Would there be any situation under which you'd admit that we would have been better off leaving Brunell in this game?

Thus uglyness. On both sides of the ball. Like the Phili game, except vs a team thats not nearly as good.

We had a passing game? The 22nd ranked passing game (13 of 16 in the NFC) that averaged 188 yards per game, and produced 8 TDs in 9 games and 1 TD in 4 NFC east games.

Yeah, the stats also won't tell you that no team believed Brunell would ever make them pay for blitzing, because they knew the slightest amount of pressure got him really frazzled. Especially against Philly, NY, and Dallas, they could send someone extra in on nearly every play, and there was never going to be a threat of Brunell exploiting the secondary for it.

Also, did you notice how whenever the offense needed a big play, it was Randle El throwing it?

That little guy has got a cannon of an arm.

sure, if Campbell was hurt or we had last year's defense.

either way i can't stand your boy's (can't say his name) predicatbly conservative style letting the defense win games and i wouldn't want to see him play another season for us.

about frickin time,too little too late,thanks joe,at least you pulled the trigger now,I thought youd sink the ship at least another week with brunell
no matter how bad jc is the rest of the yr I'm not going to call him out,he deserves every chance to suck as bad as brunell,they need to go ahead and cut novak while theyre at it,try somebody else out for a couple games

22nd by yards? Considering we throw less then anyone else, that doesn't mean much to me. Do it by Yards per Attempt. I can do it.

Fine, forget yardage. How about scoring? All that matters is scoring and our offense was the unit that couldn't. In three away games against NFC East teams the Redskins scored a TOTAL of 9 points. Save the games against Jax and Hous, the offense averaged 12 points per game! If that's not bad, I don't know what is.

We were limited to 5-10 yard passes on one side of the field with #8.

Yeah, if you save the two best games, it's gonna be bad for pretty much anyone.

I really don't know why we fizzle in between the 40 and the 25 in opponents territory most of the time (costing us a shot at points). Must be Brunell's fault. That MUST be it. I don't know, so blame the QB.

It seems unrealistic to say that Brunell's play declines in that 15 yard span (where our unsucessful drives fizzle, we are really down on 3 + out). Since there is no good reason, would it be unreasonable to say that its just a matter of chance? Or is there a reason why we can't get drives into Field Goal range despite getting to the fringe all the time? Playcalling maybe, I'm not sure.

Al Saunders was interviewed today on comcast. you could definitely tell he was stoked about campbell starting, he was smiling and stuff and talking happily. he also said we will do different things now that jason is in...hmmmmmmmmmm

let's see, if we pass less than anyone else, get any passing yards we do have from YAC, have 3 starting receivers (incl. Cooley) with less than 200yds, and our star running back was having a career low....yup must be a good offense.

Okay, try to name 1 other good QB who has led an offense that has averaged 12 points in 7 of 9 games (taking away his two best games).

Besides those games against Jax, Dallas II, and Houston, when do you think Brunell played well? When do you think he didn't play well?

Well since the efficiency ratings say it is, I have to dig deeper. Someone has to be right...the statistical rankings or illdefined.

Our star RB is injured. Our WRs have less than 200 yards...i dont know maybe because we pass less than anyone else. And we get yards after the catch? How HORRIBLE! Bench Brunell...oh wait.

Haven't even seen the efficiency ratings (certainly will take a hit after Sunday), but I already know who or what to believe.

Someone has to be right, the entire world (including Gibbs et al) or GTripp.

Sorry, I couldn't resist. But do you honestly believe that every ex-football player, coach, analyst, and fan is wrong about Brunell and is unfairly blaming him? I hate to cite football "experts" as support for my argument, but when every single one has called for Brunell's benching I must.
