He may be smater than us but one thing bothers the crap out of me about him. Right after the game he makes a point to say how JC didn't play well or he said he needs to play better. I was half asleep when he said it but it was total BS. We had to sit through 3 years of inconsistent QB play and not once do I remember him say anything negative about Brunell. I mean nothing. Not even after he stunk it up last year in Phil, or against Dallas, or at NY, or anytime in 04 or 05. Yet the 1st thing he mentions to the reporter after a PRE SEASON GAME is something about HOW JC needs to do better?? WHAT A BUNCH OF BS!!!

If you ask me he didn't play bad. 3 competions over 20 yards in one half not including two drops? When did Brunell ever have 6 competions for over 100 yards? Always 14 or 15 for 140 yards seemed to be his average line. Plus JC was under duress all night long. Yes, he misssed some things and the bottom line is we did not score any points. So I'm not letting JC off the hook by any means. Plus one fumble was on him. But give me a damn break. He did some things real well considering how the line played.

Just my .02

It's pretty obvious that Joe REALLY liked Brunell. I guess he thought he still had some of that magic he worked in Jacksonville for the longest time.

It couldn't possibly be the fact that Campbell was just then starting and needed his head to stay on Earth and not shoot up into the sky with over-confidence?

I saw Ramsey throw a pick and it was the same old story. He had no clue where his receivers were supposed to be on the play. If the first option isn't wide open he's screwed. Spurrier didn't think he could play. Gibbs didn't think he could play. Eric Mangini obviously didn't fall in love with him. At some point the Fedayeen will have break up the band.

He doesn't say anything negative about anyone.

Gibbs always keeps things like that in-house.

Well, it is the truth.

It was hardly overly negative.

I thought that Gibbs' appraisal was honest. Campbell will not be hurt by the truth. He's a soldier. You have to deal with different players differently. Brunell needed someone in his corner. Campbell needs to stay hungry and grounded. Gibbs knows how to do this with quarterbacks. He's been there, done that, three times.
