Strahan, Kearse, and Ware on the road in a division game is light years different from Billy Bob who isn't even given the whole scheme, in the second half of a preseason game with a team we won't even play in the regular season.

last season is the best indication of real performance under fire we really have, and should have at least earned Ramsey more than a quarter of play is all.

Regardless of the competition, Brunell's passes had something behind them and he was on target. You just can't deny that.

As for Ramsey, I guess Gibbs should have just tossed out the offseason and preseason in his mind and said Ramsey deserves to start because of what he did at the end of the 2004 season? His performance since then should have no merit in the evaluation process?

nah, I won't deny it. but i've seen Brunell look great in the limited circumstances of preseason before. i've seen specks of brilliance in regular season play from him too. what i haven't seen is Brunell take it through a whole real game. maybe its the conditioning of a mid-thirties QB, i don't know.

if we get 80% of "preseason Brunell" in regular season games i think we'd go deep into the playoffs, but we don't get that. i guess Gibbs is betting on things being different enough for him to try again.
