Brunell needs to suck it up and play better this week. Then again, it seems as though every single time he dropped back to pass it was on third down and the D knew what was coming. We need to run some good play actions, which Brunell seems to need practice on. He doesn't really try to hide the ball at all, but it could be a really deadly play for us if we executed properly.

Guys, we advertised everything in the second half. We ran on 1st and 2nd downs and had to pass on 3rd down. Gibbs played not to lose with a 14 point lead and hoped Simms would make a mistake, and he did. It was ugly, but we are one of the final 4 teams in the NFC. Plus Portis was hurt, which did not help. Hopefully Portis's limited work in the game will help him get better this week. Everyone is dinged up on this team and we need them all healthy for the Seattle game.

His accuracy is way off when his legs aren't underneath him. Hopefully he'll be allright this saturday and our O can show up and outscore the #2 offense in the league.

Also don't forget if Portis throws that ball to the outside on the HB pass, its another 6.

M.Brunnell didn't need his legs on Saturday! G. Williams "D" proped him up!

And if Brunell had just a slight more touch on the fake screen pass, that would have been another 6. I think people are getting their panties in a bunch a little too soon. Things will be just fine against Seattle and hey....IF we lose..at least we can say we made it to the playoffs and advanced AND that it only took Gibbs 2 years to get to that point.

we are not going to lose!lets get back to what won 6 games in a row,by running the football and giving our defense some rest.if the d is on the field all day,like the tampa game,it will be a long afternoon.lets get back to redskin football

Bottom line. We need to get SM the ball on Saturday. The fake was a great call but we didn't execute it. We've got to do a better job this week if we want to win, and i think we will. I was as happy to get a win as anyone, but to move on the the next level, i don't think we can sit on a lead like that. I really liked what Carolina to the NYG's. They got a lead and continued to throw downfield to Steve Smith, and everybody knows where its going. They sealed the win. This is still a relatively new team coming together and Joe knows what they can and cannot do.
