Nice overall game by everyone's favorite QB.

20 of 36 for 226 yards, 2 TD, 1 INT. 81.5 rating.

Not too shabby. He even threw for over 100 yards, what do ya know. All against the league's #8 ranked defense.

I'm tipping my hat to him, hopefully more people will do the same, even if it's a reluctant tip.

Still alot of season to go, but so far he's looking much improved as he continues to settle in to a groove.

I'm still not sold yet. He had that great game last year vs Dallas and then fell off the map, so I'm still skeptical.


However, I give him a ton of credit on a awsome game today. He really does look like a completley different QB this year. Our offense as a whole looked better today than I've seen it since the begining of the 2003 season w/ Spurrier. I still think the playcalling needs some work because I still think were using Portis the wrong way. In any event, Brunell had a great game today and I'm excited to see if he can keep it up.

Key stat for today, Brunell was 11-for-15 for 138 yards on 3rd downs. I don't care who you are, that's big.

I was very impressed with his poise, especially down the stretch. His performance in OT, including that remarkable third down scramble, was awesome. I have to say, I'm not sure we would have won that game with Ramsey playing.

I thought Brunell played great,he was a late on some long throws,his scrambling was big,his throw to the endzone on the run that was ruled out was a thing of beauty,and I dont think the int was his fault,if we would have lost this game,I would not have blamed Brunell,but I'm still unhappy with the playcalling,Seattle was still stacking the box against the run,Portis 3.6 yrds a carry,Betts 2.9,so much for those passes to Moss last week stretching the defense,didnt seem to help at all,where are the audibles when Seattle's stacking the box against the run? It also seems like are run blocking is great in the 1st qtr and by the 4th it's practically non-existant

we could handle Seattle's pass rush. a QB with time becomes a pro-bowler. how we handle teams with a true pass rush will determine how far we go this season.

No way I can dispute that, I have alway's maintained the key to a great QB is his ability to make a play on third down and keep the drive moving, I would say Brunell was outstanding today in that department.

The problem he has is he waits to long to make his throws, he has recievers open and he's still holding the ball, I noticed on the replay early in the game when he hit Cooley about 25 yards downfield, Cooley was wide open as soon as he made his break but Brunell waited allowing the defense to catch up, so instead of a real big gain and possible TD, we just had a 25 yd gain, right after that the analist started to make those same statements.

He also made a poor throw to [ I believe it was Patten ] on a deep ball late in the game when he had badly burned the corner, but instead of throwing it towards the middle of the field away from the saftey, he threw it directly to the reciever which alowed the saftey to come over and bust up the pass, all he had to do was lead the reciver away from the saftey and it's an easy TD, it's things like that, that keep teams in games, Seattle shouldn't have been remotly close late in the game.

Offiss--I agree. Brunnell was late on a number of throws. With our speed, hitting guys in stride is crucial. Seems like the read process is slow. But Brunnell made it happen when he had to. Very clutch plays (minus the int--whoever's fault it was, that cannot happen), and that scramble was vintage stuff.
