At the end of the year, we will have objective (key:non-biased) statistical analysis to see who played better. We won't know until then, so a poll is sort of pointless at this point in time.
all polls are 'useless' come on.

anyway it's obviously a philosophy difference. you guys are expecting the defense to go from Terrible to last year's Awesome.

while we're expecting our offense to go from "Decent" (an average of "sub-par" for us and "good" by your terms) to better-than-last year's Awesome. that was the point of getting ARE and Lloyd afterall.

which side of team is closest to Winning The Game For Us? on defense it would take changing a LOT of players. on offense, it was changing the one who got

I agree the bigger team issue right now is defense.

Not sure what your trying to say about philosophy difference...

just that trying to fix the entire defense will be a lot harder than attempt to upgrade the offense by changing one key player.

Re: Does Campbell end the 'Cover 2' excuse?

The problem with numbers and statistics is that they don't tell the whole story. OK, I'll give you that Brunell is better than everyone on that list statistically, but maybe he should have taped that to his jersey because no one on the team seemed to buy into that. He doesn't seem to energize the troops like Palmer or Brady or Manning or Hasselbeck or anyone else on that list. The Skins offense doesn't play with confidence, and the only way to change that is to change qbs.

And 8 tds speaks for itself. I wouldn't trade Tim Hasselbeck for Brunell right now, DVOA be damned.
