Defense Wins Championships!!! Not when you have Brunell as a QB!!!
ok..whoever said this obviously never watched the Skins much. So far the skins have been ranked in the top 5 all season and yet they are 1-4. It seems as if the majority of the opposing teams touchdowns have been because of the Skins Offense. Wait...is that right? As far as I can recollect, the skins offense has given its opponents 3 touchdowns. Hmm..that is 21 points out of 85 (nearly 25%) scored by the opposing teams have been fumbles resulting in touchdowns in the same play. And these don't count the TD's or FG's that eventually resulted on a drive after a Turnover. Ok..now who was involved in all 3 of these? hmm..if I am not mistaken, 2 were botched handoffs by Brunell and one was a fumble by Brunell himself. I know...Cartwright should have made the block and Portis should of had stickum on his side, stomach and hands..but geesh, it seems like Brunell is reminding me of another multimillion dollar mistake (Does the name Deion ring any bells?) Oh don't get me wrong Brunell isn't the only one making mistakes, Portis has had fumblitus throughout the season also. I'm sorry..but I just don't see Brunell being worth 22 million or whatever it was they spent on him. I know he has had quite a few dropped passes...but he has also thrown more passes into the dirt than any QB I have seen. Some of his passes aren't even close. Yeah he has made a few nice throws..but those don't make up for the open receivers he has completely missed.
My personal opinion is to bench Brunell and let Ramsey play. At least with Ramsey we won't expect much and there will be less of a disappointment with him if he makes a mistake.
