Here is how I see it. And I'm not trying to turn this into a Brunell thread. But can someone tell me why we are keeping a 37 year old QB coming off major shoulder surgery to his throwing arm? Even when he is healthy, which isn't very often, he can't move the chains. Yes, he has experience, but throwing a 5 yard pass on 3-8 does nothing for me. Brunell can't run Al's offense. Does anyone on this board think that Collins can't do any worse than Brunell did? I'm just speculating. I don't know, maybe Brunell is better suited for the back-up role and can be effective if he only has to play for a week or two. But if I have to watch 9 Eagles lurking around the line of scrimmage and we can't beat that deep I'm going to puke.

If you look around the NFL most teams keep a young guy and a vet. No one keeps two old guys around in their mid to late 30's. So I believe this rumor 100%. So if it were me, I would have Collins be the #2 and then let Bramlett and Palmer battle it out for #3. We have got to get a young guy in here to groom along with JC.

I guess it's been a while since a nice Brunell sucks posting. This one didn't make me want to punch the computer.

What I've heard is that Brunell is just a better mentor for young QBs than Collins. He's more patient, engaging, and supportive. And, this is kind of interesting, I've also heard that Brunell is more adept at understanding the complexities of offenses other than Saunders' and that makes him more effective as a scout team QB.

I would also like to add that neither is exactly a spring chicken, and I would rather have a backup that had an effective career, than one who played back up the whole time.
