After tonight's game I'm tempted to call for wholesale changes. Bench Brunell, Coles, and Gardner. Start Ramsey, Jacobs, McCants. We need a spark somewhere.

man, at this point, i would NOT be opposed to that. let Coles recover fully if thats whats been stopping him from outrunning DBs, and let McCants or even Thrash not drop those clutch ones Gardner is infamous for.

noticed you wouldn't bench Portis. smart.

The best quarterback on our team is Hassleback
Talk about spark he has it.
If ramsey goes in he'll get sacked all day long
he has no mobility
and no clock in his head

here's my thoughts (as if anyone cares ;))

when we got behind by 7 points, my heart sunk, cause i knew that brunell's love of the 4 yard pass and throwing the ball away (as per instructions), such a small lead would be impossible to overcome... he threw high, to the right, etc all over the field... he's had 5 weeks to show improvement and he hasn't, SO...

give ramsey a week and see how he fares (the ravens would be a horrible game to start him in, brunell's also lit them up in the past, but not tonight)... with brunell in i feel like we can't get back from being behind, PR has big play ability... he makes mistakes, but i have hope till the last second that he might be able to make SOMETHING happen... and i think he has a much better connection with coles (brunell seems to prefer gardner or whoever is 4-7 yards out)...

ramsey could suck too, but i think i rather take me chances with him than with these short passes... brunell seems to ONLY throw to safety vavles and short of first downs (luckily coles can run decently...)

i just hate watching crappy horizontal passing, especially when its not working... we'd have to be lucky to hit 8-8 right now, if ramsey's the future, now's a good time to lay the groundwork...

i agree...Ramsey makes mistakes but he also moves the ball down the field...When Brunell makes mistakes the opposing defense walks into the endzone with a fumble recovery.

You know what I really hate. When we have 3rd and 8 or a 3rd and ten, and Brunell throws a 4 yard pass. Isnt this the reason we brought in a vetran Quarterback, so he didnt do stupid crap like that. Half the time when the recivers would drop the ball, I would just think, " Good, you shouldnt be throwing it there anyways ". I mean seriously, this guy is AHHHHHHHHH I'm going crazy. I hate night games, I never get any sleep, but I'm sure some guys had it worse.

Here's my prediction:

Brunell starts this week in Chicago, if the offense still doesn't show any life, Ramsey is the starter after the bye. Just my gut feeling.

I would give Brunell one more week to get the offense going and then switch to Ramsey after the bye week if there is no improvement.

That would give Ramsey an extra week of practice with the first team offense so that he has a better chance for success.

Probably a good call Matty and more of the way it should be. As frustrated as I am and have been with Jelly Arm (as he will be known until proven otherwise) to start Ramsey for a week, then go into the bye doesn't do much. Suppose Ramsey struggles, then we have 2 weeks of hand wringing over who the starter should be. If J.A. can't get it done at Chicago, then it's defnitely time for a change.
