Brunell Benched

Joe Gibbs will start Campbell Sunday against Tampa Bay. Campbell has "zero" starts in 25 games. He's no Romo... Bye bye Brunell, Hello downward spiral for the soon to be 3-13 Skins.

Now if Joe Gibbs would just go away and take the Tuna with him.

Re: Brunell Benched

I think T.O. will win this one and run the Tuna out of town. Old Bill is looking a little tired (of it). I won't be the least bit suprised when he announces his retirement at the end of the season.

Hey, the offense has been pathetic. Portis is going to be out for a while, and Brunell hasn't been getting the job done. Kudos for Gibbs for trying SOMETHING. And really, they need to find out for sure about Campbell. Even if he proves himself a bust this season, then at least Washington knows they need to go in another direction and draft another QB.

Re: Brunell Benched

They have known for a while they needed another quarterback. I believe Gibbs was the one that wanted to stick with Brunell. He thought he would be able to use any QB with his system like before. The game has changed too much since he coached before. I tmay be time to hang it up.

I don't have any quotes or articles to back up this post. I just remember seeing this on ESPN when he first got the job.

Azreal you can find this comment from ESPN at the bottom of this article:
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=1702079

I agree, this is not the same NFL Gibbs coached in back then. His "system" just doesn't seem to be working now. This Hall of Fame Coach needs to step.

Re: Brunell Benched

Now see, that's just it. He's not running his system, he's running Al Saunder's offense. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think this team would be having more success with the old counter trey than they have been with Saunders playcalling. That said, I wouldn't expect Gibbs to return for the '07 season.

I agree and would like to add that I believe the Tune will call it quits at the end of this season as well.

There T.O, you happy, you win.

Why would they not be running the system Gibbs wanted to run. He is the head coach. Shouldn't he be telling Saunders what sort of offense he wants to use?

Cool Re: Brunell Benched

Stick a fork in Washington and I bet you Joe Gibbs wish he never came back.

As far as Parcells, Except for a few mistakes, he's done a good job this year. The Cowboys have lost a couple of heartbreakers. The Cowboys could be at least 6-3, even 7-2. They have 5 out of their last 7 at home. They'll make the playoffs.

Re: Brunell Benched

I'm sending my carpet cleaning bill to Joe Gibbs...

The Skins camp is reporting that they didn't pull Brunell due to performance issues (or lack there of), they want to start Campbell to give him a chance and to see what he has...
Theres a wise midseason choice, change QB and then alter the Offense to match his style.

...needless to say, upon hearing this, I spit a mouth full of coffee all over the place, now my carpet needs cleaned, and someone is going to pay for it.
