We've got a similar concern. Bledsoe isn't much younger than Brunell and he takes too many hits.

-Gent

But bledsoe is far less injury prone than brunell, the guys has been hurt what, once maybe twice in his career?

while brunell's age and injury prone-ness are definitely factors in why he didn't last last season, i don't think that that was the only factor, nor the biggest factor. i think in the end of the season, we had nobody for brunell to throw it to. by the close of the season many teams were catching on to the fact that santana was his #1 target. he started geting covered hard and we all know we didn't have much talent at WR after moss. portis was getting banged up and although i think he's one hell of a soldier, he couldn't carry the load as well as he could in the beginning of the season. and cooley, basically our only other option, was getting owned after our second game against you guys. so with no options to throw to, brunell couldn't get the stats. so while everyone blames his age for his stats slipping at the end of last season, remember that there are more things that contribute to how well a QB plays than his own abilities.
I'm sure thats part of the case. I'm just very doubtful in the ability of Brunell to play at a high level all the way through a season. I also would be surprised to see him have another complete season this year.

All I know is that he ran for 25 yards on that third down and 27 last year, which basically gave them a chance to stay in the game. How you let that happen.. I still don't know.

Let's face it, not many teams are going very far without their starting QB.

Really? Producing the lowest offensive output total ever in the playoffs against a defense that isn't even considered remotely close to other great defenses in the past is fighting valiantly?

Had Alexander NOT gone down we would've won that game......

When he got hurt Matt just started throwing that ball up ( attacking a thin 2nd'ry )

Had Alex been there they would've run-run-pass......not Pass-pass-pass....lol...

As for the defense.....last season they played great and the season before they finished #1 in DEFENSIVE points allowed.......

I give'm credit for being a group of nobodies.......

Bottom line.......Just line the article says......Brunell is the key.....Campbell should be decent because he's sat for so long but I would rather not see him until we either are out of the playoff race or until week 17. Keep in mind Brady was a LATE pk who sat behind Bledsoe for a while......only time will tell......until then "predictions" are nothing more than predictions......

Why are there so many articles about Brunell's age and fragility? There are many other 'old' QBs in the league, yet they receive no such negative attention.

Brunell 35
T Green 35
Favre 36
Bledsoe 33
B Johnson 37
Warner 34
McNair 33
K Collins 33
Garcia 36
Kitna 33

Mark played great last season. He only received a nagging knee injury at the end of last season by an illegal hit - Nick Greisen tackled him by the knees in week 16. The Skins offense stunk in the playoffs last season because two strong defenses figured out how to concentrate on Santana and take him out of the game, not because Brunell slowed down. Teams won't be able to double and triple him on every play this year. Mark will be fine.

As it's been said, no 200+yrd games after week 10, that's slowing down. 28 games played in the last 3 seasons. That's not good.

And I'm not sure what your point with that list is. Besides Favre, who gets by on reputation at this point, Green, and maybe Bledsoe none of htese guys get any recognition as competent QB's anymore. None of the other guys on that list garnish much attention at all, for obvious reasons. If you really want your starting QB in the same company as Kitna, Warner, Collins, and Garcia, then you've pretty much shown everyone why Brunell is such a concern.

Ha har har!!

Deadskins fans among the stupidiest propositionals on the net with their de voted type love for money grub Snyder and his shenaganins with salary cap manipulates and holy thna thou Gibbs with his scripture readings during practice times and his refusal to be a good sport-- not hand shaking Parcells and not supending Sean "THUG" Tailor for his criminal activitations and spitting etc. etc.

Brunell has one leg and one knee. Riddles me this: "What will he has left after Big Bad Roy knocks him loose with a blinded side type blitz on him and he lay in a heap on the ground crying and beggiung for Mommas milk on Sunday night football game 2?

HA hah HAR HAR ha ha HAR!! Deadskins fans and their over all dumbness amke me laugh and smiles with gusto and gleeful.

HA HA HA HAR HAR HAR!!

Yes, and you just exude intelligence and class...

I am worried about Brunell's health - as any non-homer should be. However, like most of Gibbs' QBs he doesn't have to win the game, just not lose it.

Can the same be said of Bledsoe? Not with that running game.

Everyteam has their question mark:

Dallas - The OL/Running Game
Skins - The QB
Giants - Defense/Eli's Progress
Iggles - Health/Rec. Corps
 

Alexander

What's it going to be then, eh?

He ran it like Kirk Gibson running the base paths that one time for the Dodgers in the World Series. Completely blew my mind.

The Boys have some questions on O line- but we got good backs that will run through the holes. THe skins have no one that will be able to step up when Brunnell's brittle bones get rattled badly enough.

I saw all I needed to see from Brusmell during this years NFL QB Challenge! He can't hit a moving target if he wanted....! All he's good for is tossing the ball way up in the air and hope that someone can get under it....

But, as far as accuracy...all you needed to see was the NFL QB Challenge...that proves a lot!

Ha ha ha ha ha!!

That's the sounds of me laughing it up after a quickly reading of your sillynesses as defines in a post you filled up with so much unsmartly filled comments.

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!

First off you teams has no hopeless for the future. Ever hear of cap hell-- well its comeing to you for good but soon and rejoycing to follow from me when it gets time for it!!

Second you filled with all sorts of weaknessess not just at the QB positions. Too much weak for you to spen a lot of time in discusings on it but you knows I'm write and if you don't not know it for sure then this only proves how Deadskins are not filled with braininess but have heads filled with Elmers glue and feathers.

Third the oline for us is gonna get the turn arounding to greatness as Mr Bill is gonna ride em into the dirt during trainings time and then put the fear of God in em so bad that they will find playing in games and blockings folks as easy as eating spare ribs and fried chicken sandwiches wrapped around wonder bread at a picknickle party.

Forth even if things don't not work out at first we have got us our secret weapon of weapons-- MISTER JERRY JONES!! He won't not let things fall two pieces on a sinking ship going under with no life bnoats Titanic style. He'll make us some special secret tradings for unknown gangster style players with big buttoxes and a swagger of toughnesses on them that Mister Bill likes to work out with and get ready for them to be mean and nasty on and off the field.

So you bettr start up respecting and fearing on the "Boys because we gonna mash you little Deadskins into submiss and vomitings after the game from all the high scorings on you that we'll be doing next seasons!!

HA HA HA HA HA HAR HAR!! (The sounding of me laughing at you and your're pathetics.)

LOL. So, losing arguably one of the best running backs in the league makes the team better?

How can I argue with that logic.

I read that...and thought? Why? Just why should I comment on a statement like that?!!!

RedStink logic, my man....there is always an excuse! From St. Gibbs all the way down to their "little Marching Band"...! :rolleyes:
