Thread titles are definitely lacking in quality lately. We need to step it up.

I wish they would throw Colt in there against Philly just to shut up all the Colt is the greatest fans and maybe we wouldn't have these threads anymore.

Put Vinny in behind center and see if we get a new line.

We need to consider giving Colt playing time without the automatic assumption that it means he'd be threatening Campbell's job. He's a young, developing QB who could play an important role years down the road if Campbell gets hurt (assuming JC will be the QB then, which we all know he won't). The season is over, why not give young 2nd and 3rd stringers a chance to play? At the very least it will give us a reason to watch.

Jason isn't the problem.
Collins is the No.2.
And from what i saw at training camp, Colt isn't ready.
And Zorn isn't planning to give up the last 2 games.

Look, let's be real. Colt is a next season project. As for right now, I wouldn't mind seeing Collins get some playtime. Since I wanna see the Skins play spoiler against the Eagles, let JC start Sunday. But in the SF I'd like to see Collins have a go.

[Dirtbag59]

Yes, if nothing more then to light a fire under JC's butt and hope that he has a Tavaris Jackson like turnaround.

Lol... If we continue to play the way we have, the Eagles are going to blow us out, meaning we will probably see Collins come in for mop-up duty.

When the hell are we going to find out about Campbell then? Gibbs sure pulled the plug on Ramsey rather quick. I mean do you think Campbell is all of a sudden is going to become a stellar QB in a span of 2 weeks. Campbell is an average QB. Guy has almost as much time under center for us as Frerotte had and more than what Ramsey had, so why do you think another year or two is going to make Campbell. Shit, Ryan looks better than JC and he is a rookie, and Flacco is only a half step below JC as a rookie. Damn, how long do we have to play the bastard to find out if he is a wash or not? He will be the starter in '09, but if we suck, Brennan will end the season starting. Since we are a total mess more than likely '09 will be another subpar season. Count on JC not being resigned as his asking price will be higher than what he is worth. THe JC experiment is coming to a close.

Jason is part of the problem, don't kid yourself. Still tends to give away who he is throwing to, locking on to one guy, is slow in decision making often, and has not shown me any leadership at the helm of the offense or any emotion. What this team needs is at least a small group of gamers that want to step it up and be leaders. JC is just an average QB collecting a paycheck. Too bad we can't clone Sammy Baugh, for if we could we would kick some ass!!!!!!!

Only put Colt in if we have turned the page on Campbell, otherwise that would cause more problems then it would help. Not to mention with the weakness of our line currently putting in a New qb would do nothing but run the risk of shell shocking that player.

Well said, and on that note another Colt thread down the drain.
