Should Brunell be replaced? (merged)

Incorrect statement. If you had stated prior to preseason, that would be true. However, seeing both quarterbacks' performances in preseason, I came to the conclusion that Mark Brunell should be starting and not Ramsey.

I predicted in the preseason that PR would not be the starter in week 4 and was incorrect by 3 games. Everyone told me I was nuts because Gibbs said PR was his man.

There is no way the team will or should change QBs.

I think you're talking about this thread Yours is post #36. Yeah you called it, but I don't see that anyone even responded to your post, let alone said you were nuts.

We need to stick with the one who brung us (Brunell). That said, I hope he picks up his game. He's thrown only 4 TDs in the past 7 weeks.

LOL!!! Must be something only mods and admins can do, I haven't been able to look up old threads. Of course I don't have time to do so at work. (I'm always nervous when people walk past my door! Could be the boss, LOL!!!)

I don't think the search feature is regulated to just mods and admins. But I tend to remember relatively trivial things (like what irish wrote in late august) rather easily so it makes it easier to look for the actual thread or post to confirm. I have a good memory I guess-it's how I'm able to write those Rewind columns.

But I wasn't trying to Pwn anyone, just getting annoyed sometimes when people get into hyperboles "Everyone said" "I always knew", etc.

Well, one throws out enough predictions, they'll eventually get one or two right. If I were to predict how the quarterback situation is going to turn out in the near future, it will probably be us trading Ramsey (hopefully to help out on the defensive line) and getting a decent seasoned veteran to be #2. I don't suspect Jason Campbell to be thrown into the #2 position in his second year under Gibbs. For some reason, I see us getting Kurt Warner to be the #2 qb, because he has playoff and Super Bowl experience, and he probably wouldn't be terribly expensive at this point. Gibbs and his coaching staff likes to bring his young quarterbacks along slowly, which is fine by me as long as the finished product is everything we hope them to be.

Concerning the argument with Brunell and Ramsey (which is going to turn into the never ending argument like the Iraqi war,) I'm not sure why people are making such a big issue about it. Those who want to burn Brunell at the stake want to avoid the fact that we have two starting receivers out of the lineup. If we throw Ramsey in there, then people are going to say that Ramsey wasn't given a far shot because he only has one receiver to throw to.

Fans have no confidence in this franchise anymore. Most find joy in looking for things to be upset about. They ignore the fact that we're 7-6 and in the hunt for the playoffs. That is alot more than what we have had in the past 13 years, except for 1999.
