"He's got guts galore," Gibbs said about Brunell

Marks Problem His His Arm Strength Its Not There Anymore.last Week He Missed Passes Over The Middle Cause Hes Trying To Put To Much On The Ball To Make The Passes And It Gets Away From Him.gibbs Sees It As Well That Why We Dont Go Deep Until Its To Late

Well, sometimes it is better to throw the ball away rather than to try to make a play when the play just isn't there. Turnovers can really hurt a team and I'd rather see Brunell throwing the ball away and having 2nd and 10 or 3rd and 10 rather than him forcing the ball downfield and throwing a pick.


What I was saying is just because a QB throw's the ball away doesn't mean there was nothing there, it can be the QB is just to incompetent to execute what is there, and if your slow to read a defense or your arm strength is lacking you can throw the ball away, but a good QB would make a play, I believe a lot of that is going on with Brunell.

but even with the throwaways, he's still turning it over an awful lot...

Saying a QB has guts is like saying a girl has a "nice personality".

It would be wonderful if we could take a balance between Brunell and Ramsey and have a QB with the guts to stay in the pocket but the brain to know when not to force it. Ramsey turns it over forcing the ball. Brunell turns it over not getting rid of it quickly enough.

Maybe Hasselback??? hmmm...

Does Ben Roethlisberger have a brother? :laughing-

What QBs are out there that will be free agents next year that we can pursue......if things get worse and Gibbs doesn't play Ramsey is that a message Ramsey ain't Gibbs kinda QB????????????

not necessarily. Mabye Gibbs is treating Ramsey like a ramsey and letting him learn for a year then giving him the reigns next year. Ramsey clearly wasnt ready to be the starter this year, and even though Brunell is sucking, if he beleive ramsey is the future here he wants to make sure that hes ready
