That however isn't my point.....although it seemed that way. I hope your not trying to say that Mcnair has the same weapons that we do?? Or that Mcnair is scared to hang in the pocket and take a hit like Brunell. Or that Baltimores offense is the same up tempo down the field attack that we supposedly have. They run the ball 10X better than we do and Mcnair moves the chains unlike Brunell.
I was using the NFL's net yards, not the stats - my bad.

However, Baltimore's offense is about their defense. 6 INTs and 3 FRs in the first two games, with one for a TD. Their offense has 2 TDs and 6 field goals, and half the time they start their drives in field goal range (at least they did against the Raiders). By contrast, we've started in opposing territory exactly twice. Their offense is better for having McNair, granted, but I wouldn't point to him as an example of what's wrong with Brunell.
