Re: Brunell sucks

IMO Brunell either has to turn it around this week or I don't think he has it in him to play consistently well for the duration of the season anymore. = Backup status. JMO

Re: Brunell sucks

Everyone got on Brunell's high horse because of his play in the first several games. He's been less consistent as of late, and the boobirds want his head. Granted, he has to step it up, but you can't put the brunt of the blame on his shoulders. While he's made mistakes, so has everyone else on that unit, including the coaching staff.

By no means does Brunell suck. He hasn't played well, but he doesn't suck...

The O-Line can only hold off a pass rush for so long. Gibbs believes in the max protect schemes, but if a 5-6 man rush leaves 5-6 guys covering 2-3, it's only a matter of time before someone sneakes in.

It was nice to see the Skins get Portis outside a lot. I'd have to venture a guess to say his first 5-7 runs were mostly sweeps.

The entire unit, line, backfield, receivers and QB, has to step up the last 6 games and make things happen. They can easily go 6-0 as they could go 0-6. All depends on what they bring to the table. The effort against Tampa, or the effort against Oakland.

I was actually thinking about that.I dont think Brunell has played ANYWHER near bad enough to be benched. But even if he is going to be our guy next year, which I anticipate. Do you think about giving Jason Cambpell a start or two if we are mathmatically eliminated from the playoffs? Just to get a little experiance?

Yep, I would! The only problem is, unless we lose our next 3 games or so, we might technically not be mathematically out of it until the last game of the season, so I'm not sure if putting him in then is such a good idea. If were 5-8 after the next three weeks, then putting him in might not be such a bad idea.

Re: Brunell sucks

This thread is ridiculous.

Name me one Skins player that has outplayed Brunell this year.
