If Moss is out - can ARE and Lloyd step up?

BDBohnzie · 11-03-2006, 09:50 AM

As it's been pointed out, it's not whether ARE and Lloyd can step up (they can), it's whether Brunell can throw to someone who's not 89, 47 or 26/46. He's going to have to this weekend, and I think he'll be ok.

You guys KILL me with this Brunell stuff. The man CAN throw the ball to other people. He'll be fine, and he'll have a freakin rocket on him after sitting out for so long and resting.

Moss: 28 catches, 435 yards
Cooley: 21 catches, 218 yards
Betts: 23 catches, 193 yards
Lloyd: 11 catches, 164 yards
Randle El: 18 catches, 167 yards
Portis: 15 catches, 155 yards
Sellers: 9 catches, 50 yards

So, he looks to throw to other people than Moss; their names are Betts and Cooley. On that list it's 47 catches by backs, 21 by cooley and 29 by receivers not named Moss. 28 by Moss. So, if he doesn't play, they're in deep trouble.

No you kill me! When the hell are you gonna throw that Brunell towl in you've been wavin'? Can't you see that this Brunell thing ain't workin? Will he have a rocket on him or rust? There comes a time in every athletes life when he has to look in the mirror and face reality. Father Time is blitzing right up the middle and he can't get out of the way! The future is now!

WHAT I SEE - is that he's our ONLY chance to make the playoffs THIS YEAR. You guys are so busy thinking about next year that you've all thrown in the towel THIS YEAR. Instead of sitting around bashing him all season I'm going to stand behind him. I would like to see a few more good games, and I would HOPE that now that our D is healthy that he can step up a bit more. The time IS NOW, not tomrrow. Makes more sense, I think!!

You say that you're going to stand behing him but if he loses this week and you're sitting at 2 - 6 with the only real chance to make the playoffs is if you go 8-0 the next weeks would you still be behind him

That's a whole lot of "ifs".. To answer your question, YES, I'll still be behind him becuase I want to see a few more good games this year. Especially against the Giants.

You're way up there on your horse for being 4-3 right now, don't you think? New QB and all. You all may very well fall short yourselves. Any given Sunday.

Nahh man I'm not up in my horse I just state the obvious Campbell is sopouse to be the future and if (and everything points that way) Brunnell isn't the option and there's notting to fight the season and if Campbell os ready I think it's time to move on.

Hey you only got 1 pick in the first day off the draft next year better make it worth

Although I never wish on players sitting out, I am kinda looking forward to this game bc the fact Brunell does not have Moss. I want to see if he is only gonna throw to Cooley and Betts, or if he is gonna mix it up.

Plus I think you guys are forgetting Patten and Trash. Atleast Trash will be active, and Brunell has shown that he can throw to Trash about 5 times a year.

Oh I meant trash on purpose, he doesnt seem to be doing much this year. In the past years he was a special teams beast.
