Heres what i wrote in the other similar thread...

My major problem with Brunell is that he really is not a playMAKER.
I think should he get the start next week...that we may very well beat the texans... The problem is that they suck however...and i am worried that just because we may go ahead and beat them...in an unspectacular fashion...that ppl will get reassured that Brunell really is the answer...that he is this great game manager...and that is what we need to go far.

Personally i believe that Brunell does two things to our offense. He prevents turn overs...by not taking risks... But at the same time he fails to help us sustain drives and score points for the same reason.

I wouldnt even think about bringing in another over the hill QB like Favre at this point...because if you did you would be talking about comitting to him for another two years...and we need to see what cambell can do. But seriously...just try to imagine...if that was Favre out there...Dont you guys think that we would be scoring way more points! I mean you look at it and say...well maybe its because Brunell isnt on the same page with his receivers yet...but i mean look at what Mcnabb has done with stallworth...before the guy could have possibly had any time to learn the offense...

I seriously believe that having Brunell out there means that the whole team needs to play well in order for us to win. It only works when the running game is in sync...so that we can eat up clock...and our D is firing on all cylinders to shut down opposing teams offenses. The point is that there are times when this is not the case...when maybe some of the players...or some of the team...is not at its best...and at that point you really need a playmaker who can be the guy to take the team on his shoulders...and give you a spark.

Favre is and has been that kind of player his entire career...Mcnabb is...Eli is becoming that... Brunell certainly is not...and has not been for his entire time in washington.

I actually believe that Brunell is worse than a veteran like Brad Johnson. Johnson it seems...would have been a nice fit here...because while he doesnt take too many risks...he does seem to do an effective job of moving the offense...and Minnesotas record while he has been starting shows it.

I guess at this point...i would be really more curious than anything else...to see whether my hunch is right...that Brunell by playing it safe all the time...really has been holding this offense back...from reaching its lofty potential...at the very least...by not providing us the spark we need.

I think should cambell get some starts...we may very well see some rookie mistakes that will make ppl yell at there TV screens...mistakes that may cost us some games. But at the same time i think we will suddenly see the offense become much more explosive...guys gainging alot more yards etc...

That is why last year...i was kind of hoping to see ramsey get some starts...because in spite of the increased risk for turnovers...i really believed the additional explosivness of the offense could counterbalance it.

Cambell...is much less experienced than Ramsey...and hasnt taken a snap in a real game yet...so we are less sure what he will bring to the table...but i would be interested in seeing what hes got. So...i think...we give Brunell one more week...and if he continues to suck just make him the back up...and make cambell the starter...but in any case whether or not Brunell continues to be the primary starter...i believe the coaches ought to make a serious effort to get Cambell game time experience...like the titans have been doing with young.

I think this team is too talented to accept mediocre play at the QB position...and i think we need to give the young guy the opportunity to show us if he can take this offense where it needs to go.
