Pages : 1 2 [3] Hog1 01-04-2006, 04:27 PM Brunell was DEFINITELY hurt. it was painfully obvious, you could see it every time he took a step. he couldn't evade the rush as well as usual (notice the lack of throws to Cooley? thats usually when he goes to him) and when was the last time you saw overthrows like that? haven't seen them in a while, but they were pretty familiar. 2004, when i now know without a doubt he played hurt. only way to explain the night and day change in his play. i give it to Mark for trying, especially on that scramble for the first down, he's a tough guy who gives it his all to win and not make mistakes. but if he can't make those throws on target or on the run like he does when he's healthy, then i'd definitely prefer a healthy Ramsey out there than a hobbled Brunell. we need good shots downfield and to Cooley (remember Ramsey basically discovered Cooley) and not out of bounds. Get well Mark, but if you're less than 70% on gameday and they're locking down on Portis, Ramsey has to show. Totally correct. It would nice to be able to keep a "happy" PR for that reason! onsidekick 01-04-2006, 04:33 PM Aside from Brunell's health, we do have one more thing going for us. If they do decide to blanket Cooley like Philly did I think the addition of a healthy Thrash made a big difference last week and I look for him to play a bigger role. He looks like he's finding his rhythm again with Brunell. gortiz 01-04-2006, 04:37 PM I disagree, dude limped around noticibly the whole game. When he ran, he looked slow. He was not sprayin' balls all over the place, he missed high. Dude is a warrior, and I think he down played his true condition, to not reveal any weakness to the birds. Well I feel better cause I didn't think he was hurt, but then I have to admit I don't look at certain things as close as I should ... I didn't notice limping but a few of did so you all can't be wrong ... hooskins 01-04-2006, 04:48 PM Aside from Brunell's health, we do have one more thing going for us.

He looks like he's finding his rhythm again with Brunell. Yea we need other recievers to step up like Trash last game, thats the only way we can win, because they had Cooley and Moss covered. Hey maybe other recievers as well, like Brown, or maybe, maybeeee even Jacobs. Yea I said Jacobs lol. Dirtbag 01-04-2006, 06:35 PM We should get Mark some early, high percentage passes (short hitches to Cooley, dump-offs to Portis, etc) so that he gets into a nice groove. SUNRA 01-04-2006, 11:24 PM Can you see the greatest upset since the Bosox vs. the Yankees? The Redskins will win the Superbowl in Detroit. The cast has already been set. In the Starledger newspaper of New Jersey, the reporter asks the question, " Why do Redskins fans have a reason to believe they will get to the Superbowl? The answer was that every NFC to make it to the Superbowl defeated the Eagles to get there. The Redskins winning the last game of the season puts them in position to fulfill a streak that has seen the Bucs, Rams, Giants and Panthers in Superbowl after defeating Philly! hesscl34 01-05-2006, 01:49 PM haha.. I have no idea why the print is small in my reply... Brunell is perfectly healthy. Saw the clip of him at practice yesterday. No brace or tape. Knee is good to go!!
