Moss does an excellent job after the catch, but dont crap on Brunell for consistently getting the ball to him in space.
If I remember correctly, Brunell hit Lloyd today for a 51 yard completion. So there goes that no deep ball arguement.
Season is done, eh? I didn't know it was January already. The reason you stay with Brunell is because he gives you the best chance to win. I know that. Joe Gibbs knows that. Al Saunders knows that. You play Campbell only when winning now takes a back seat to winning in the future. I don't think that point has been reached, and I hope no one else does. That would be a very closed minded, reactionary view of a poorly played game.
Although there is no comparision between Brunell and Palmer or McNabb, you are missing my point. What would you say to an Eagle fan who said that he would renounce his fanship if they didnt bench McNabb for such a horrible performance. I would probably start laughing at them. Which is what I would do now if the situation wasn't so dire here.

You're arguement about the lloyd pass has no merit. That was a hail mary pass if I have ever seen one.
I disagree that this season is not over. I am not being 'reactionary' I am simply looking at the facts. We are 2-4 due to poor play across the board with no quick fixes in sight. Furthermore we are facing a brutal schedule during the remaining 10 games. Sticking with Brunell because hes your "best" option to win is shortsighted. First I disagree that he's our best option to win now...he's is a significant part of our offensive problems IMHO. Second, what makes you believe Brunell is going to be able to win 8 of the next 10, which is what it will take for us to have a shot at the Wildcard?
Last, I have no idea what you are talking about with your renouncing fanship reference...I am a diehard fan...have been for 25 years since I was old enough to understand what I was watching. I'm not jumping ship...I will be here for the long haul, and I want whats best for the team. It is arrogant to believe your position makes you somehow more of a fan.
