Very disappointing Call Playing...could have cost us game!!!

The fourth quarter showed me that Gibbs does not trust Brunnell at all. Look, this is good playcalling if you've got no passing game. Gibbs has clearly recognized this, and he's trying to win without the pass (which is pretty incredible given Gibbs Air-Coryell pedigree).

Which of course begs the question: couldn't Ramsey do at least this? Is he so bad in practice that Gibbs is afraid to start him? Is he so fragile that Gibbs is saving him until the o-line becomes the Hogs, mark II? I say give the kid a shot. He won't have to do much given our D and Portis, but at least we'll begin to learn if we've got a good QB there, or if we have to look to the draft or free agency again.

Gibb's has alway's gone to the running game with a lead in the second half, with the way our D is playing I was all for it, but there is a bigger reason I was all for it, I didn't want Brunell throwing incomplete passes stopping the clock, or giving up a big play to the defense as he has been prone to do, let's face it the guy is not going to get better just look at his body language out there, he can't step up into the pocket or step into a throw, he drop's back not looking for reciever's but looking for on rushing lineman, you can see in his footwork and body language that he is preparing himself to move backward's in anticipation of a defender breaking through instead of focusing on reciever's down field, he then will throw off his back foot falling backward's and that is why his ball's keep riding high, the guy mentally is done, he is big time happy feet.
