Brunell Lost a step?

The INT seemed to be a miscommunication and a busted play.

It's still way too early to get up in arms over the QB situation. They're still learning the offense and working on getting on the same page. For the first preseason game, things went pretty much as expected if you ask me. Yeah we could have done without the INT, but he did hit Moss and Lloyd with a couple of nice throws, and actually overthrew Lloyd on a deep ball (so much for the bum arm take).

Exactly, I am not a Brunell guy as you all well know but I want him throwing it away in pre-season when theres any kind of trouble, theres no need for heroics when the game doesn't count, I really don't want him out there in the pre-season, but because he needs time to learn this new offense as well as 2 new WR's we have no choice, I also don't want him making any tackles on INT's, if I am the coach I have him run off the field the second there is a turnover, the INT he threw is exactly why he needs to be playing in the pre-season, either Lloyd, or Brunell read it wrong I don't believe he was throwing it away, better to get the kinks out now than the reg season.
