How Long For Brunell?

im not starting to hate brunell, u cant honestly say it was a great pick up when we got him

This argument is really stale.

It's year 3 with Brunell, get over it.

He helped get us to the playoffs last year and he's our best shot this year.

brunell isnt going to get pulled for a while, if at all. it is frusterating seeing him throw it away so often, but really he was pretty accurate with his passes tonight for the most part.
Yes he throws a great 5 yard pass very accurate and if a defender is 5 yards away he gets rid of it....god forbid he would hold it till the last second and take a hit... Oh and any defense that plays the skins knows he throws a great 5 yard pass ... he makes defensing the skins so predictable... Brunell played great monday.:Flush:

I am sorry to say because I think Brunell is a genuinely good guy, but when we start equating a 58.3 performance as any sort of quality rating, we as fans are way overcompensating for a serious lack of efficency and decision making at the quarterback position. It is too bad that the coaching staff did not take a more aggressive role for Brunell's lack of performance in the preseason and start getting Jason Campbell more ready in relief of Brunell. I will not be suprised if he is taking a few more snaps in practice this week (well, I know that is wishful thinking). Just my thoughts.

MB will not take this team to a Super Bowl Championship. They may get to the playoffs but not all the way. That said he's the man. For whatever reason Gibbs likes him so that's the way its gonna be.

It is possible that Loyd & Co. were not getting open ? I have been saying it all off season , if we can't , or are not willing to run the ball 30 times a game we are going to struggle . We don't have Brady or Manning and unless we pull off that trade , we better become and ground and pound team !

I am in no way on the Brunell sucks bandwagon but if I see him scramble three steps and throw the ball away without a defender within 6 yards of him again I might start getting on. At least twice last night he chucked the ball four or five steps too early. You gotta give your WRs time to break free. Especially on third down. He seemed a little to content to throw it away last night.

Yeah because Brady and Manning are the only QBs in the game that throw the ball well. Com'on Brunell is fully capable of a 3800-4000 yard season giving a little more confidence in his WRs and some decent protection. We don't have 3 of the fastest and most agile WRs in the league to be a ground and pound team. That's just ridiculous. I am glad you have said it "all off season" but lots of people say things and lots of them are not right.

Dont start with this Brunell has to go crap. the guy was pressured a ton, especially when they went 3 and 4 wide. He did the smart thing, moving out of the pocket to buy a couple of seconds and did the only thing he could, throw it away. Unfortunately, our defense was not as good as it has been the last couple of years. and our special teams suck. Frost has got to go. 30 something avg for an NFL punter, that is a joke. and kicking off is a joke too. teams catching the ball on the 15 or 20 and starting on the 35 to 40. we automatically lost field position after scoring the go ahead TD.

I would have liked to see Brunell half as pumped up in the fourth quarter as Brad Johnson. Johnson wanted the game more than Brunell, and the Vikings pulled it out.

Frost averaged 43 for the night.

Not sure where you're getting 30. Maybe that was his net, but that's gotta fall on the poor coverage, not him. Outside of his first punt of the night he was fine.
