Handing the ball has nothing to do with scrambling to avoid the sack. We all know that Ramsey would be starting if he were mobile and didn't hold on to the ball too long. The fact that Brunell's assignment has been to manage the possession with handing off to Portis is not unique when you look at the Giants, Patriots or most of the successful teams. The offensive line will determine Portis's success and avoid stupid penalties. Brunell will stay in the game as long as he doesn't make a barage of mistakes that lose the game. It's not pretty, but that's where we are right now.
