i realy like ramsey and hope he can use this time to work on his flaws, but just because a qb takes a pounding while putting up slightly above average stats, shouldn't make him the starter by default. especially when they've brought in a much more proven and talented qb who still has some gas in the tank. didn't hasselback give his all for the team last year when he got put in, so does that mean he should be in the running for the starting job? that's their jobs, it doesn't make them the better choice to help the team win. if ramsey plays how we hope he can this summer than we will be seeing him start sometime this year with or without an injury to brunnel, but right now at this given moment, brunnel is the better qb to help this team win right away and thats what i care about rather than a player's pride and ego. 6 wins out of 15(i'm not counting the miami game where he got hurt very early in the game) starts doesn't really scream out starter by default to me and i hope he can use the time while brunnel starts to first and foremost completely recover from his foot surgery and then work on his game footage studies and his pocket awareness and timing. the coaches know a little bit more about the current skills of the two qbs than us right now and there's a reason gibbs worked so hard and gave up as much as they did to bring in brunnel so i'll take my chances trusting gibbs' judgement.
