Re: Can We Bench Brunell Now

i always thought brunell gave the skins the best chance at winning. i do not believe that anymore. and no, it wasnt all his fault. but if santana doesnt keep on making plays, brunell sucks, plain and simple

Re: Can We Bench Brunell Now

The D ruined our season, not Brunell.

I still think Brunell gives us the best chance to win this year, but it looks like this year is over. May as well see what Campbell can do.

I think they'll give Brunell one last chance and see if we can pull off a miracle in Indy. If (when) we lose to Indy, they'll groom Campbell during the bye week and start him after that.

Re: Can We Bench Brunell Now

how much worse can it get with starting JC? we arent winning the SB this year and no SB is a failure for the skins this year. if he is our qb of the future he needs to learn by playing so now is a better time than never. but i dont think gibbs will start him this week v.s. the colts on the road but if we lose to the colts he will have a bye week to get JC ready for the home game v.s. dallas. if were 2-5 JC needs to be in there bottom line. if hes not gibbs needs someone to get his head out of his ass because brunell is not the future

Re: Can We Bench Brunell Now

I'm all for benching Brunell simply to get a lot of ignorant people to shut the fuck up.

Maybe if we bench Brunell, put in JC and have the obvious results of having an inexperienced QB lead the team, people will recognize the slew of other problems facing us and realize that the QB position is the least of our worries. Worries like Travis Henry rushing for 178 yards, not picking off or pressuring a rookie QB with 3 starts, not giving CP more than 15 carries and blitzes so predictable a band of retarded puppies could defend them.

Some of us calling for Brunell to be benched are well aware of "other" team issue that must be dealt with. I have no delusions that a Rookie QB will step in a win a bunch of games right away. What you fail to recognize is that Brunell is not getting the job done at his position and I would much rather see JC get the experience now while the "other" issues are dealt with concurrently. That way hopefully the team is ready to rock and roll next season and beyond. If not, well you learned that you don't have the future QB in JC and we can draft or sign appropriately in the off-season.

BTW, I'm not ignorant and I won't STFU...at least not until we get to see JC under center for better of for worse. Maybe you should consider limiting your comments to your own opinions instead of insulting people. FWIW, having a different opinion does not make people ignorant.

Re: Can We Bench Brunell Now

brunell has no arm cant throw the deep ball to our wrs. the one good pass was to loyld. the offense is playing conservative because of brunells lack of arm. he has looked last year and the jax game because of moss. like i said if we lose next week it is time for JC.

I think it is reasonable to put cample in if we lose next week only becuase it will be a bye week and he can prepare, Im just afraid he will be another Patrick Ramsey

That is a legitamite fear and I can understand that. The fact is, no one knows because the kid hasn't touched a ball in an actual game yet. He could be the next coming of Joe Montana, but we'll simply never know until we decide to play him. I believe the team is better off finding out this year than in game 4 of next year.
