MB is also a proven leader and his arm looks strong and IMO can still come in and win games for you with no problem.
Ha! No problem?! What if there's a pass rush, or 3rd and 8, or a 4th quarter deficit?

I wonder if this decreases Brunell's trade value on the market?

You mean like when we were down by 13 to dallas late in the 4th quater? And MB threw two long balls to SM for two quick TD's to WIN the game.....?

I am amazed at the continued bile thrown Mark Brunell's way. Do these fellow warpath members really think they can evaluate a quarterback's performance than Joe Gibbs?
With two solid backups, we are likely in better shape at that position than many NFL teams. The only real issue is that they're about the same age, we tried to address that in the draft -- it just didn't work out.
And no, the season would not be over without Campbell. Things would get tougher for sure, but certainly not impossible. Philadelphia certainly managed to survive McNabb's season-ending injury last year. Why not us?
Stop being so pessimistic...

I take it you haven't been around here very long.
Brunell is public enemy #1 to a lot of people.

Here we go again... Let's defend Brunell with the game where he used up the last bit of his magic, two effing years ago.
And I was kidding... sort of.
I wonder if this decreases Brunell's trade value on the market?
Can it go much lower?
We'd be lucky to get a 5th or 6th as it is.

I wish he had made Brunell 2nd string just to piss every one off. Get over the Brunell thing. Who gives a shit. If Campbell goes down and Collins has to play and doesn't play well, you will all be screaming for Brunell quick fast in a hurry.

I've been lurking around the forum for a very long time, just haven't posted much. Doesn't make the Brunell bashing any easier to take...
As for those that think Brunell is enemy #1, they probably should get a life. But it does irk me when they put their long-distance TV evaluation ahead of Coach Gibbs' professional evaluation. Whatever...
