Here are some guys with relatively comparable numbers to Brunell this weekend:

Michael Vick was 10/18 for 148 yards on Sunday. Yet the Falcons won 24-10 over the Panthers.

Marc Bulger was 17/25 for 186 yards. Rams won 24-14 over the Niners (yes I realize it was the Niners)

Jake Plummer was 13/31 for 138 yards. Broncos won 16-13 over the Bucs (yes I realize it was the Bucs)

Broncos, Rams, and Falcons all had one thing in common that the Redskins were lacking-mistake free football, i.e. no turnovers. Brunell was not responsible for Portis' fumble and he put the ball where no one but Coles could catch it, and Coles did catch it. He has to be able to hold onto the ball on the way down, it's not like he get leveled and someone jarred the ball loose.
