Collinsworth on Redskins QB situation

MTK · 11-15-2006, 03:09 PM

I just heard him on the Dan Patrick show, he said he was talking to someone inside the Redskins organization and this person told him that they pray for Mark Brunell every night because the other two guys "can't play".

I'm not sure if this conversation he had with a Redskins insider took place during the preseason or was just recently, but either way it made me a little uneasy to hear it.

I dunno. When I hear "someone inside the Redskins organization" I feel like someone is grasping for straws. It could be the waterboy, the trainer, an accountant, anybody. If he said, "A prominent figure inside the organization." or maybe an player that wishes to remain anonymous, I'd feel differently.

Not only that, someone WISHING for Mark Brunell? I don't know how much stock I take in that.

He said it was someone high up in the organization... maybe Vinny?

I guess at this point it really doesn't matter. The good part is now we can see what we have in JC and if he's not the fix we have off season to find a new QB.

Let's say Campbell is horrible in 6 out of his 7 starts. Would you go out and find someone to compete with him in the offseason?

I wouldn't.

If Campbell is horrible is his first 3 starts there wont be a 4th.

Why? If he loses his first 3 starts, who's going to start vs. Phili?

Randle El?

That'd be redick. Also impossible.

Who will start vs Philly? Thats easy, Brunell. Gibbs will give us some line of bull about Mark being rested and giving us the best chance to win. I have said it in other threads, we have not seen the last of Brunell.

I have to disagree about the preseason. I thought he looked better than Brunell or Collins playing with 2nd and 3rd teamers. He made all the throws, he was very accurate on most throws and moved around very well. Did he make mistakes? Sure, but the only way he is going to get better is to play against live bullets. He'll be fine. Too much raw talent to fall flat on his face.

Ok, who was it? Was it you GTripp, or was it you Hess?

It was Mark Brunells Wife.

Campbell was seriously running for his life behind that line this preseason. Sure, he was playing AGAINST third stringers, but if you have that kind of pressure, you're not going to do a whole lot as it is.

TheMalcolmConnection · 11-15-2006, 03:26 PM

Ah, why'd you have to tell me that?!

Regardless, I don't see how any SANE person could say they were praying for Brunell. Maybe it was the HEAD accountant.
