Quarterback by comittee
 
I was sitting in my closet, dorm room, and I had a epiphany, what if Gibbsy is trying someing new? Much like the runningback by comittee that used to exist in Philly, we might be engaging in a quarterback by comittee situation in DC. Brunnell may start, but that does not mean that P. Ram might not come into the game, and throw the long ball where Brunnell cannot.

Yes, I do realize that this is a stupid idea, but entertain me

Doesn't work in the NFL. I've seen other coaches try this (in the NFL) with little or no success.

Didn't work for the Buckeyes last week against Texas either.

Doubt it. My guess is only an injury or a long run of bad play gets Ramsey back in there.

If there were to happen it would will be a long-long season for the 'Skins.

Why would he do that when Brunell has shown the ability to throw the deep pass? In fact, Ramsey has underthrown more balls this year than anytime as a QB. It's almost like a role reversal.

if he alternated them every series I'd be fine with that

There was a guy nick-named Slash that did it for Pittsburg...

I think Ramsey compares pretty well.:silly:

Ballcoach, is that you?

Not Gibbs he would never do it. He wants a commodity that is consistent this system would debase Gibster's entire philosophy.

Remember when Wayne Fonts coached the Lions and he switched between the 3 QBs every week? It was like he spun a wheel to decide who was the starter. The guys on ESPN would make fun of it almost every week, I even started too feel bad for Detroit fans. My point is swicthing back and forth between QBs is NEVER a good idea.

Someone compared Patrick Ramsey to Kordell Stewart. Go read the archives of my website and you'll see that I don't think a whole lot of Kordell Stewart as a QB. However, he has been the QB on a team that made it to the Super Bowl [and lost] which is a level/stature that Patrick Ramsey can only dream about.

In terms of "accomplishments", Ramsey is nowhere near Kordell Stewart. In terms of potential [translation: hasn't accomplished anything yet] Ramsey can be the equal or better than any QB in history.

Sadly, I have to inform all of you that he is not equal to or better than any QB in history. [sigh!] :banghead:

I think the Ramsey/Kordell Stewart comparison was a joke.

I have had a week to calm down about us starting Brunell. I dont think it's the QB position where Gibbs has made an mistake. I think its our WR's we dont have a big possesion WR. We didnt grab Mike Williams in the draft i thought this was a mistake, but Rogers seems to a good CB. So i will not say it was a bad move yet. We traded Gardner a big WR he didnt want to be here to cant argue that move. So going into training camp we had McCants and Dyson as big WR. Released McCants and Dyson. So left with Moss(small) Patten(small) Trash(small) Jacobs(often injured) and brown(small). My point is if we run the ball alot and dont let the QB lose the game we better have a good kicker. ex. on a third and goal from the 5 lets say. we dont have a big WR to go to. Cooley is an option but D's are keying on him this year. So we need to Royal to step in the goaline situations or hope portis can pound it in. The goaline offense i think our big weakness on offense. I want TD's more often than FG's and i am sure most of skins fan do to.

We were just spoiled with Art Monk for all those years! The perfect possession receiver!

I brought up Stewart but in comparison to Brunell... as a QB that was once good, but not worth starting now, and yeah it was a joke.

i think he might be on to something. sure the defense would know when we'd be more inclined to pass and stuff; but we cud mix it up. like do a line change and swap the entire D for the entire O (maybe ST cud play QB!!!!!!). this would work in my opinion because then we could say we have a top 5 team on the field. maybe the talent will carry over. then we cud just use the offense team as backups for defense and cheerleaders and waterpeople. (this could maybe help save money on the expenses of the top revenue-producing franchise!) we could maybe win Super Bowl $$$ again!

What team did Kordell take to the Super Bowl? Kordell took the Steelers to the AFC Championship game and lost to NE the year NE won their 1st SB. If you are talking about the SB the Steelers lost To Dallas, then the Steeler QB was Neil O'Donnel.

That said, Kordell has done more & won more as a QB than PR so I'd have to say Kordell was a better QB than PR.
