No, what I am saying is he wants to do it his way and that is with Brunell.

Lets face it he was the only one in the NFL who wanted the guy at least as a starter, and he was the only one who was going to give anything up to get him, let alone 43 mil and a 3rd round pick, so in the eye's of every personel man out there he looks like a baffone, thier all saying I told you so, and he's trying to prove them wrong, which comes down to his inability to admit he royally screwed up with the Brunell signing.

Take a good look at Brunell can anyone say with a straight face he was a good signing? Let alone a horid signing?

If Brunell was playing for the Boy's the last 3 years we would still be laughing at how dumb they are, but because it's us and a Gibbs move, that makes it all right.

The guy is a joke at QB, how many Skins games does Aikmen have to cover do we have to hear him breakdown the QB play and question the decision making of Brunell along with his inability of arm strength to hit a reciever downfield, yes Brunell can throw the ball deep but he has to winde up and put a lot of air under it he cannot snap off a throw and get the ball 40 yards downfield. But until Brunell is removed from the equation everyone will continue to believe that there is no way Gibbs could be wrong, or stubborn, or human.

Signing Mark Brunell isn't like signing a Brett Farve or a Joe Montana, but to assume it was a "horrid" signing is blowing things well out of proportion. Mark hasn't been a bad QB. He hasn't been the playmaker we have all wanted, but he has played smart football overall. You always want to have a good veteran QB playing on the field in front of your younger QBs. When Campbell finally makes his debut, he will be a much better QB because of it.

I really hate to bash MB too much, b/c he used to be a great qb and he's a great person, but...

The way i look at it is, who would you rather have as your qb in the nfc? Or who would MB beat out as qb in the nfc?

I think i would rather have MB than Alex Smith, Leinart (sp?), and, um that might be about it. Am i leaving anyone off? Kitna or MB?? Point is, its there are not alot of qb's worse than mb right now (throw out statistics).
