Re: Give Props to Brunell

if you've been reading my earlier posts, i have reluctantly conceded that Brunell shouldn't be benched soon because of the truly disheartening fact Jason Campbell hasn't even trained with the first team in consecutive days since he's been a Redskin. utterly tragic. i becried that sad little fact last week before the Dallas game. i was also impressed with Mark throwing over the middle and putting his INT ratio on the line to actually beat our hated rival last week.

so i hope that clears that up, but your last point, which seems kind of a sore point is a tough one. seems like you are all too cognizant of Brunell's limitations. please reconcile these last two statements by you.

Granted all the limitations are assumed ones (I would argue that they arent actually limitations at all), and YOU, illdefined, are giving reasoning that only Mark Brunell himself knows for sure (and maybe the coaches if there is a mass conspiracy going on). You simply don't have the knowledge necessary to make this statement. Thats not a personal attack, I don't either, as likely no one on this fourm does. But if that's your evidence for him "not cutting it", so be it...I have hundreds of relatively unbiased observations (just as good as yours) and a few key stats that says he is "cutting it".
