tvo14 Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I've been a big supporter of Brunell this year and I hope he can win it all but next year does he remain the starter? Ramsey is in his last year of his contract. Do you see number 11 as the starter for his last year and groom Campbell to be the starter the following year. A rookie QB with his first two years on the bench learning is ideal, I don't feel he would be ready next year. The bigger question is will Brunell be able play consistently and injury free being one year older and his arm strength will be declining. It would be nice to see Ramsey start next year, give him a chance to impress before he becomes a free agent. I hate to say it but I just don't see how Brunell can start the whole 16 game season next year so lets hope he can ride off into th sunset with super bowl win this year.

Beaudry Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 They go to camp and whoever plays the best gets the job. Let everybody fight it out and give it to the one who earns it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvo14 Posted January 10, 2006 Author Share Posted January 10, 2006 I hope they let them compete for the job not like last year when Gibb's named Ramsey the starter before training camp started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drex Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Hopefully, there will be a competition for the job. Whether there is in fact a competition will depend on the development of Campbell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loyal2Washington Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 If Gibbs and Brunell are here next year, assuming they are, I'll give you one guess as to who our starter is. Here's a hint it won't be Ramsey or Campbell. :dallasuck :gaintsuck :eaglesuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grimm Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I'm really hoping that Campbell will have a good pre-season and earn the job, we have a good O-Line and a great runing back to take the pressure off our QB, hopefully we can get a receiver to complement Moss and Cooley and open up the field a bit, The parts are in place for a QB to do well without having a ton a pressure on him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tr1 Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Fellas, Brunell keeps the job until: 1) He gets hurt; 2) He loses five in a row; 3) All of the above. Playoff appearances tend to keep people in their jobs...even coaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveP666 Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Its hard to say. Maybe Brunell will retire if we get far this year? I like him... but his erratic output scares me. But we won. The Giants had 12 more yards than us... but got shut out... so it doesnt really matter. I guess. I'd like to have more output... but its the playoffs... we just win any way possible.

latinkidgomez Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I have a tendency to agree with this. I am not sure that -HEAVEN FORBID- we don't make it ALL THE WAY this year, that Brunell will be our answer for next year, and winning now. We defintley have to wait and see how the rest of the playoffs playout and how the offseason, pre-season go etc. But remember, Gibbs Quaterbacks can be interchangeable, he has showed throughout his remarkable career that he just needs someone that is good enough. Out of his three Super Bowl QBs only one was good enought to have been considered a real Pro Bowler, but Theisman's career met his tragic fate, as we all know, under a LT tackle. But honestly, I really really don't like thinking about this kind of stuff until after this season. We are still on the ride! REMEMBER BELIEVE THIS IS OUR YEAR.

MCnDaHouse Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I don't see Ramsey being here next year. Not unless Brunell retires or there is some indication that Ramsey will have a shot at starting. Too many teams need a QB. MC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@DCGoldPants Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Who are you kidding here? Brunell will go into next season as the starter with Jason as the #2. Jason will get a chance to fight for the starting job in 07, unless an injury happens here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coachreiter Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 We all know at some point a young guy will replace Brunell, but when? I don't think it is fair to expect suburb play from Brunell next year, he is obviously servicable but on the decline. I am not convinced Ramsey is gone. I expect he or Campbell will get a shot in the competition for starter, and one of them (probably Patrick) should show enough to take over. Nobody can really know for sure about next year, I bet Gibbs doesn't yet know for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ_Skins Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I still don't know what to make of the QB situation and the way Gibbs has handled it. Given how much he expects from the QB in terms of managing the offense and not making mistakes, part of me thinks he has intended all along to keep Ramsey through his contract, and the only thing that would cause him to get rid of him this offseason is if Ramsey turned it into an unmanageable Coles situation...because there is no chance Campbell will live up to Gibbs's expectations this fast. At other times, it seems as if Gibbs has little to no regard for Ramsey as a football player, despite acknowledging his character as an individual. It's hard to say what he's thinking. I think it would be a huge mistake for the whole franchise on a number of levels to get rid of Ramsey this offseason, but who knows what they're going to do.

neongel Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 It seems odd to suggest that Brunell should not start, given that the 'Skins are in the 2nd round. It also seems reasonable to expect Ramsey to be traded in order to get back some of the draft picks that we've given away recently. And logic would dictate that the 1st round rookie would become the backup in his 2nd year - if not, why bother making the pick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-mando- Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 ramsey gets the last year of his contract to earn an extention/up his trade value (ala brees last year), brunell redoes his contract and stays as the veteran backup, cambell still is a work in progress looking to compete the year after for the job, with brunell retiring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooley4President Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I think we get rid of Ramsey in the offseason. We'll try to snag a draft pick for him and pick up a veteran QB to take his place. Hopefully Campbell is ready for the #2 role, and I think Brunell definitely is the starter next year if he doesn't retire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
