How will you feel if its Collins instead of Campbell?

Warpath · 11-13-2006, 01:58 PM

I've heard and read many different places that JC might not be completely ready to step in. Remember what happened with Ramsey? He was shoved in there and had NO chance. He lost all his confindence and has been damaged goods ev er since. My question to the board is, How will you feel if Todd Collins is named the starter instead of JC?

Daseal · 11-13-2006, 02:01 PM

I'm not sold on the whole damaged goods thing. He looked pretty solid in that bears game before he got yanked.

Anyhow, at this point Ill try anyone but Mark Brunell. I find it a bit silly not to have the future taking snaps. Some QBs just need to get their feet in the fire to understand the game. We need to evaluate Campbell, we're out of the playoffs, and Mark Brunell probably wont be back due to salary cap restrictions (and the constant vandalism of his house...)

If Collins starts, fire the whole damn coaching staff!

illdefined · 11-13-2006, 02:04 PM

i'd feel like Campbell (and his draft choice to trade up for him) were complete losses, because Gibbs has no faith in him after two years in camp. to put in another washedup QB only this time, a career backup, ahead of Campbell would basically confirm it.

and i totally don't get the reasoning at all for not putting in a fresh QB when the team "is doing bad". when the hell do you put him in? when they are doing well?? ask Parcells when a good time to change a struggling veteran QB is - may even be at the HALF when you are trying to WIN a game, gasp. you forge steel from a fire.

Hog1 · 11-13-2006, 02:04 PM

On Redskin lunch, larry is saying it will be JC. Bram is predicting Todd.
By the way, the job was Ramsey's to lose...............he did, and in NY as well. If he is that fragile psychologically, he can't be in the NFL.

TheMalcolmConnection · 11-13-2006, 02:05 PM

I don't even care at this point. I'll take anyone over Brunell. Like I said in another thread, if you can at least manage the game, you already are Brunell's equal.

sorry about that, and it wasn't vandalism, it was a kidnap attempt. he just wasn't there. i probably should've checked Gibb's house.

ArtMonkDrillz · 11-13-2006, 02:06 PM

I would be thoroughly disappointed in our coaching staff for not making a first round draft pick ready to start after a year and a half. He's been around the team long enough that he should be ready now or he'll never be. I mea, who's to say sitting for 2 whole years on a floundering team won't destroy his confidence more than taking his lumps.
I would also lose faith in the coaching staff because I would feel like they are too blind to see that neither Brunell nor Collins can be QB of the future for the Redskins.

We seriously need to know ASAP if Campbell can be the QB that we all hope he is, because we can't waste another year trying to teach some free agent Saunder's damn system.

So to sum up, I'd be really pissed if it were collins.

I agree 100% that the Skins need to try out their future QB and see if he will be the future. They need to find out what the kid has. I just posted the question because its not out of the realm of possibilities.

jbcjr14 · 11-13-2006, 02:09 PM

I agree, you need to find out what kind of player he is and if he can handle the heat and show improvement over the next 7 weeks. If he can't, you have to make a move or try something else in the offseason to fix the QB position.

724Skinsfan · 11-13-2006, 02:10 PM

Complaining about Collins being the starter will commence at the start of the 2nd Quarter.

skinsguy · 11-13-2006, 02:11 PM

I wouldn't be surprised if there is a QB change that it would be Todd Collins. I'd rather see Jason Campbell in there, but there is apparently a reason why Todd is #2 and Campbell is #3.

Until we lose 8 games, Brunell is the starting QB unless he is otherwise hurt.

Gmanc711 · 11-13-2006, 02:11 PM

I'm telling you right now, I will freak out of Todd Collins starts at QB for this team. Like I'll need to go to the looney bin to calm down in one of those rubber rooms.

There are two quarterbacks that should be avalible this offseason (Leftwitch and Trent Green) that I would love to see brought in if Campbell can't cut it. So Lets find out NOW how he can do. We have lost the season, it makes no freaking sense not to play him.

skinsguy · 11-13-2006, 02:13 PM

I would love to have Leftwich on our team if Campbell doesn't pan out as a starter.

Oh, you mean when Ramsey got the whole offseason to prepare as the starter, came into the bears game, and put up as many yards in the first quarter (before getting a minor injury and never seeing the field again) than Brunell did in the following 3 quarters.

Some people are too avid in Ramsey's defense, but some people shit all over this guy who played like a rookie QB when he was a rookie, finally got a chance to start under Gibbs with good solid talent around him, did great for a quarter, and never got to see the field again. If you didn't notice, Pennington was playing damn good QB at the begining of the year. Either way, Im sure he's happy -- he's winning more games as a jet.
