Haha....good point! Of course, he didn't have a choice with Schroeder, but Doug Williams - a veteran - won us the Super Bowl!

Re: Campbell or Brunell in 2006?

I want the best quarterback on the field. One who gives us the best shot at not only the playoffs, but bringing home the Super Bowl Trophy. If it's Campbell, that would be awesome! If it's Brunell, just as good! I would love to see Campbell come out and lead this team like an all-pro! That would be great because we know we'd have a guy who could play for us for a number of years...obviously Brunell is in his twilight years as an NFL quarterback. However, if Brunell can lead us to glory next year, I'd be just fine with that!

Brunell still has some gas left, they'll look to surround him with a few more weapons and with an upgraded scheme with Saunders now aboard I see Brunell starting off the year as the starter again.

Matty - what did you mean by "Assuming Campbell is ready to go, who would you like to see starting opening day '06?" If you mean he's learned the system, then it seems like a no-brainer that Campbell starts. However, if you just mean he is physically able to play, well, then it's also a no-brainer (for Brunell).

Brunnel will be the starter until 4 or 5. One good hit and we get to see our future. Im sure Portis is happy to see saunders in DC.

Campbell might as well get started next season brunell can serve as a mentor to the youngster and besides brunell can always come in if things aren't up to par!

Re: Campbell or Brunell in 2006?

I expect to compete for a Super Bowl next year so unless Campbell is a Marino/Brady clone, (wouldn't that be the shiznit!) you have to go with Brunell.

Re: Campbell or Brunell in 2006?

preseason competition, best man wins... if brunell is hurt he gets benched though. i can't take many more 41 yard passing days.

Re: Campbell or Brunell in 2006?

I will trust this coaching staff to make that desicion. There is no question that no other staff can boast the credentials that we possess now.

I think Brunnel will be the guy for one more year.

Re: Campbell or Brunell in 2006?

Despite the fact Gibbs told Campbell to take off the cap, it' time to go to work I'm not sure what he means by that. I agree it's not likely he will turn a playoff team over to a QB with so little experience, espically if their ambition is to take the next step in 06. We could expect too many growing pains with Campbell at the helm, so it's a matter of whether we want to sacrifice a season or more grooming a young QB or go with Brunell for all the marbels. It's a dilema that I'm glad the coach has to deal with.
Plus, how much is a new coordinator going to change or tarnish what Jason comprehended this year?

i dont think he will tarnish anything. we will keep the same mentality mostly id assume since gibbs is still running the ship, id just assume we would modify some of our offense and add some new plays

Okay, Okay, now I'm convinced we don't need to add Ramsey to this poll ..


Gibbs called quarterbacks Mark Brunell and Jason Campbell to inform them of Saunders's hiring but said he has not talked to Patrick Ramsey, who almost certainly will be traded or released.

Re: Campbell or Brunell in 2006?

I vote for campbell, the reason is to preserve brunnel body, come play off time campbell might struggle the brunnel is preserve and fresh,

we can win with campbell, just follow steelers, what they did with roethlisberger
after a few weeks of struggle think campbell can raise his game to NFL level
