As for Brunell, I don't think he's mistreated Brunell. I think he has mistreated him, in the way the whole QB question was handled. A QB of Brunell's caliber, with all he has done for the Jaguars and the city of Jacksonville, having to go through the pre-season unsure of where he stood with the franchise as it moved forward was wrong. Del Rio and crew could have been, and should have been, more forthright with their decision making. That, and the tree stump, have been the major negatives against Del Rio's first season of the "New Era". Hopefully, though, he can take something from the experience, and will continue to improve as a head coach. Things are looking up for the future of the franchise, but we should not be so quick to relinquish the past.
I think the Parcells approach is the best one. No one on the Cowboys knew where they stood when he took over -- they all had to prove themselves.
Hanson is out for the year.
Has the story of how he got gashed actually come out? I mean, video of that would be pretty funny in a tragic sort of way.
