The Pats just signed Vinny and he's 43. Brunell still have seven good years in him at least!
yeah If they would quit changing the system brunell would be great...

Mark, Thanks for throwing that pick in the Cincinnati preseason game.

I will never forgive you.

That's a pretty ridiculous post. Sorry, every QB throws picks. If you take issue with every QB who throws picks (BTW, Mark doesn't throw many), you're setting yourself up to be one pissed off football fan.

Even though many cussed him out, Mark managed the game his way. It did lead us to a playoff appearance last year, but we gotta realize that he is no spring chicken, and to teach him a completely new offense at the downslide of his career is asking a lot. He didn'e turn the ball over, and he did what he could. Thanks Mark for three good years

To Drew's credit he did subsequently apologize for his post

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

It was Gibbs who orchestrated the Saunders acquisition. There are very detailed articles from the Post and other sources that discuss the meetings they had, the way that Gibbs felt lost and needed a new perspective. All Snyder did was pony up the money to bring in a guy who would have otherwise been a head coach. And people act like we had the top offense in the NFL last year. We were medicore save for that 4-5 game stretch. UGH!

Although I have frequently criticized Mark Brunell (in 2004, 2005, and 2006) and certainly agree with Gibbs' decision to bench him, I just want to thank Mark Brunell for his efforts. Mark Brunell helped get this team our first playoff berth and victory since 1999. Although Mark Brunell wasn't the sole reason for our team's victories last season, he certainly contributed.

I also want to thank Brunell for being eternally classy. Brunell did not whine, at least publicly, about his benching in 2004 or 2006. Brunell did not refuse to tutor Jason Campbell when we drafted him. Brunell has never thrown anyone under the bus to justify the team's struggles. Brunell has always shown class, even when fans did not show him similar respect at FedEx Field.

So, in sum, thanks Mark for your efforts and class. Although you're days as the Redskins starting quarterback are likely over, you've had a great career.

(Yes I am pretending that Mark will actually see this).Very well said.

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!


C'mon dude. Have you been watching any footbal at all? When Brad was here he was still in his prime. Plus Brad was playing with a top defense that got hot. Two totally different situations.
