When Portis tackled the DB. Pretty much sealed our fate.
I figured that's what you meant. I just wondered what was the point of posting that, and on this thread.
But actually, I really don't care. So you don't need to respond

hog1, those 2 t.d's against Dallas were almost as good as Kilmer to Taylor, against Dallas in the 1972 NFC championship game. Brunell was a class act. like said before, too old, and too beat up to give us consistent GOOD quarterbacking. but in todays NFL, not a peep out of him , as far as excuses. thanks for being a good redskin, and better yet, a good teammatethats exactly who brunell reminds me of is kilmer ,who was a winner .kilmer won ugly but he won alot of games.i always was a sonny man :point: .thanks mark for those dallas wins and the play-off victory.:biggthump

Upon further reflection....
I have to agree Brunell did have some magic up his sleeve. He always gave his all and I do tend to think that he may have been handcuffed with the playcalling this season.
He was always positive, I never saw him yelling at the coaches or any of the players. It isn't fair to blame him for all of the bad that has happened lately.
I will never forget the come from behind win in week two against Dallas. That has to be one of the greatest feelings I have ever had after watching a game.
My bitterness towards this season's struggles got the best of me.
Thanks Mark for being a class act, and I wish you nothing but the best.

Thanks Mark for the incredible ending to the game in Dallas last year. It had been so long since things have gone the skins way down in Dallas. Those two throws to Moss to end the game and to see the look on Dallas fans' faces afterwards was priceless.

Thank you Brunell.........for helping to win a playoff game and beating Dallas twice in one season.
Im sorry...but, When you change the offensive system like that I guess mark Brunell is gonna struggle against the what the experts say toughest division in football right now! I mean he struggled in his first year under gibbs and then had a great second year, then all of a sudden Snyder wants to go out and fix something that isnt really broke by bringing in Al Saunders!?!? Diss Brunell all you want but when Quick slick draw Snyder decides to bring in another offensive coordinator or whatever, were gonna be criticising campbell like we were eating ramsey up! If it isnt broke...DONT TRY AND FIX IT! In my opinion Al Saunders should still be in K.C. This team would be 14-2 if we would of kept Joe Gibbs system and stop trying to teach a new offense every year to the quarterbacks! Switching the Offensive system every year didn't work in High School, Definatly does not work in College And I highly doubt it will work in the NFL!
Im not Outraged at the decision to start Campbell, But I think its too late we barley gave him any p.t. in the preseason, and Al "conservative Im just here for the fat ass check" Saunders Has a Air Arsenal (my cowboy fan friend agrees) and HE WONT USE IT Throw down the damn Field!, And Hell no Collins won't be the Number 2 QB are you crazy Mark Brunell is as capable of winning games as Farve is. Now I got a question CAN OUR LINE BLOCK FOR Campbell!?!?!? If they Protect him like they were protectin Hasselbeck when we lost ramsey under spurrier then we should be fine because they made Hasselbeck look like a damn star lol.
3-6 guys 3 of those games won by the quarterback were kicking to the Curve, 1 of those games where he threw one to Moss and we won the game! Sorry Im not as in love with J.C. as you all are, Im just weighing the facts, hes no Doug Williams, Doug williams had played in the nfl before when we started him.......Honestly We don't get off on pure talent like our rivals the cowboys. I do however see J.C. Being great next year and I know this is gonna get me grilled but....I don't see portis as the future for the ground game on this team...Betts has been stepping up! Ugh.. I hope Campbell lives up to the love your giving him...Im sick of being let down by these overhyped players like Farceletta! lol
One more thing....What happen to the last half decent Veteran Quarterback we released that got us to the playoffs the year before!?!? His name was #14 Brad Johnson and a few years down the road...what did he get??? A FRIGGIN SUPERBOWL RING...and people wrote him off after we released him!.............I dunno dude I don't like the way it looks, For some reason I can see Brunell Going to someone like the 49ers or the packers or someone that we don't forsee winning the superbowl any time in the present and totally pwning in the post season as there starter like Trent Dilfer did, and Brad Johnson!

The Pats just signed Vinny and he's 43. Brunell still have seven good years in him at least!

I'd like to say thank you to Mark Brutal.
Thank you for doing everything in your power to see the Skins get a very high draft pick for 2007.
