The last especially is bothersome, I saw enough of Mark Brunell last year to not want to see him start again. Gibbs has tipped his hand with how he managed the QBs. Ramsey was cleared to play, Gibbs stuck with Brunell, in the post game Gibbs praised Brunell, mute on Ramsey save focusing on how the 'team' has not learned their lesson regarding turnovers, although by team he really meant Ramsey and Brown.
Lastly in sports there is no greater way to regain the confidence of your teammates and the fans then to pick yourself up off the matt and make a comeback after being hurt. Even though I am not a NY Knicks fan, and it was before my time I know of Willis Reed coming out and playing hurt. If Gibbs thought anything of Ramsey he would have given him a chance on the first possesion after half-time, instead he stuck with his precious Brunell. With Brunell we will play not to loose, which almost always results in not winning, case in point the prevent defence. For myself this is why I am frustrated.

I agree that some teams we simply aren't going to be able to beat simply by getting Field Goals, no matter how well the offense moves.
However, the Bears are one of those teams we can-and did-beat with only field goals. Plus, no matter how much the offense improves this year the defense is the best part of this team and when in doubt the game will and should be put in their hands.
Also, Ramsey had a neck injury and may have suffered a concussion. Personally, I believe that with injuries like that no matter how the player says he feels you don't bring him back in that game. Let him take the rest of the day off then reassess the next day. Those injuries are too serious to risk further damage.
