KDawg Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 According to ESPN Sunday NFL Countdown, Brunell was just talking to Akin Ayodele and he told him they gotta "let us have this one because I'm trying to stay on the field." That, right there, is why Mark Brunell should absolutely NOT be on the field. Earn it. Jokes or not, show some damn confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BayouBrave86 Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Yep, it made me want to throw up. "I'm trying to stay on the field", what a smug SOB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sashae Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Ed Werder just reported on this exchange between Brunell and former Jaguars teammate, Cowboys LB Akin Ayodele on ESPN: Brunell: You gotta let us have this one today. Ayodele: No, we really need this. Brunell: You don't understand, I'm trying to stay on the field. Interesting.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDawg Posted November 5, 2006 Author Share Posted November 5, 2006 I almost threw up a little bit too when I heard it... Number one, we're playing Dallas. Our arch-rival, and he's jackassin around with the other team before the game... I don't even know what to say, I'm sick to my damn stomach.

Buck812 Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 How did we ever get so lucky as for him to be available just at the moment Joe Gibbs returns to the Redskins? Sums up the luck of our last decade and a half... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 He also said that with Moss out that means MORE Clinton Portis. Lets hope that actually holds true as we've heard that before, only to have him get 14 carries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BayouBrave86 Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Dude, I'm sorry, joking around or not, our season is on the line and Brunell feels comfortable enough to joke around about it? He knows his time is up yet he is joking around about it. I'm sorry but I've yet to see Brunell pissed off this season, other than when a play call isn't relayed to him fast enough. He is a joke.

KDawg Posted November 5, 2006 Author Share Posted November 5, 2006 yet, people still try and find another reason to kick brunell out :doh: How can you defend that? All season I've been in the "I don't like Brunell in there, but if Gibbs chooses to stay with him I'll at least try to support it" camp... But he's making it harder and harder for me to support any decision to leave him in the game. That's ridiculous. He has no confidence. Which may explain the whole check down to running back syndrome he has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if this is true Dallas will not let Portis beat them. They're going to stack the line and MB will be forced to try and win this game. Portis should touch the ball 25 times, but he will draw lots of attention. (especially without Moss) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BayouBrave86 Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Its also showed a tremendous amount of respect for our other WRs... Exactly. In my opinion, and yes I'm just a fan, Llyod and Randle-El are more than capable to be our 1 and 2 today. Don't forget we have Cooley, Brunell. But yes, please do feed the ball to Portis because he is our only chance of winning. Establish the running game and let it fly to the receivers, but that probably won't happen. We'll hopefully pound it with Portis and then we'll throw little out patterns to Lloyd and end arounds to Randle El. Anyone have a guess on to the number of times we hand it off to a WR? I'm going to go with 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously there will be joking. seriously, get off teh guy for 2 seconds so he can get a breathe. I'll admit that I want campbell in there just as much as the next guy, but untill then, Brunell is our starter. Live with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
