Just curious to see who most of you start at QB. I tried to start Brunell but have been finding Ramsey to be a little easier to play with. I am just getting the hang of madden (a converted....back....from 2k series). so maybe that has something to do with it....
Just wondering what you guys do

In my franchise, Ramsey beat out Brunell. He just played a little better. I think part of the reason is I wasn't used to playing with a lefty QB. Oh well.

I was thinking the same thing about Brunell being lefty

Ramsey. As soon as Brunell starts bitching I trade his old cranky ass.
I simmed my first season and had Brunell set as the starter. For some reason Ramsey ended up playing the majority of the season and put up great numbers. Brunell wanted a trade so I gladly dealt him away. Ramsey is now in the high 90's.
I used Ramsey throughout my entire '04 franchise so I'm just more comfortable with him. I didn't even try a game with Brunell, the lefty thing would take some getting used too I'm sure.

I also simmed through my first season and Ramsey ended up finishing the season as the starter. We went 11-5, but lost to the freaking Giants in the playoffs. Now I just started my first offseason and Brunell was crying about wanting to be traded, so I did to Oakland. I got 3rd rounder for him and picked up a strong safety in the draft. Ramsey is now a 93 in my franchise, and Portis, Arrington, and Coles are all 99's.

simming a season with brunell leads me to 8-8 records (-/+ 1), with ramsey its usually 11-5... found that interesting (did 2004 about 30 times over)... portis seems to fracture his forearm 50% of the time too, which is REALLY annoying...
I re-signed and traded Ramsey away when his deal came up, I just got tired of playing with a QB who can't move.
I drafted a guy who has 88 speed and 85 acceleration, his arm strength is only a 77 and accuracy only a 79 but the guy can run like the wind. He's on pace for 1000 yards rushing and rookie of the year honors.
