Yes, but he, along with just about everyone else still acknowledge that this is just preseason. Every coach wants a chance to evaluate as many players as they can against starters on opposing teams. Your backup quarterback should face a first team starting defense at least once during the exhibition games.
If this fact makes Ramsey nervous, and he takes a Brunell starting nod next week as an ominous sign, then that's not good. Competition should make a pro athelete in the NFL flourish, not cower.
