17/32 192 yds. is not great but its not bad either. No INTs, no fumbles, no sacks.
Brunell's numbers are a reflection of a struggling offense overall. The 45 yard pass to Coles led to the 1 yd run by Portis. Brunell is moving the ball. We should have gotten into the endzone in the fourth quarter rather than kicked a field goal. Time management is still a problem that will be resolved sooner than later.

I originally said 10-6, thinking that they stay at about .500 through mid-season, by then the offense would jell and they'd take off.
Now I think it may take a little longer, but I think 9-7 isn't out of the question.
I see everyone blaming Brunell. Yeah, he hasn't lit it up, and his throw-aways have been frustrating (for us), but he is Gibbs' guy, and I agree that it is not the time to make that switch (BTW, I'm a big Ramsey supporter). The biggest problem right now is the O-line. They just aren't where they need to be quite yet. There is no way Portis should have been held to under 60 yds rushing by Cleveland! He seemed...as always...to be diving and stretching and fighting for each and every yard he could get, but the holes just weren't there a lot of the time. I think they will get there, but it is taking longer than expected...

9/7-8/8, with meaningful games in December. That's what I said before the seaon, and I'm sticking to it. It feels optimistic right now, but Gibbs and Co will adjust, and the team will jell. (Further, we are about due for a break or two! Why does every bounce, every call, every whatever seem to go against you when you're struggling? I know that it's not every break, but still! We could use some love from the football gods here!!!!;))

8-8... but if they can get it together and first concentrate on getting to 2-3, then .500... i can still see (pray for) a 9-7 season... dependent of course on them getting outta this slump

If we can go 3-3 into our bye week, its a brand new season. We need to concentrate on Baltimore right now, which is a game that I see us winning for some reason. Its Redskins fashion to lose to a team we should whoop the sh*t out of, and then beat a team we should proboly lose too.
