Re: Brunell key to VICTORY!

Brunell's scramble was the biggest play of the game because we were dead in the water without it. To come back behind it and beat the blitz, good blitz pickup Portis, made it better.

The key to victory tonite is Moss. He was able to get open most of the night, suffered through the frustration of overthrows and missed reads for three quarters and his speed won the game. Great throws by Brunell, especially considering he can't throw the deep ball anymore .

Yeah... I hope after this game they start throwing the ball deep a few times early on to get the defense to play back some. Just throwing a couple early on, let alone completing them, will help keep the defense guessing and stop crowding the line to stop Portis. The other thing about Moss is that he WENT for the ball agressively both times.

And you make another good point... anybody who doubts Brunell's ability to throw deep is smoking something. Those 2 TDs passes were two of the prettiest throws I've seen in a long time.

Those were some damn fine passes from Brunell to Moss. He threw one of them into double coverage, but he read it perfectly and saw that Moss was going to beat the DBs. There is no question that Brunell's stock rose dramatically. I hope that we can see more of those in the coming weeks.

I just wonder, where was that Brunell during the first three quarters? If he can play anything close to what he played like in the last four minutes throughout an entire game (or even a half), he'll be a stud and take us into the playoffs.

We tried to stick with the running game and keep things as well balanced as possible.....in the fourth quarter....we abandoned the run altogether and the Cowboys dared us to beat them in the are. They just didn't realize we were capable of doing so....neither did we know either!
