illone Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 Look guys, not trying to be an ass here and not trying to say I told you so, but this thread WILL be around until Ramsey is pulled or until everyone else "gets it." I always knew Brunell was FAR better than Ramsey in every facet of the game. Now it appears a ROOKIE has more poise than him. No more excuses for a 4th year QB. Serious. I want the Skins to win MORE than any fan out there which is why I know in my heart that trusting Ramsey behind center is futile. If Ramsey starts this offense is doomed. I can't wait to bump that Brunell thread from last season:laugh:. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost of Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 You're really trying to compete with that thread? Would it matter if the thread was bumped? It was RIGHT and everyone who said what they said based on what Brunell did last year was RIGHT. Nothing this year or this preseason changes a thing about 2004. You don't get to be retroactively 'right' about a player who stunk in 2004 on his own merits AND in comparison to the other QB. BUt feel free to let this be "your statement" for 2005. Please bookmark it because I don't want to waste the 8 kilobytes on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da_Truth Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 Yep. You know its pretty bad when a rookie qb who has only played one quarter in the NFL is better than a qb who has played in the NFL for 3 years. Thats pretty sad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrangeSkin Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 Well, Ramsey looked a lot better than Brunell did in the regular season last year. Not sure what to attribute that to, but they were running the same offense. I just don't see how Brunell can come off of his horrid performance last year and magically become a servicable starter. It's just not gonna happen. Throw him out there against a 1st string offense, and we'll be right back to the old Mark Brunell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceman Spiff Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 Come on dude. You can't sit there and honestly say that you thought Brunell was better last year. His Qb play was a total trainwreck. Maybe this year will be different for him, but last year was an abomination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimFolk Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 The offense is built around #26. He was in like 2 plays. Lets see what Ramsey can do when he has his playmaker taking pressure off him next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 You know what's really funny? Brunell, by his own horrid play, served a plate of crow to the Brunell-backing, Ramsey-hating set for 9 games. But ONE preseason game(with all practices, Ramsey being on top) and they get to come and beat their chests again. You guys are a trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illone Posted August 14, 2005 Author Share Posted August 14, 2005 What's even funnier is that your whole thread was in vain. Brunell is way better than Ramsey will ever be. Period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheREALJBird Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 yea that brunell is back to his days of glory in jacksonville because he did good against a 2nd string D in the preseason.....light the fireworks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Jones Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 Looking at it from another angle, maybe they both are not cut out to play QB. However, niether has displayed enough to make a decision one way or the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, maybe the 1999 Brunell was better. 2004 stunk to high heaven beyond all hope of redemption. EVEN if he came back to some level and played better it would not erase last year. Dude failed to throw for 100 yards FOUR TIMES. Patrick has never done that when given a full game. COme on, one or two quarters in a preseason game doesn't erase the fact that Patrick WAS BETTER than Brunell. LAST YEAR. And in training camp...THIS YEAR. :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mookie0720 Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 The bottom line is that neither of the QB's mentioned in this thread are the future of this team, at least not a part of the successful future of this team. We've got one hope for future QB on this team, and that's only because he hasn't played yet, not allowing us here to rip him a part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT, the information that we have now appears to show that he was injured and STILL beat out Ramsey. The same arguments that most have in favor of Ramsey still apply to Brunell: bad oline, new system, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try to argue it, seriously. Make yourself look like an even bigger fool:laugh:. Anyone with any ounce of 'football smarts' knows that Ramsey DREAMS of achieving what Brunell has in the NFL. You should have woken up by now and realized who Ramsey really is. He's nothing more than a back-up in this league. Maybe you followed him in college ball and he did a great job.

Um, not to put to fine a point on it, but you said Brunell was a better QB before AND LAST YEAR than Ramsey will ever be. The whole point of most of your post was that this somehow justifies the pro-Brunell Pied Pipers last year. It doesn't. And this ain't 1998 anymore.

Doesnt matter man, your argument is a pipe dream, based solely on a prediction of future performance. It's not fact and never will be. Brunell was one of the best QB's from the 90's. Ramsey has never won anything except in college. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost of Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 What's even funnier is that your whole thread was in vain. Brunell is way better than Ramsey will ever be.Period. What is apparent is that you have no short-term recollection of what you say from one post to the next. YOu do not get to define what words and sentences mean, you have to conform to the basics of the written word. When you say that my thread was in vain, you speak falsely. It is as vain as any other proclamation on a football message board. But it was prophetic, like it or not. Brunell was FAR WORSE than Ramsey was last year. PERIOD. You can put qualifiers on it, if you like, if that makes you feel better about yourself for backing a QB who couldn't break 100 yards multiple times against defenses that were not strong enough to carry offenses that could not penetrate the Skins D. So your post was wrong on basically all counts. 2004 is in the books. You were wrong. That this fact and simple sentence and word usage in English escape you, while you crow over a quarter and a half of a preseason game reveals that you lack an internal filter for impulsive thoughts or that you merely don't perceive time linearly fact as the rest of us do. Perhaps you are an alien? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
