The whole team played poorly today but I was especially disappointed in Brunell's performance, the defense (especially pass defense and AA's play- what the hell are we paying him for anyway?????????), and the ST play in the 4th quarter. I also don't understand what the hell happened to our offense in the 2nd & 3rd quarters. It's like someone turned the lights off upstairs and we forgot we could score.

In the first few weeks our D could not stop the pass. This week they could not stop the pass OR the run. Brunell may not be the most consistent QB in the league, but he is better than most QB's playing and his QB rating reflects that. Unfortunatley, the Skins D makes every QB look good, because they can't cover anyone. If you want to know what is going to happen next week at INDY. Just go back and watch the Colts / Texans game and watch Peyton basically play flag football with Harrison and Wayne. Betting tip for next week, take the Over. It won't be pretty.

In the first few weeks of the regular season? Because when the starters played against New England's starters in the third preseason game, the same thing happened.
Everybody said not to worry, it was vanilla defense, it was preseason, and Williams wasn't showing anything. Some of us, the skeptics (sometimes labelled fairweather) who passed up the Kool-Aid thought otherwise.
Looking good in preseason certainly doesn't mean squat (witness Spurrier's win/loss record in August) But looking bad in preseason just might have validity now and then.
Unless you think we're still headed for the Super Bowl. Because you know what happened the last time Gibbs went winless in exhibition ...

All of you guys thinking it is time to bench Brunell need to think about the facts. The skins scored 22 points at home against what was suppose to be a bad 0-4 Titan's team. The reallity is that our DEFENSE can't stop anyone and they should not have allowed 25 points to the Titans. (Ok 23, the safety was not their fault) Brunell and the offense should not have to score 26 points this week to beat this team. Our Defense is seriously letting the team down.
Look at the production after the first quarter... I swear brunell hit more guys in blue jerseys in the hands with the ball more often than skins players...
Those are the fucking facts sir. There should've been 6 picks in that game. Our D does suck, and our running game was abismal... even though I don't think it wouldve been if we had called more running plays, and maybe kept it inventive like in the first quarter...
I don't know, but I hate some brunell support. Its not all his fault, but he has NOTHING more to offer us and his time here should be done. He looks lost and his heart is not with playing here...
I would like to see Campbell come in and do well... but I have a strong suspicion that he's probably not going to be any better.

Based on the thread title, hooskins doesn't care what any of us think so I guess he didn't want to hear any responses. So I wont respond, per his wishes.

Yeah I said it, we deserve to lose, and not make the playoffs.
We deserve to lose .... hmmm. For the record, please don't include me in the "we" that deserves to lose.
Enjoy your pity party if it makes you feel any better.
Cheers.
