Brunell in Saunders's offense ?

[MTK]

I'm optimistic about Brunell in this offense for a few reasons. He still has gas in the tank if you ask me. Yes he slumped at the end of last year, but I believe that can be attributed to several factors that we've already addressed several times in other threads... his knee injury, a banged up Portis in the playoffs, no true #2 threat at WR, and a stale offensive attack, etc.

With the weapons we've added and Saunders calling the shots, I'm really interested to see Brunell lead the offense.

Do you think that Collins might have been brought in as Saunders's guy like Brunell was Gibbs's guy ? Here's a quote from this article:

Todd is as good a technician as there is in this passing game," Saunders said. "He just hasn't had a chance to play because [Chiefs Pro Bowl starter] Trent [Green] was always healthy."

Very good point. I never thought of it that way. Kind of like Matt Schaub in Atlanta, but he gets to play. But as far as the running game though Matty, its gotta be exciting that we have 3 young RB's and KC only had two and one was over the hill. Its going to be interesting to see how well betts and cartwright perform when they come in to spell Portis
