I pretty much have the same opinion of Brunell's day as the rest of you. If you read my posts, you'd know that. My only point is its a bad situation to play Campbell next week on so many levels.

I think the difference between myself and GTripp is that he does not believe the season is lost and I now do. I didn't think that it was before today, and I didn't think they had to win every game to salvage it, but I thought they needed to use the emotion of the Dallas win to propel them to win a few in a row. They don't seem to have a run in them.

I would say further that regardless of what happens with Brunell, at the end of the season, they should thank Saunders for all his hard work and send him on his way.

Good...neh great point. Most of the difference in opinion is that the season is over.

But this game was a disaster going in. Phili is money coming off the bye, had homefield on us, and that was when we HAD Portis. Expecting us, much less anyone, to win in these conditions would have been wishful thinking.

That said, if the season wasn't over BEFORE this game, why is it now? We did get crushed...but it's not something I was unprepared for. I don't think it's going to linger with us, theres no evidence to support the argument that it will. It's just one more in the L column, nothing more.

I think when the season started most would have said this would be a tough win, even if all units played well. Unfortunately, when you lose an "easy" win like the Titans game suddenly a tough win becomes a must win. Losing the games we're "expected" to lose would, I think, be easier to deal with if we won the games we're supposed to win.
