I was actually very happy with the fact that the game was out of Brunell's hands at the end. Regardless of how well he played today, he still loses around 80% of the time when he has to try to bring a team back in the fourth quarter.

I'm not going to bother to check your figure because, I mean how often can you expect a QB to bring his team back? 25-30% at the highest?

Well, I posted an article with the numbers a few weeks ago. Regardless of what the average numbers were, Brunell is the worst quarterback in the past ten seasons in fourth quarter comebacks. He played an acceptable game today, but I'm still happy it wasn't on him to win the game.

Yeah, I remember FO doing a study on it, finding Brunell the worst statistical comeback QB in the NFL. Then again the best was...wait for it...Jake Plummer.

But if you have to comeback consistently, chances are the team isn't doing a good job at any other position.

I remember Ramsey being 0-11 there. Damn, did I just bring up Ramsey. Shit, I'm sorry

I take it back
