Two words: game management.

It always, ALWAYS gets overlooked. Brunell will be successful for us primarily because he can avoid turnovers. And Matty's right, the health of his legs are of paramount importance. He's AWFUL when his legs hurt (see 2004 and 2005 playoffs). He's the type of QB that needs to get his entire body involved to get enough zip on the ball, he can't rifle the ball off his back foot like Brett Favre. So he needs those legs healthy to plant, drive, and follow through with his delivery.

When the legs are healthy, there honestly aren't more than 10 QBs in the league I'd rather have than him. But when they're banged up, I hope Campbell is ready.
