I agree that Gibb's is partly resposible for the passing problem's, he is the one starting Brunell.

Brunell did everything that he was supposed to do to put us in a position to win the Dallas game. I don't care whether it was rushed or not, the reality is that he had over 15 first downs and that came from passes to Cooley, Coles and Gardner. Brunell threw the long pass when he had to and still the question is why is Gibbs sticking with him. In the Cleveland game Coles caught 122yds in passes so there is clearly a problem that is not Brunell's fault. Remember no fumbles or INT's in either game.

Ramsey's INT and sack percentage were much higher than Brunell's at this point last year. I've looked at the pass that Brunell threw to Coles and I'll give credit where credit is unfortunately due. Deion Sanders made an exceptional play. The ball was perfectly thrown to Coles. Unfortunately Sanders came over to assist the other CB who Coles had beaten.
