I think this is the best possible counterpoint against my arguement. Inconsistency is a problem. But I pretty much scratch the Dallas game due to a lack of Portis. Brunell was better than average vs the Giants and pretty good against the Vikings. His stats weren't so hot this week, but I believe he did what he needed to do to have us win. No more, no less.
Inconsistency is a leaguewide issue. It's the nature of the league, and the nature of our offense. Going with Campbell instead of Brunell isn't going to solve ANY problems. Brunell has "struggled" through a 0.5 INT/Game season so far. I can't imagine Campbell would be anywhere near that low. QB rating (shitty stat, IMO) aside, 4/6 of Mark's games look pretty good to me on paper, and the other two I think are subpar performances, but once in which he avoided the game-changing mistake.
If you can keep your QB between great and average week in and week out, I think inconsistency is acceptable.
Fix the defense. That's not even inconsistent, that's just bad.
