Brunell sucks
 

He should not be back next season.

Re: Brunell sucks
 

this isn't a ****ing joke right now. save it till after the game.i understand he isn't playing well but that doesn't mean anything bout next year. I am not even gonna entertain this

Re: Brunell sucks
 

guys a moron... not brunell

Re: Brunell sucks
 

I didn't realize Brunnel was playing on defense and thus allowing us to be losing right now. He does look to be a little hindered by the knee but I don't even want to think about where this season might be if we'd stuck with Ramsey. But great way to bail on the guy who's help lead our offense this year :vomit:

Re: Brunell sucks
 

We're flat on both sides of the ball right now, everyone needs to step the F up and earn this playoff spot.

We can't let the Eagles piss on our season!

Re: Brunell sucks
 

Can we stop with the hating for now?!

Re: Brunell sucks
 

Healthy = Brunell ROCKS
Hurt = Brunell SUCKS

and that's pretty much it.

i really think Ramsey has learned enough from Brunell to be out there when Brunell is hurt. we're all painfully familiar what a hurt Brunell can do to our air game (2004)

Re: Brunell sucks
 

Yeah, Brunell really scared me, thank god our defense turned it up about 20 notches.

Re: Brunell sucks
 

What's the matter with you???? He's playing with an injured knee and came up with a HUGE 12yard run to keep the O on the field. Maybe you were just being silly.

Re: Brunell sucks
 

He was 9-25 against a depleeted Eagles secondary. Yeah he had some good clutch runs to keep drives along, and I will say he DID PLAY HIS HEART OUT, but, I think we still would have won with Ramsey, and this week Brunell could have healed some.

At least we won!!!!

YEAH!!!
OFF TO TAMPA!!

Re: Brunell sucks
 

No ****ing enough. The thing is the reason why Brunell is better for US!than Ramsey: we are a running team ramsey throws INTS. Done Brunell does not throw INTS!!! He wil not get as many yards as ramsey but he is calm cool and collected. We rush for 150+ and that is the type of QB we need.

HE was hurt. I can't believe you want him gone next year. Some people still hold a grudge from last year

Re: Brunell sucks
 

brunell was manageable today. Yeah he didn't complete a lot of passes, but give the guy some credit. Without him we wouldn't be in the playoffs.

Re: Brunell sucks
 

I think he's still a good QB.. but if he's hurt... he's inaccurate, and therefore we risk losing, because we risk turnovers and we turn one demensional. That worries me that we can't put PR in there when Brunell is only about 70% healthy and ineffective... also why risk further injury to Brunell... but oh well...

Brunell should definately be back next year.

New member here, first post.

Brunell looked awful in the first half, but was pretty solid in the second half, almost as if he had more confidence in his knee to be able to plant it firmly. The balls weren't sailing on him as much.

But in terms of getting rid of him, besides this being a topic best discussed after the season, you only get rid of someone if you've got a better option.

Re: Brunell sucks
 

is this guy for real? brunell sucks come on!!! this guy was breathing life into this offense before anyone was doin anything. is this guy really a fan? one bad game and your ready to jump ship. do your home work eagles- redskins never an easy game no matter whos the better team.

Re: Brunell sucks
 

Come on guys let's not pile on Brunell. Like I've said before the guy has heart and smarts. And J.G. is a much better evailuater of talent than all of us here. Let's get some pay back from tampax bay!

Re: Brunell sucks
 

Mark Brunell is as good as the Wideouts make him. James Thrash and Taylor Jacobs are non-existent on offense and have made it difficult for Moss to separate from a triple team coverage. Thrash runs some of the worst routes I have seen. I want him to do well, but he has not been able to give 100% do to injuries. His routes are not sharp and his defensive skills are horrible. He just gave up on the play after the CB caught the INT. We will be shopping for Brandon Llyod on the off season.

Re: Brunell sucks
 

Bozzy come om this guy has been pretty effecient. Most of the high ball you can sttribute to him not putting weight on the front foot. Butt this guy has been "spicy" of late.

Re: Brunell sucks
 

Sorry, but this is a stupid thread.

Re: Brunell sucks
 

[QUOTE=skinsguy]Sorry, but this is a stupid thread.[/QUOT

Maybe it began during the game and not after. Either way it is a pretty pathetic commentary from someone who claims to love the Redskins. Brunell is the main reason we are even celebrating today. No win in Dallas and we are waiting for Dallas to lose even if we would have won.

Re: Brunell sucks
 

Please... this thread should have never been posted.

Re: Brunell sucks
 

i agree.how can anyone that considers themselves a true skins fan even think that about mark brunell?he played a very manageable game today,threw the ball away when needed,and didnt make mistakes.and guess what,WE ARE IN THE PLAYOFFS.nuff said

They were only missing one starter on there secondary. Not sure I would say that it was depleted. Why even be a fan if you can't be happy with a win much less playoffs. Take this garbage somewhere else man. It was a division game on the road. You should know he isn't going to put up numbers he has been at home.

Re: Brunell sucks
 

Brunell is the our qb for the next couple of years until campbell is ready. this brunell reminds me of the one in jacksonville when he was the next coming of steve young. just wait until next year when we add a solid number 2 wr( brandon lloyd sounds real good) but this will be a deadly offense no matter what we just need a solid number 2. Along with one hell of a pass rusher for the defense (robert mathis of colts is the best option that I can see)

Re: Brunell sucks
 

[QUOTE=Sean"Big Hurt"Taylor]Brunell is the our qb for the next couple of years until campbell is ready.[/QUOTE]Or Steve McNair?

Re: Brunell sucks
 

If Joe Gibbs has proven anything, it's this:

When he has a very good offensive line and outstanding running backs and wide receivers (and tight ends for that matter, since they are a Gibbs trademark) then all he needs is a GOOD quarterback to be successful, he doesn't require a Hall-of-Famer to get the team to the playoffs.

Brunell is no worse a quarterback than Mark Rypien. Sure, like everyone else, I was down on Brunell last year and I couldn't understand, for the life of me, why Gibbs stuck with him, but I don't question a Hall-of-Fame coach, he has his reasons. the Post's Tony Kornheiser has done a 180 on Brunell and I think that most of us have also. He's smart and capable and fits into this offensive scheme very well.

I feel sorry for Ramsey, though. I hope he gets a chance somewhere else if not here.

That's interesting, but somehow I don't see that happening.

No... Sunra simply said that to assert, after Brunnell's solid QB'ing and great TD to INT ratio got us to the playoffs, to advocate dumping Brunnell after one bad half was "pretty pathetic commentary from someone who claims to love the Redskins".

Nobody was told to shut up. You are absolutely correct - generally speaking, everyone is entitled to voice their opinion on this site. Some opinions - like calling for dumping Brunnell - are simply more moronic than others. Sunra was merely highlighting the idiocy of such a call after Brunnell's accomplishments this season - especially from a Redskins fan as such a person is one whom others would expect to have Brunnell's accomplishments during the course of the season.

I don't think Brunell sucks at all, and this thread is a bit of a knee jerk, but I do think it's funny that hating on Brunell makes someone not a Redskin fan. And yet, there's a 20 page thread of LaVar hating, which is perfectly acceptable, when he's one of the longest tenured, and most popular Redskins. :frusty:

Re: Brunell sucks
 

I'll admit I was down on Brunell in the first half like many others here. But I will give the man his props. He played like a smart savvy veteran in the second half which is why Gibbs has him running the show in the first place. He plays with guts and determination and a desire to win. I think it was in the middle of the 4th quarter when we had the ball and he dropped back to pass, saw daylight, and ran for a first down. Now if I were him especially after getting my knee whacked against the Giants, the last thing I'd be thinking about is running. Props to Brunell for showing some guts and playing to win. He may not be the most gifted QB on the field today, but he's experienced, he's smart, and he does what it takes to win. In the end, that's what counts.

Re: Brunell sucks
 

I used to hate Brunell last year I will be the first to admit it, he brought me around this year and today while wearing my Brunell jersey I never gave up faith, I trust Brunell from the first Dallas game til he calls it quits, as I do with Gibbs

Re: Brunell sucks
 

Brunnel got us here.

Re: Brunell sucks
 

check this quote: "Let's settle this question once and for all. Brunell is still an extremely viable NFL quarterback, a fine leader with physical courage who sees the whole field and whose arms and legs are very much alive."

so basically, if you still think he sucks (sitting here at 10-6 in the playoffs), you're worse than sally jenkins (this is her quote).

Re: Brunell sucks
 

[QUOTE=Bozzy]He should not be back next season.[/QUOTE]

What drugs are you on??? Yes he didn't do well today but he was hurt!!! I would have put in Ramsey because a hurt Burnell was maybe a little worst. If both are well hand down Burnell is better then Ramsey!!! So lay of the drugs and just say NO!!!! :smashfrea

Re: Brunell sucks
 

Brunell got us to the playoffs, and I think he wants payback time in Tampa.

Re: Brunell sucks
 

Brunell has started 15 of 16 games and we're in the playoffs. His main target Santana Moss just broke the all time Redskins receiving record by Bobby Mitchell set over 40 years ago. Glad we don't have Vick, Favre, Bledsoe, Brees, McNabb, Collins, Carr, Harrington, etc. We're in!!! Brunell has us in the playoffs!!!
GO REDSKINS!!!

Re: Brunell sucks
 

I think Brunell has 1 mode and that's look for Moss, if that option is closed he immediatly checks off to Cooley, the problem that arouse today is Philli took Cooley away from him, essentially removing his saftey net, Brunell doesn't seem to be able to look for the #2 reciever. He did make a big play to Thrash and had all he could do to reach him, his deep ball stay's in the air a long time, you have to be pretty wide open for the defender not to be able to close in on it as Thrash was.

He defiently was off target today, but I think Philli's coverage had as much to do with that as his injury. The problem that we have is Tampa saw exactly what the Eagles did and will attempt to do the same thing to us next week.

This is Brunell's season to win or lose, I still stand firm on my stance that we would be a better team with Ramsey at the controls, but I would be worried at this point in the season to have Ramsey playing in a big playoff game without the luxory of playing in an offense for a legitamate amount of playing time. But unless Brunell can't walk Gibbs isn't going to replace him no matter how bad he plays, it was pretty obvious that Brunell wasen't ready to play, if that wasen't the case we will have a problem come saturday, hopefully he heals up by then, we can't rely on TO's by the opposition to bail us out.

Re: Brunell sucks
 

I'm sure glad we didn't have chat boards when Sonny was lofting those floaters late in his career. We would never have allowed him to stay in Washington to do the game-day analysis.
