Ramsey vs. Brunell
 

Just curious to see who most of you start at QB. I tried to start Brunell but have been finding Ramsey to be a little easier to play with. I am just getting the hang of madden (a converted....back....from 2k series). so maybe that has something to do with it....

Just wondering what you guys do

:httr:

In my franchise, Ramsey beat out Brunell. He just played a little better. I think part of the reason is I wasn't used to playing with a lefty QB. Oh well.

I was thinking the same thing about Brunell being lefty

Ramsey. As soon as Brunell starts bitching I trade his old cranky ass.

I simmed my first season and had Brunell set as the starter. For some reason Ramsey ended up playing the majority of the season and put up great numbers. Brunell wanted a trade so I gladly dealt him away. Ramsey is now in the high 90's.

I used Ramsey throughout my entire '04 franchise so I'm just more comfortable with him. I didn't even try a game with Brunell, the lefty thing would take some getting used too I'm sure.

I also simmed through my first season and Ramsey ended up finishing the season as the starter. We went 11-5, but lost to the freaking Giants in the playoffs. Now I just started my first offseason and Brunell was crying about wanting to be traded, so I did to Oakland. I got 3rd rounder for him and picked up a strong safety in the draft. Ramsey is now a 93 in my franchise, and Portis, Arrington, and Coles are all 99's.

whenever i sim as other teams, the skins always are in the super bowl for some reason...hmm. could it be destiny?

i have never been able to get coles up to 99

simming a season with brunell leads me to 8-8 records (-/+ 1), with ramsey its usually 11-5... found that interesting (did 2004 about 30 times over)... portis seems to fracture his forearm 50% of the time too, which is REALLY annoying...

I re-signed and traded Ramsey away when his deal came up, I just got tired of playing with a QB who can't move.

I drafted a guy who has 88 speed and 85 acceleration, his arm strength is only a 77 and accuracy only a 79 but the guy can run like the wind. He's on pace for 1000 yards rushing and rookie of the year honors.

funny thing about Brunell, after my first year where I traded him away and simmed my first season, in season 2 I played against him in the Super Bowl, he took the Dolphins to the bowl and had good #'s too.

guess he just plays better in florida...

I traded Brunell and Iffy to San Fransisco for a Their 1st and 2nd round picks. Then in the offseason I traded my 1st round and San Frans 2nd round to the Bears for their 1st round pick. I signed Brackens and was able to move him in the offseason for another 2nd round pick. Then I was able to package my 2nd and the 2nd I picked up for another 1st round pick. I had 3 1st round picks in the top 20 and was able to draft Marcus Spears from LSU, a TE and a rookie CB that took over the kick return duties after I released Morton.

i've never had problems with a lefty QB...for some reason, when i create a team in NCAA, my QB is always left handed...so that doesn't bother me.

Ramsey beat out Brunell in the Preseason...my guess was against 2nd string defenses, I was able to pummel them in the air with P-Ram. I'm currently 10-0 (started the franchise back in August, but got distracted with NCAA, NASCAR and Tiger Woods to say the least), and P-Ram, Portis and Coles are 1-2-3 for MVP.

I'll most likely trade Brunell in the off-season, draft a QB in the late rounds and settle in.

ramsey is has much stronger THP

so I used hime
