E: No speed
F: He's lost the "it" factor?
G: Besides Elway name me one player after the age of 37 that has won a suprbowl at QB at that age? Also tell me if that player is in the hall of fame or not?
H: How many people boo mark constantely at the home games?
I: OLD QB'S CAN'T WIN SUPERBOWL'S unless they are John Elway

Elway was the greatest ever to play, IMO. Brunell was never asked to do what John Elway did. But I'll take your quiz.

A. Sure he could and he does at times.
B. Good Point.
C. You can't intimidate the Raiders. You beat the Raiders while they attempt to intimidate you.
D. Without getting into how the nature of playcalling disallows a coach to "call a deep play", you've already made this point in A.
E. I'd say he moves quite well for a 37 year old. If your point is that he's old, good work.
F. I don't think so. I believe in the "it" factor, or QB intangibles. I don't think you EVER lose it, but its a subjective topic, so you can't prove that.
G. Well, Elway was the oldest player ever to win a SB at age 37, so you really have me there! But 4 years ago Rich Gannon played in the Super Bowl at age 37, and was the league MVP that year. So if you are saying old QBs can't play, that's quite easily disprovable.
H. Anyone who is frusterated at the team.
