Re: Time to bench Brunell? (Mega-merge)

He can't run as well as he used to but he's also better in other areas of his game, like decision-making. In 1996, he had 19 TDs and 20 INTs. in 2005, he had 23 TDs and only 10 INTs. Also, his sacks have gone down dramatically as his career has progressed. Even when he could run, he was sacked MORE. Why? Better decisions.
or maybe because of Clinton Portis. which many seem to say.

only place i expect and want Brunell running to now is Jason Campbell's training sessions.
