Today, Brunell looked like Ramsey

hurrykaine · 11-13-2005, 09:16 PM

The difference between Brunell and Ramsey is that the former fumbles, but doesn't throw many picks, but the latter both fumbles (when hit) and throws picks. Today, Brunell was Ramsey.

Ok, maybe that's simplifying things since Brunell sees the field much better than Ramsey and is more willing to scramble to pick up yards.

The point of this thread is notNOTNOT to initiate Brunell vs Ramsey talk again, but initiate fan talk about the emphasis on better protection for Brunell, as well as Brunell's technique protecting the football. This far, Brunell as been miserable at protecting the ball. Hell, Simeon Rice could've pinched Brunell's a$$ and he would've coughed up the ball.

I just talked to my brother earlier and he said the same thing. Ramsey would get early turnovers, battle back and narrowly lose the game many times. That's pretty much what Brunell did today.

Gibbs said, the name of the game is protection. That is the number one thing that makes this offense work, and without it, it falls. I thought for the most part, especially in the second half, we made the right adjustments to improve pass protection. As far as those two INTs, they came off of tipped or batted balls, so I don't read too much into those two turnovers although they are turnoves nevertheless.

I don't understand why Brunell has had so much trouble holding onto the ball when sacked. As best as I can recall, it's never a problem during his entire career

Even with the turnovers, the fumbles and forced passes Walt Harris loss this game for the Redskins. He was called for offside on 3 and 4. He was burnt toast all day and he never played up on Galloway or Hilliard which eventually killed him. As Brunell, he played a decent game against the 1# defense in their home and he still was able to move the ball after his mistakes. That's the QB we need at the end of the day. He can win but so many games at the end of the game on the road. Brunell is still the best QB in the NFC East period.

That's true.

The only bad play that can be attributed to Brunell is the fumble. The Two INTs weren't his faults, especially the first one! The Defense really stunk up the joint today!

Please!!!! Dont do this thread.......brunell had a decent outing...If Patton woulda come back towards ball and catch(Moss)NO pick!!!!!...second, Brunell shoulda audibled(which he said he doesnt dare in THIS weeks conference) in an OBVIOUS man 4 man coverage with man in motion and DB following

!!!! QUICK SLANT not gonna work. Kudos for rice's hustle to make the pick....I'm finding it harder and harder to talk with the Negative fan base here!!!!Please guys...Keep your head up. Im impressed(once again) with our offensive game plan and performance!!!!! Ive told my family...of skins fans with over 2 centuries of devotion among us that we do NOT need to be so aggresive on defense!!! We have the talent on Offense greg!!!!!! We dont need u to win games THIS year. By the way...LOVE the new faces....

YOU ARE SO RIGHT!!!! Patton blew that pass up!!! He had way more then the Skins needed for a first down. He was lazzy or what ever!!!! He has been in this league or played football to long NOT to know this!!! AS for the D I like aggresive play but DB should never let WR's get behind them!!!

Not to mention HE was the 1 OFFSIDES on the opposite end of SPRINGS who blocked the extra point!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lets face it....Without Taylor we are very vulnerable.

I agree with that part. However, that doesn't mean there are aspects of the team that don't suck. The "Protecting the football" aspect of this team is one of the worst in the league...the point of this thread. No one's calling for any heads - just better technique and protection.
