The stats don’t lie, besides for the money these guys get paid to perform in a game they should be able to walk in no matter the situation and execute. Ramsey didn’t, he never has, Brunell hasn’t been, though he used to and he is still statistically superior to Ramsey, and Hasselback, when allowed to play in pre-season, just seemed to make things happen. We know that every time Portis has a 100 yard game it’s been a win. What was done here Sunday, 17 runs, that’s it. The defense hasn’t been bad but it takes points to win. The area the Skins are taking a beating are the big plays. No extra scoring from their defense or special teams while giving up a kick return and losing 5 touchdowns to the opponent’s defense.
Offensively the Skin’s should either stick with Brunell or, what I think would be better, give Hassleback the ball. We have seen what Ramsey does and as I saw in some highlights if Cincinnati’s defense could catch they would have had intercepted Ramsey at least 4 more times. Look at his numbers, 2 games, 3 fumbles, and 5 picks. Brunell looses the ball a lot to, but there is another choice and it should be tried.
