How Will Campbell Be Handled?

Why wait you ask? Because when you have a team that is loaded up for a serious Super Bowl run, you don't hand the offense over to a green 2nd year QB when you have a perfectly capable veteran in Brunell who just led the team to the playoffs a year ago.

Campbell's time will come very soon, but for now you have to take your best shot with your most experienced players.

Great pep talk Matty'. I was saying to myself last night if Randy Thomas was playing with us against SEA we would've been playing CAR for the NFC championship game! We are not far from achieving...

I have no idea why Thomas was still playing in the 4th Quarter of a 35-7 game...

The same reason everyone else was still playing, you can't pull everyone.

Short answer.. However the coaching staff deems will be most successful..

Brunell obviously is the unquestioned starter going into the season (assuming no injury) but Campbell will see playing time. Based on the interview on Redskins.com he and Larry Michael agreed he would likely play at some point this upcoming season so there may be a plan to get him some extensive time with the starters in the preseason and be the primary backup in the regular season..
