He was 11 of 15 on 3rd downs today folks, that's clutch. Plain and simple, that's clutch. Yet all I'm hearing is he didn't lead the WRs enough, he overthrew/underthrew, etc.
He played a pretty good game, that's all I care about.
You can pick apart any QBs performance, even guys like Peyton Manning.
Is Brunell perfect? Far from it.
Is he a heck of a lot better than last year, and far more effective than a lot of us though he could be? Hell yes.
Brunell was 12 for 17 overall on first down conversions. 2 TDs, 1 INT. Again when he knew the 3rd down in the fourth was crucial, he ran for the first down. That's all we ask. Be efficient.

those clutch 3rd and longs were what won the game. Brunell, Thrash, Cooley and the Oline couldn't have executed better on 3rd and long. after the game, Moss and Brunell himself said that it was being in 3rd and long so many times that was the problem and i agree.
whether it's the conservative playcalling (which has been getting lots of flack here) or Brunell's throwing tendencies, we DO have to work on that because other teams will come with a much stronger pass rush than Seattle.
gotta love these admins and moderators :Smoker:
So should I not have an opinion??
There are no rules as to what you can and can't discuss, if there are please point them out I'd love to see them.
All I was saying is why can't we be happy about Brunell and discuss his performance without it always going back to Ramsey??

I can't believe people are pissing in the punch here. Brunnell played WAAAAAY better than I thought he would (or maybe even could). Blaming him for that int to try to justify why Ramsey should still be in there is just childish. Brunnell got the job done. He was great on third downs. I don't understand why people can't take off their blinders and be happy that we're playing well. For now, I was wrong about Brunnell and Gibbs decision to put him in. So were a lot of others. However, I'm happy I was wrong.

i thought everyone has a right to an opinion here. it's when you're told to stop expressing yours by admins and moderators that i begin to ask if there's 'rules'.

Regardless, we're 3-0 WITH Brunell playing quite well. If Ramsey comes into the game, I'll be pulling for Ramsey...but until that happens, I'll continue to support Brunell and the team as a whole, because our 3 wins so far have come from a team effort.
I deserve my due, I called for the head of Ramsey......for Brunell, hell it worked:FIREdevil

the ball was tipped, i thought it was more of the receivers fault because he shouldn't have even touched the ball, but hey, mistakes happen. overall a pretty good performance by him today.
that was Portis smackin that ball ,if your not gonna catch it make sure no one else does..........Brunell 's run late in the game was a CLUTCH run...............3-0
yeeeaaaa...........
