Re: The Right Players For The Offense
Through 7 starts:
Drew Bledsoe 2006 53.3% completion 1164 yards 7 TDs, 8 INTs 69.2 QB rating (icky stat, w/e) Mark Brunell 2006 64.1% completion 1465 yards 7 TDs, 3 INTs 90.4 QB rating Why are they twins? Because they are of similar age? Does that make me Lindsay Lohan's twin?

And you're kidding yourself if you think Betts could handle the load. First of all, he's not the "power runner" that everyone seems to think he is. He may be a north/south runner, but if someone puts a hand on him, he's going down. Second, he's not durable. Even though he's only had a handful of starts in his four year career, he's been injured at least once in every season. Hell, even last week, when Brunell checked down to him several times in a row, he looked like he was having trouble getting back to the huddle by the third pass he caught. |

Re: The Right Players For The Offense
I can't believe we're still debating whether CP is a good back or not.
Ridiculous. It's not even worth discussing... seriously. ![]() |

Re: The Right Players For The Offense
Portis is not the freaking problem. No back can run when the other team is stacking 8 men in the box because the opposing quarterback cannot throw over the top. The problem is Mark Brunell, he does not keep the other team honest. Without the deep ball threat, teams will continue to take the running game and short passes away.
BENCH BRUNELL.

Also, I am pleased with Portis' production. He has what, 6 td's? He missed most of 2 games too. So 6 td's in 5 games is outstanding.

Re: The Right Players For The Offense
Mark Brunell 2006
64.1% completion 1465 yards 7 TDs, 3 INTs 90.4 QB rating Say anything you want about how Brunell is "unable to stretch the field" (or any other subjective arguement), but when your numbers look like that and your offense ranks in the top ten in efficiency and scoring, you are not a problem, plain and simple. Hate to bring up this tired arguement, but it's still ridiculous to say otherwise. I apologize on behalf of Mark Brunell for being 37 and not a very sexy player. All he does is produce from the QB position.

Don't forget that passing TD is a stat that is only representitive of a team's red zone tendencies and has little to do with the QB himself. Going into the bye, Portis was second in the NFL in rushing TD's, second only to Tomlinson. Even Betts has a rush TD this season.

Re: The Right Players For The Offense
Let's not forget that the offense is the reason this team has 2 wins as opposed to one or maybe even none if we had the offense of the prior two seasons.
