C'mon he's the only guy that kept the Bears in the game. After the big INT in the first half, we have the ball with 2:45 to go and have the chance to regain momentum and bury the Bears. But for some reason, we simply ran out the clock. It had to be obvious to every player on the field that Gibbs didn't trust Brunell to handle the ball. My question is with the SKins having the lead at half in four out of five games, would't it seem we'd want to go into the half with more than three points and not still licking our wounds from the 70yd INT? Thank goodness our D is incredible. Just hope they can keep it together because 13 points will beat nobody in our upcoming schedule.
The last time a team scored a TD on our Defense was Dallas. Teams are not scoring on an average about 7 points so I disagree with you on that point. The year the Ravens won the SuperBowl, they only allowed 10 points at best and their offense looked a lot like ours. The difference is these players are all new to Gibb's system and everybody said give the offense until week six. Now everyone wants to separate Brunell from Portis and the yards he gained. To hell with the fact that Brunell lead the team to a TD in the first half. Statistics have gone our way in the last four weeks while the score has not reflected the stats. I'll take the ugly win over a high scoring loss.
