About time.

 

It's been a long ride, Seems like forever ago he was quarterbacking the Jaguars (oh it was). Guess he got sick of this...

in all seriousness though, I've always liked Brunell when he was starting. He was also a serviceable backup after that.

Hard to believe he never through over 20 TDs in a season until he was with the redskins in 2005 and that was the only season.

 

makes sense when he was always handing off to Fred Taylor in Jax.

 

and holding for kicks in N.O.

glad he at least got a ring.....always seemed like a good guy

 

agreed. I've always been a big fan of his. Loved playing with him in 2K3. Shame he has no money.

 

i hope he finally learned how to save his money these last few years in the league.

 

Quite a few years he was over 3000 yards passing and I think there were a couple he was close to 4000 or over 4000. Keenan McCardell and Jimmy Smith were some pretty nice weapons at the time...
