No point???

Larry we go back in forth on this every week, no point in arguing it anymore, yeah Mark sucked yesterday everyone on the offensive side sucked yesterday, so what dosen't mean everyone needs to get replaced. Bottom line is that you know Ramsey will not be starting unless there is something seriously wrong with Brunell, so why even say it.
BTW didn't Mark "no arm" Brunell have more TD passes this year then any other in his career?
NO POINT???
Let me tell you about bragging rights and eating crow...
We'll see next week how Mark does and I'll be happy to give him all the credit he is due for a big performance and admit I was wrong. Where will you 'head in sand' people be if, miracle of miracles, Mark is struggling and the game is on the line?
Also, 23 td's is nice. He also had the lowest completion percentage of his career for a full season and 4th most INT's in his career. Being under 60% in this offense is a crime.
Lastly, I choked over this one:

Seriously wrong. Like what? Like cancer? Maybe his arm falls off? Seizure? Case of the squirts? That's what it'll take for the true beleivers to recognize
that this is just a game and the goal of the game is to win and to do that you play you best guys and Mark is not our best guy.
Why is it so epicly wrong to bench a guy who ain't getting it done???
Seattle is gonna score. They have one of the best RB's in history, a good qb and a full compliment of decent to very good receivers.
If the defense had not played lights out yesterday and gotten two HUGE turnovers and scored on one of them, you people would be stuck with Brunells performance as the punction mark on a season that coulda been.
7-16, 40 whatever yards. The WORST performance in playoff history by a winning team. Not a'bad game'...the WORST game.
If Ramsey gets the reps this week, we are FAR better off, if he struggles, to bring the vet, Mark, off the bench than the other way around.
On the bright side, we have a far better chance against Seattle than we did against the Bucs. Seattles D is middling. They lost to the Jags and us and had one of the weaker schedules in the league, feasting on the Rams,. 49'ers and Cards, then catching a dead Philly and the playing for nothing Colts. Past that, the only playoff team they even played was the Giants and beat them by a field goal. They are RIPE for the picking and Gibbs KNOWS this which is why you are right, Mark will start.
Maybe Mark steps it up against another patsy?
Then we gotta pray for Carolina because Marks arm will really suffer in Chicago or NY.
