Brunell and Redskins Reportedly Close to Restructured Deal

[70Chip]

This makes sense both financially and for the football side, as Schneed pointed out. Brunell could be very effective as a spot reliever. Without the pressure of being the starter he would be more willing to take chances. It' a whole different psychology.

If this comes off as reported without a big hoo-ha it will be a credit to the leadership of Gibbs and hopefully indicative of a more measured and reasoned approach to personell decisions.

To those who say Brunell is inadequate as a backup, I say "Name me someone else."
