Anyway you look at the Brunell signing was a bust even if he leads us to a winning season. He was brought in as vet with what was thought alot of skills and 3 to 4 more years as a starting QB. Gibbs was wrong but he cannot step infront of the press and say that at this time the guy is still a player on this team. I do not think Gibbs played him for 9 games because he gave him a huge contract. I think he stayed in because Ramsey showed nothing in preason just as Brunell and Gibbs was hoping that our offense and Brunell would improve. Which it did not. I still say we have to face the fact that neither Ramsey nor Brunell are QBs of the skins future and that soon we will be watching Campbell as our starter. That will give Gibbs about 3 1/2 years to groom Campbell and make a run at the SB. I would love to say otherwise but I don't think its likley that either Ramsey or Brunell will turn things around and lead us to the playoffs this year. I would love to be proven wrong but I just don't see that happening. We could have a winning season but it will probaly not be because of an outstanding perfomance from either Mark or Ramsey.I'm sorry I did not post as a reply but this is a reply to Paulskinfan.
