Brunell is Bad

guys, why put the blame on brunell? it's obviously nascar boy's fault that our team sucks and is going to fail next year right? he's obviously gotten too old to handle the nfl. we should put him out to pasture.

Brunell bashers, one question... What were you looking for from the QB position that we didn't get in '05?

I was looking for a quarterback to go out and win games, not go out and try not to lose games.

We did win 10 games and a playoff game too, right?

Just checking.

dallas, reg season tampa bay (defense blew that one ten times over), dallas 2, giants-2, san fransisco, etc.

you don't get 40+ yard pass plays with a noodle arm. its not george or farve, but its not as bad as you seem to think.

and again, propagating the rumour that we have top 5 offensive linemen at any position besides RG is a vicious vicious lie.


and then you decide to go with the i'm right causes i said so so shut up line :P that's really a great way to sell your opinion.

I can throw an NFL football 40 yds. So can a bunch of people on this message board. Samuels is a top 5 LT, Jansen?, Rabach, and you think randy thomas is the only good one? Brunell has a offensive line, that I might ad is run by one of the best line coaches of all time, Joe Bugel.

Our OL gave up 35 sacks last year, not really a great number for a top unit as you say.

The OL is still a work in progress.

Actually, you are proving my point. We had an excellent OL but Brunell's indeciciveness and lack of awareness were the cause of those sacks. A lineman can only be expected to block for so long.

I'm still baffled by the title of this thread. We were a couple of wins away from the big dance, and somehow people find things wrong with Portis, or Brunell, or this or that guy. I know it's an open forum and I'm totally cool with that, but to bash guys who had Pro-Bowl caliber seasons is just beyond me.

I really can't believe that many of you disagree that Mark Brunell had an excellent supporting cast. It boggles the mind.

So after all this is said and done, you've flip-flopped a bit, do you still think that Brunell is bad or do you think that he's not as great as he was made out to be last year?

I strongly feel that he made plays when he had to and definitely had a Pro Bowl caliber season, however I feel he should have had the balls to sit down when his knee wasn't 100% in the playoffs.
