Brunell in Saunders's offense ?

I am just thinking outloud and wondering how Brunell will fit as the QB in Saunders's offense. When I think of Brunell, I think of a QB who uses his legs to get into a passing rhythm (sp). And when I think of a Saunders offense (using KC and STL to go by), I think of a true pocket QB that rarely needs mobility (for rhythm or otherwise).

Will Saunders be able to develop Brunell as a qb in his offense, considering how old Brunell is ? And I haven't heard much said about Brunell commenting on the Saunder's offense or vice versa.

Trent Green and Brunell are the same age believe it or not... Brunell is a smart veteran QB. I'm sure he won't have a problem picking up this offense, and I'm sure Saunders won't have a problem bringing out the best in him.

You should be right - it's not like Brunell is learning a totally different offense. As we all probably know by now, gibbs and saunders share many of the same philosphies.

Hopefully they both will adjust a little to each other's strengths.

Agreed, Brunell is one of the smartest QB's in the league. Its just a matter of the O-line keeping him protected. I just hope Cambell goes in to training camp and exceeds expectations, so he can be ready to take the job if Mark goes down.

You raised a very interesting question, "How will Brunnel fit in the new offense?". Brunnel had a comeback season last year and fizzed at the end. Why are we so optomistic that he will excel in the new offense? I'm worried that he might be the weak link in the offense. They have upgraded the playbook and the receiving corps but the field general is still the same with dimenished skills. Cambell is ready yet. I fear that Collins might see significant playing time next year. Especially if Brunnel reverts back to form.

I think that's why Todd Collins was brought in - as a safety net.

At Auburn was Campbell more of a pocket passer or was he more mobile? I almost more concerned about how he will do in Saunder's system for the long term. I agree that Brunell will probably make the adjustment rather easily.

at auburn campbell played in 3 different offenses in 4 years.more of a traditional pocket passer.brunell doesnt run as well as he once did,bit still wiggles around in the pocket enough to buy time.this offense should be a good fit because there are many options on pass plays,not just one or two

I wasn't really worried about Campbell because there was already some positive reports of the interaction between he and Saunders. I was a little worried about Saunders and Brunell because there wasn't any news or reported comments/interaction between those two. Maybe no news is good news ?

... and maybe there is such a level of confidence in Brunell from the coaching staff that this is an area (starting qb) that doesn't need to be worked on at the moment.
