Sacrifice the Season

Brady Quinn and ND is getting their ass handed to them by Michigan right now 34-14 at halftime.
I guess under the reasoning of some on this thread, Brady Quinn and ND's season is over and they have no future because they lost one game and ND needs to get a new QB.

saunders may not last that long he wants to be a head coach still.

so after one game its time for campbell? I think not. One loss doesnt mean its time to write off the season. If i remember correctly i dont think brunnell threw any ints last monday. I think he played pretty well. No need to panic and put campbell in there. Now if we lose i dont know 6 or 7 games then maybe it may be time to play him.

Vaoutlaws: I think it's more based on Brunell's 2 years and 1 game here. While last year he had some good games early, he fell off yet again, the year before that it was the most dismal job by a QB I've ever seen.

And MB having one triple-teamed receiver to throw to had nothing to do with his drop in his performanace. Sorry, not buying that.

i agree, he did a decent job last year but hes so 50/50 we need more consistency at the debatbly the most important position on the team

You don't start Campbell until at least one of two things happen: At the midpoint of our season, we already have 7 losses, or Brunell is hurt. We lose one game, ONE FREAKIN' GAME, and people want to sit Mark Brunell down ---- and that isn't even the BIGGEST REASON why we lost against Minnesota this past Monday night. Why don't we sit all of our starting secondary down? Our defensive line? Our special teamers? Do you think those guys did their best? How is starting a new QB going to help our secondary out? Have this conversation after we're mathematically out of the playoffs for Pete's sake. Mark Brunell gives us our best chance to win.

this whole thread is stupid. after just 1, thats right 1 loss, you are ready to call it a season and hand the reins over to someone who hasnt played a down in this league? if you can recall just last season, we were just 1 win away from playing in the nfc championship. i know its along time ago, but im not jumping ship just yet

The point of the thread is to see how many people would agree that having a losing season would benefit us down the road if we started our "future" quarterback. The same thing the Giants did with Eli.

Just because the Giants rushed Eli into the starting position with some success doesn't mean we should do it with Jason, and it also doesn't mean we would have the same success. Gibbs is about winning now along with building a future. For Pete's sake, how many more years are you skins fans willing to throw away for the sake of the future? Don't you want to have the guys out on the field now that will give the Redskins the best chance at winning? Don't you think Gibbs, Saunders, Williams, and the rest of the coaching stuff know what they're doing?

It's way too early to be making this kind of decision, or even discussing it for that matter.

i thought i had little patience!

i think alot of skins fans are just getting accustomed to losing. i remember along time ago when mediocre play was not acceptable. brunells play the last 3 years have not been acceptable by anyones standards. i dont think putting campbell in now would be a bad idea he could possibly not do any worse. brunell does not get us in the end zone period we may drive down 4 times but 1 td is unacceptable.

you remember "along time ago"??

mediocre play?

get "us" in the endzone?

don't take this as a personal attack..but I am not so sure that anything that
you've posted here is or isn't based on your own personal disdain for Mark??..

there were several factors that went into MNF's letdown..and you haven't mentioned a single one of them..so cueing into the qb situation is not addressing a thing about the breakdown in blocking.. the soft play from the linebackers and safeties..
whatever Saunders was trying to do..or the simple fact that they were out-coached on the field..
This team allowed themselves to get in the position where stupid penalties and mental errors..affected the outcome..and caused the loss..

Only 19 pts given up by any defense..should win 80% of the games in this league..

I think until you can look around in an un-biased....manner..and avoid the quick-fix mentality

you will only see what you want to see..

3050 yards
