I agree wholeheartedly. I don't care if they win by 1 point or 21 points at this point..just a win would be nice. But if they don't win, I would much rather see Ramsey at the helm getting the much needed experience. Brunell is NOT the Skins QB of the future, Ramsey is. And he needs the experience and confidence. What is Brunell teaching Ramsey? The only thing I can think of that Brunell is teaching Ramsey is how NOT to be a good QB in the NFL. Don't get me wrong, I don't blame it all on Brunell. I think other offensive players (like the offensive line) have got to step up. But he is a leader and is supposed to help the coaches motivate the team. If you look on the sideslines, most of the time you will see Brunell stuck up Gibbs butt instead of over with his offensive line, receivers and backs talking to them. I just don't see Brunell being the leader of the offense. And actually, I really don't see Ramsey being the leader for that matter either (at least not right now). However, both my last comments are my opinion only. I do however see Ramsey stepping into that role once he gains some confidence and experience, but I don't see him doing that sitting on the bench.

All in all, it's time for someone on the offensive side of the field to step up and take charge. Whether it is Ramsey, Brunell, Portis, Coles, or whoever. Someone needs to get in the offense's face and get them motivated. Not just the coaches but the players too. If someone was paying me 22 million dollars, you best believe that I would be running up and down the sidelines yelling and screaming or whatever it takes to get the offense motivated. The Defense can't do it alone but they sure have tried.

My hat is definitely off to the defense. They have kept the Skins in every game and have given them a chance to win. All that needed was the offense to wake up and realize it.
