Matty; As bad as Brunell looked last year, throwing passes short of the receivers, in the dirt, in the stands, just awful, Ramsey still could not get off the pine. Just think about that for a minute: Any coach in any league anywhere in the world would have benched him, but Gibbs stuck with him despite how badly he was playing because he knew his options were limited. Brunell's terrible play was an indictment of what little faith Gibbs had in Ramsey, and he wouldn't have taken Brunell out when he did except for fear of mutiny at Fed-X on Sundays. It's really sad to think a coach would tolerate that kind of play before going to his first alternative.
