| QB Battle Although everyone in the media seems to have given Brunell the starting job at qb already, how much do you think Ramsey will have to outplay Brunell for Gibbs to name him the starter? |

| I think he would just have to edge him out to get the job. But based on both of their histories, I give it a 1 in 1000 shot. A couple guys already noted in the first practices that Ramsey was "slow" or "hesitant". That has been his biggest problem in the past, and will take time to overcome.

| I think Ramsey will have to really outplay Brunell to win the job. If it's neck and neck Brunell will get the nod based on his experience. Ramsey really needs to outshine him, I don't see it happening. |

| Ramsey always wants the big play, to go deep... brunell and hasslebeck are much better about getting the ball off quickly, and brunell is better on short dump offs because of that. but it really doesn't matter cause portis thinks they're both jerks ![]()

| PR is the 3rd best QB on this team. For a 1st round pick he has proven to be a major disappointment. |

Ramsey is still green and has only 16 starts under his belt. He nearly got killed in Spurrier's joke of an offense but he kept getting up for more. Under the circumstances I'd say it's very premature to label him disappointing. He would be the #1 guy on alot of teams around the league. The same can't be said of Hasselbeck. | |

But I do think he really has to outplay Brunnell to start, at least early on. | |

| I love all this talk about the QB battle because it actually means that we have a couple of good guys to choose from. Both guys will play this year (what are the chances an NFL starter makes it through the whole season without getting nicked up) and the fact that we have these two helps our chances. I think Brunell will get the nod initially, but I can see Ramsey playing later in the year, ESPECIALLY IN THE PLAYOFF RUN! Here's hoping. |

| Carr is on an expansion team and has played well considering, Harrington plays for the wost organization in the league. I'd say cant tell on Carr and a bit of a disappointment for Harrington. Maybe its too soon to call him a disappointment (in the long term) but as of right now he is the 3rd best QB on this team and that is disappointing for a 1st round pick. |

| Ramsey has proved that he can play in the NFL. He had rough year last season, but it was only his 2nd year. Plus he was beat up badly and had no running game to support him. Alot of teams have alot of respect for him because for all the beatings he took. He kept on getting up and never criticized the O-Line or the coaching staff. The kid is tough and he will be a good QB in this league. If he's a dissapointment, then why was Chicago, and Miami interested in trading for him? |

| Irish You might want to look at Joe Crisp's camp reports, or the newspaper reports. Both P.Ram, & Brunnel are better than Hasselbeck. Ram is faster on the throw, and better at getting back and set than Brunnel. Which means, HOF Coach Gibbs likes Brunnel for his smarts & leadership, and P. Ram for his grittiness. A team simply has to have two, quality starting QB's. Neither would start and end the entire season! Along the way, the starter will get dinged up, and need replacing. My choice would not have been to trade for Brunnel. But HOF Coach Gibbs has a different plan. Depth is key, and is critical.
