It's important to realize that one man is not responsible for the record, and that the whole team is. But if the goal is to fix it, then you have to find the problems. 3-5 isn't a problem...it's the product. That's why its a horrible arguement for benching MB.

You are 100% right with your diagnosis of the game as one rooted in emotion. It's why a team can beat another team on any given Sunday. It may very well be why we lost to Tennessee. But the funny thing about that is when you get emotionally dominated...you also get statistically dominated. Stats do not show the level of emotion, but they show what happened DUE to the emotion. They are not going to tell you why it happened, but they will tell you how it was executed. And if trying to dig deeper into why and how things happen makes me a stathead, then I'm guilty as charged. But I've been a football fan longer than ive been a staticisian, and stats will never be bigger than the game itself.

Outside of that, I think this is a very well written final word. Although I don't agree 100%, I'm willing to let the issue rest at this point. At least until next week when we inevitably disagree on MB's performace. It will be interesting to see what we have in store for the Eagles offensively.

Ali G* should be the new Redskins coach. The man can do no wrong.

* Yes, I'm aware that it's a character played by Sasha Baron Cohen.

I listened to the game. Whoever was doing sideline reporting for Triple X said Brunell went to the sideline and said the botched snap was on him. He called for the ball and then took his eye off of it. Sam Huff said "high snap." Sonny Jurgensen proceded to light him up. He was like "Are you kidding me? That's just where want a snap!"

Brunell is horrible in the pocket. He has no feel for pressure. Its like he has a head full of metal shavings and the defensive lineman are carrying magnets.
