we should ask. what do you guys think of Gibb's choice to get and stick with Brunell? how did it affect our season? our team? and ultimately this off-season? whats the consensus around the media?

just cuz i think it was a huge, costly mistake doesn't mean i think Gibbs will keep making them. or that we're doomed. i'm excited about Taylor and our defense, Ramsey and the new OLine, and i'm one of the few Portis heads on this board. the reason i brought this up is precisely because its so UNUSUAL of Gibbs, like i said, i too thought he could do no wrong. i think his first decision back was a terrible one, and am hopeful he'll use it to never make another bad one again.

Was it a mistake to stick with Brunell for so long? Looking back now, yes it probably was. Did it cost us the season? It's not easy to say. I think it raises a few other questions that need to be answered. Was Ramsey ready to play earlier in the season? Would he have made that much of a difference if he was inserted into the lineup earlier?

Did it hurt the team's morale? If it did it didn't last long, the team fought and played hard right til the last snap of the season.
