Today, Brunell looked like Ramsey

I thought it was interesting to see Simeon Rice apply pressure to Mark Brunell on passing plays.

Maybe our defensive ends could try that sometime.

Brunell played like Ramsey???????? That's F'ing crazy!!! Yea he fumbled but his INT's were clearly not his fault. The fact that Brunell hits multiple targets, scrambles for key 1st downs, and scrambles to get free to pass is something Ramsey never could do!! I can't belive your questioning a QB who led us to 35pts.. GET REAL!!!

If you read the original post clearly, I'm not questionning Brunell starting over Ramsey at all. That debate was settled in Game 2 against the Cowboys, as far as I'm concerned.

What I am questionning is his technique protecting the football when he's under D-line pressure. Let's count the number of games he has fumbled in. Denver, Kansas City (in the red zone), Giants, Eagles (red zone), and today. So, your stellar QB has fumbled the ball in 5 of the last 6 games. That's a problem in need of correction, wouldn't you say? Not by benching him, but by better QB coaching and protection.

Exactly right. until he stops fumbling, Brunell won't be stellar in my book (even though he's better than Ramsey).

You can't cough it up on a such a regular basis without hurting the team. He's got to stop coughing it up. 5 fumbles in the last 6 games. Our record in those 6 games - you guessed it, 2-4.

Thats why I never got on the brunell bandwagon... I'm sorry but everytime he gets hit he coughs it up...and those ints werent his fault huh??? he forced the ball 2 times when moss clearly wasnt open..The Eagles game would have never been that close ..remember the fumble before half? he wins games but every game we have lost his fumbles have been a factor.... hell i will say it he has playing well AT TIMES but all the turnovers ..... I mean its ptiful everytime he gets hit its sad he coughs it right up...

I agree but if Ramsey fumbled he would be the goat you can belive that..I'm not convinced and i'm not on his bandwagon... and we won't get to the superbowl or playoffs with him... i want him to prve me wrong but if i'm a coach on the other team i bring pressure ...just hit him oh and play the recievers close u will get ints and fumbles...

Brunell lost two fumbles, but most QBs are going to drop the ball when Rice pretty much comes clean. The pass protection on the left side was awful. Royal didn't even move on one play, then just stood there as Portis was trying to keep Rice off Brunell. The two INTs we not really Brunells fault. Patten has to come and get that ball instead of waiting for it to get to him. And the screen pass, maybe shouldn't have been thrown at all, but it bounced right into Rices hands. Brunell played a very good game though. In the second half he drove us down the field time and time again, against the NFLs #1 Defense. And we were winning the game late. Brunell is a fighter, thats for sure.
