Matty, I've yet to see evidence of Brunell running the Offense efficiently.
It's always something minor that becomes major.
The D is disappointing, the Offense has too many weapons to be this lethargic.

Regardless, 3 TDs should be enough to beat an 0-5 team.
Henry running for 178 yards, are you kidding me?

I'd say the D is the bigger problem. Henry had a career day and put us in the position where Brunell was forcing the issue. When a back runs for 178 on you it's tough to win no matter who your QB is. Brunell can manage the game well enough with support but the defense is a major disappointment right now and is giving us no help at all.
Yes, much of this is on the defense. But consider this: When the score was tied 22-22 and the Titans needed a score, ROOKIE Vince Young led his team to the FG. Mark Brunell led his team nowhere, twice. That's a major indictment on Brunell's ability to win game for us. Brunell now is 2-4 as a starter this year.

By no means am I a Brunell fan but I think we can win with him. We can't win with Brunell when Portis carries the ball 14 times though...

With an 0-5 team we should have scored on every possesion, that didn't happen. Then the D got tired/lazy/stupid....
Not sure which came first and I don't really care.

I have always supported Brunell when people were calling for his head but I'm not going to anymore. He has a dud for an arm. Moss's reaction to his passes tells me all I need. We can't win with that guy at the helm. Certainly not when we are 2-4 with the Colts looming. I say bench the fool and let see what JC can do.

Brunell certainly is not innocent, I just think it's funny we have a bench Brunell thread that's seeing about 6 times as much action as the defense bashing thread. That's very telling where our mindsets as fans are. Brunell is the bad guy even though the D just went belly up for Travis Henry and a rookie QB.

If you're the D and you know Brunell is coming out after you did your bit how happy are you?

As you know, the QB gets too much credit for good and too much blame for bad. It's just that Brunell's best and last chance to take us to the Super Bowl was last year. He did a very good job until late in the season. It's time to find our QB of the future. I hope he's aleady on our team.
