What argument? I only stated the facts!

Maybe facts are not something your comfortable dealing with?

Don't confuse your opinions with fact. The fact is, your opinion is weak.

Portis had another stellar running performance today, as usual he run's through the tackles like he's not wearing a cup, at least we started to get him the ball on occasion useing sweeps, I only saw 1 screen to him and the RB screen was there all day, I saw him tackled by the turf monster 3 or 4 times, it doesn't seem the extra weight is helping if a player's shadow is capable of tackling him. Didn't Portis have carreer day's running against the Chiefs before he became a skin? I wonder what happened between now and then? Oh yea Portis had a boo boo on his calf today I forgot.


What are the odd's Portis scores a TD on the ground before the season end's?
I, too, am starting to wonder why it's ok for Brunell to fumble, but not ok for Ramsey. BTW - Brunell had more than his share of fumbles last year too. To paraphrase a line from George Orwell's "Animal Farm" - Every player is equal, but some are more equal than others, right?

Brunell is playing far better than he did last year, which isn't really saying much. But those fumbles are becoming an increasing concern.

Cause Brunell is a much smarter player, instead of throwing it away, or running for a first down, Ramsey tires to air it into double coverage.

Hey everybody, Ramsey got benched because he threw too many games away ie INTs. Neither took all the blame for being sacked because of poor pass protection.

Last year was last year. In my humble opinion, it's pointless to argue what happened a season ago. We might as well sit here and waste our team arguing about how bad Heath Suler played for us back in the mid 90's.

And, also in my opinion, Brunell's performance this year is saying quite a bit.

The reason many prefer Brunell to Ramsey is not because he fumbles any less. In fact, they both fumble as much as the other when hit by D-linemen. The simple reason is that a healthy Brunell is more accurate and throws fewer INTs - that is indisputable.

True. Hopefully Betts returns soon.

Re: Same Ol' Story

Brunell is a HUGE bright spot in our offense this year and his play is night and day compared to last year.

I'm not even sure what some of you are suggesting, are you saying we should now go back to Ramsey??

Turnovers are never ok, but Brunell is playing lights out, a 91.5 QB rating, 9 TD vs. only 2 INT!! By the way he has 3 fumbles on the year, so it's definitely not a weekly thing with him, I know it might make your weak argument stronger to stretch the truth a bit, but let's deal with the facts shall we?

C'mon, what more do some of you want??

I guess for some it's just really hard to admit you were wrong in questioning the QB switch. It's ok to admit a Hall of Fame coach knows more than you, seriously, it's alright!

Maybe they think they're onto something with Lavar?

I think all the things that have unfolded, are the best that we have.

I'm not ashamed of my Gibbs worshiping ways.

I'll put my trust in him and his staff over the media and the fans any day.
