I think one thing we can be certain about Campbell is that he's an accurate passer. I don't doubt for one second his physical abilities as a QB. Look at his college career... He throws the ball perfectly. He's one of the most accurate passers out there.

What's in question is his ability to make a fast release (looked a little slow) and the right read. Once he gets those two things... which may or may not happend, then he'll be good to go.

excellent points...the kid has a freakin cannon for an arm, granted. Accuracy? from what ive seen, his deep throws are pretty on point and he has LEGS! HOLY SHIT! QBS CAN RUN!?!?!?!? WHAT A FUCKING NOVEL CONCEPT??? Brunell has lulled us into the notion that all QB's look like Frankenstein at certain points in their life but from the videos of JC that I saw....the boy has never heard of Halloween............

in all reality, it may be better offensively if campbell plays. We will be forced to shorten the playbook a little and forced to run the ball more. With his strong and accurate arm, a little play action down the field from time to time could get us some big plays.

If Campbell is so promising, why isn't he in.......oh yeah, saunders doen't like him cause he doesn't fit his offense. Byron Leftwich throws deep balls to talented receivers on 3rd down after two running plays on 1st and 2nd. Leftwich threw the ball 90% of the time at Marshall, Campbell rellied on running game and solid defense at Auburn. I agree, Campbell has talent, but he musn't be a very quick learner if we haven't seen him once in two years. What was required of him at Auburn compared to the NFL is too much of a transition especially in a complicated offense. Campbell should not have been the guy drafted if we knew in advance that we would hire Al Saunders.

Chad Henne was just a suggestion, I am a huge advocate of investing in a franchise QB, and Campbell doesn't seem to be that.

Impulsive is always looking to the backup QB, Smart is looking at the big picture. I agree we need to play campbell, but there is no sign that he is the answer.

I did not see the "swagger" that you look for in a qb when campbell played in preseason.

I would still like to see him, especially if the Indy game goes poorly. Todd Collins? give me a break with that option.

Way to make every thread about how Campbell should start, the film room is just suppose to have a film clips, not dicussion.
