The Official Thank You Mark Brunell Thread

[12thMan]

[quote=Mattyk72;245846]They are definitely on the negative side, so as I asked let's respect the intent of this thread and keep it positive. There are more than enough Brunell bashing threads already in existence.[/quote

okay.

Age and injuries are hard to overcome - don't blame Brunell for this 3-6 start, blame Gibbs for waiting too long to make the change.

I'll choose to remember the positives of the Mark Brunell era, particularly the playoff drive last season. His clutch performances in BOTH Cowboys games, and his solid play before getting injured in the crucial Giants game last Christmas Eve demonstrated that he could still lead a team driving for the playoffs.

I'm glad that Campbell will get a chance to start more than 2-3 games this season. His body of work, particularly in December once his feet are wet, should help determine whether we're set at QB or whether we'll be looking for a veteran free agent come March.

I would like to thank Mark for being a man about things, he could have easily used a ski mask and a gun to rob 43 mil, and yet he didn't, he was up front about this larceny, and cap destruction, not to mention the amount of time spent waiting for you to actually compete, FOUGHT YOUR GUTS OUT? Maybe trying to cut in line at the bank to cash all those checks which I am sure you will continue to do, but that's where it ended. So long Mark don't let the door hit you in the A**.

Whenever I think of Mark Brunell it will always be the awesome games he has last year.

His two TD passes to Moss against Dallas.

His Scramble and then his pass down the middle to Moss against Seattle.

His 300 yard passing Game in Denver.

His 70 screen pass against Kansas City.

His near perfect passing game against the 49ers.

A convincing win over the Eagles.

Great play in the shootout with the Buccaneers.

Brunell and Cooley hooking up to smash the Cowboys 35-7.

Smacking the Giants after an embarassing 36-0 loss.

And the image of Brunell with his arm in the air walking into the locker room after a huge win against the Eagles will forever be burned in my mind.

He did magical things for this team last year, almost like the Brett Favre of old. But time moves on and Brunell can not physically keep up with the game any more, lets hope he remains as classy as he has always been.
