win games. Therefore I don't think Gibbs will be reluctant to pull him if he's not performing to expectations. It's not about who starts, it about who finishes. Gibbs stuck with Brunell much too long last year while we continued to loose games and I don't think he'll make that same mistake again this year. For the sake of positive results let's "hope" Ramsey will take off with the opportunity he has been given and any change at QB will become an afterthought.Again, the bottom line is winnimg.
