I have been a big supporter of Brunnell since last year. (not his first year!!) I find it hard to put ALL the blame on one guy in a game like that. I want to see Brunell and this offense when Portis is healthy for me to make a decision. He looks bad, I can see that. We got out played all over the field. the O-line was getting abused pass and run blocking. Our D was getting used on 3rd down. Other than Rock's TD, we were outplayed everwhere. I go back to a very early play in the game when the momentum switched. we were somewhat moving the ball, and it was 3rd and 1. it was in the 1st quarter, maybe 2nd. and they TOSS the ball to Betts ON THIRD AND 1!!!!!. We get mushed for a yard loss. I just dont understand why we kept calling that play. sweep right, stretch right. we had to be -10 yards on that. and why dont you have duckett or sellers running the damn ball up the middle or behind Thomas on 3rd and 1. the play calling last night on some plays was questionable. on both sides. on 3 and a mile williams sends 3 guys after bledsoe, after eating some Texas Toast and drinking a beer in the pocket, bledsoe and Dallas converted another 3rd down. I just dont see the same intensity from our D, and we look confused and unmotivated on offense. I think we screwed up the team chemistry bringing some of these NEW guys in. Andrea Carter has to be the worst of them all. He gets pushed all over the damn field and Arch looks like a 9 year old sitting in a Grad school Med program. is he that damn dumb?
