I'm not a Jason Campbell fan by any means but for the sake of the Redskins as a team, I hope he succeeds. No more excuses for his slow release, inability to read a defense, his inaccuracy in his passing game and poor decisions. No more excuses about the offensive line as other teams and one in particular, that made it to the Super Bowl, had protection problems similar to ours also.
Improvement in of itself will not be enough to justify JC as the "Franchise QB". It's time for the team to rely and depend on his play and ability to lead this team. The pieces are there, it's up to him to be able to know how to manipulate and use them to his advantage.
A leader and a winner makes the players around him better and them wanting to play for him. I haven't seen this from Jason Campbell or the players that surround him, yet. Hopefully this will be the year he makes the Redskins his team.
See here's what I don't really get. Not everyone has to like all the players on your team, but virtually all observers, analysts and opposing coaches acknowledged last year that Campbell made great strides last year in speeding up his release, ball protection, accuracy and making decisions. He's far from a finished product and his 2nd half wasn't as good as his 1st half, but neither was anyone else's on our offense. Can you honestly say you saw no improvement in his game in '08.

Why can't even the detractors recognize progress and while hoping for continued improvement not rehash old inaccurate criticisms? For example, 'inability to read a defense' usually correlates to a lot of interceptions, which we obviously know that JC didn't commit this year. It's just frustrating to hear 'fans' echo the clueless comments from national reporters who don't watch the team.
