How Long For Brunell?

[RiggoRules]

During 2004, I was a front runner in wanting to see #8 on the bench. I still believe he was injured during most of that season. 2005 was different. Ramsey lost the job and MB kept it which I didn't expect. I've also been pretty open about my feeling that our stretch run last year was in spite of our passing game, not because of it.

In other words, I don't have a #8 jersey in my closet.

But I've gotta tell you, I am nothing short of stunned by this thread. Exactly what game where you people watching? Of all the broken pieces and parts, why are you discussing QB play at all?

For example:

Betts: 8/22 yards, 1 Fumble (how come no one is calling for his head?)
3rd Down Defense: 9/17
3rd Down Offense: 4/13
Secondary play: Enough said.

Compare that with what MB did:

17/28/163 with 0 fumbles, sacks or INTs.

Sure, not Peyton like numbers, but he sure wasn't the reason why we lost.
