Ramsey and Brunell Trading Places???

Okay, after game one Ramsey looked extremely uncomfortable. He said on that INT that the ball came out wrong in his hands....translation, he put too much air under the ball. Of course, it would help for the dump off receiver to run a route past the first down marker! :frusty:


Anyways, for the brief time that Brunell had came in, he looked alot more comfortable than Ramsey, and performed pretty good....at least from what I got to see of the game. I didn't get to see Campbell at all, but others I have talked to said he preformed pretty well.

I am worried about Ramsey though..I know it's just the first preseason game, but leaving your first team offense in for nearly the entire half is not a good sign!

Ramsey seemed too "fidgety" in my opinion. Our O-line gave him good protection, but somehow he seemed like he's rushing his passes. He overthew couple of passes to Patten when he was open. Brunell did look good, he showed marked improvement over his performance last year....wish I could say the same about Ramsey. I've been a Ramsey supporter for years now, but he's not showing me any improvements.

I'm not too worried about a skins QB controversey. Ramsey will be better when he works with the first offense. he didnt have much time to get comfortable and we didnt have much of a running game (although I think we could have). Brunell did look suprisingly good compared to last year's performance, but he still did what he did last year and anyone in their right mind wouldn't trust a season to him.

Plus remember that Brunell was playing against mainly back-ups. Ramsey seemed nervous. I think he will be much more comforable by the time the season rolls around.

Fidgety is too nice. He was non-efficient. No composure. No threat to the Carolina Panthers at all with the deep pass. His cannnon arm of yesterday is non-extistent. What was he working on in all of the unofficial and official camps during this summer? How to pretend he understands what Gibbs wants when in reality he is totally in over his head. He is at the end of the road. There's no more chances after the first five games of this season.

I'm not sure that Brunell's performance against mostly 2nd team players was good enough to forget the god-awful season he had. Ramsey didn't look great, but its way too early to make any calls just yet. He still has to gel with his receivers, and o-line. That takes time. Training camp just started remember? Tonight was a preseason game - essentially a practice, not everyone looks good in practice...

Why should Ramsey be nervous? Last year he cried foul when Brunell was named the QB. He was named the starting QB at the end of 2004. He participated in every unofficial and official training camp this summer. He should the most comfortable QB in the league. Unless he's looking over his shoulder at the future QB of next year or possibly this year if he continues to make the same mistakes that has crippled the Redskins offense and possilby Ramsey's future with another team next season.

People generally refer to Micheal Vick as a "running" QB. You know why that's offensive? He's not a running QB, He's a QB who has the ability to run and throw which is greatess weapon against the defense.

I dug that up from one of your earlier posts and if it were a vote, I think you'd get your QB evaluations silenced by most of your peers. Vick is most definately a running QB. His passing game sucks almost as much as your QB perception.

Ok, maybe nervous wasn't the right word. Maybe uncomforable, or even a little fidgety like someone else said. It was the first preseason game. I still think he'll settle in by the time the season starts.

I really hope so. Because we all deserve more than what we have been seeing so far. I'm in New Jersey and NFL Network seemed reluctant to show the live action in Carolina, opting to show the Giants's rain delay rather than the non-extisent offense of the Redskins.
