I was absolutely dreading another QB controversy in this upcoming season. In my mind Campbell is the undisputed starter and leader of this team. I guess I was picture Collins coming in and taking us to a Super Bowl or NFC Championship and then there'd be all this controversy over who to start next year.
Hopefully we'll pick up where we left off with Jason. Collins has proven an excellent, reliable #2 QB in this system and I sure hope we do everything to keep him around to mentor Jason and fill in as needed.
Hopefully for once this team can begin training camp without the media all torn over the QB spot.

I do hear what you're saying and I've had similar thoughts the past few days. I think we were able to gain some valuable perspective with the way the Seattle game went. Collins is not Superman, but he is certainly a quality backup and someone we can rely on in a pinch.
