Re: Brunell to Birds?

I can't believe no one has said anything about giving us a LG in return!

Brunell is too valuable as a backup. We would trade him if we got something major in return, .e.g. a starting LG or DE.

Re: Brunell to Birds?

I just heard Clayton and Mort speculate and neither mentioned Brunell. Mort said the Falcons will likely be looking for depth, not a starter. Unless someone like Simms becomes available, but again no mention of Brunell at all.

This is not worth a discussion. Not going to happen. Gibbs won't let it happen.

If I were the Falcons, I would be angling for Todd Collins. He's worth a draft choice. Brunell is not.

THAT's worth a discussion (and I am not advocating that).

I would trade Touchdown Jesus for a half empty bottle of Milwaukee's Best Ice and feel guilty for taking advantage of them.

Why do you have to keep mocking his faith?

It isn't mocking his faith. Touchdown Jesus is a symbol at Notre Dame. If you have a problem with it, talk to them.

There is nothing blasphemous about calling Brunell Touchdown Jesus, in fact many people including myself, find it amusing. Find something else to bitch at me about.

As I mentioned before, I am a Christian and there is no negativity towards my faith in the nickname.

Are you really this touchy? You need a few two-a-days.

If we can get a first day pick for Brunell, then this is a no brainer.

If we can't then it's just not worth it.

Brunell should be traded if Collins is doing good now ,maybe guys like Texans would use a nice back up or any team that needs a back up

i say trade collins, keep brunell. brunell might be able to pull 1-2 games out of his ass if needed, i dont see forsee collins making any impact at all if called upon.

Brunell will not go anywhere this season.

And when he makes the Superbowl appearance you'll be happy too!

People had written off Doug Williams before he won Superbowl MVP!!!

Re: Brunell to Birds?

Does everyone here understand that we didn't draft CARSON PALMER? With some of these posts you'd think we did. Brunnel sucks. As a starter. As a back up, he's slightly above average. Why are we placing so much emphasis on getting our rookie QB from a no name school who played against no named talent on our gameday roster in place of a veteran NFL quarterback who knows how to manage games and not turn the ball over? Anyone?

Good post, my thoughts exactly.

Palmer isn't even going to make the active roster, he's practice squad material at best and believe me, nobody is going to be jumping at the chance to snatch him away.
