The only truly elite passers in the league right now are Peyton Manning and Tom Brady, so I'd agree that Campbell will probably never reach that level, but I think you're selling him a bit short by saying he'll only be average. His only glaring issue at the moment is his short to intermediate accuracy, which can improve with experience. He already has above average poise and a cannon arm. I think he'll be a very good quarterback in time; along the same lines as Carson Palmer or Ben Roethlisberger.

And as far as Romo, he'll never be in the elite class either. I think he'll be good, but if recent history is any kind of hint of the future, he looks like a choker in big games, like McNabb.

It might have came out wrong or something, by average I mean he won't be a Brady or Manny or Favre. He has enough to become a QB to take a team to the playoffs and beyond with the right team.

As for Romo, I don't think he is anything like McNabb. He only had one game where he bobbled a slippery and wet ball which made the NFL do something to solve that issue. He threw 5 INTs in the Bills game and was not down on himself and got the team in a position to win the game.

I'll admit it, Romo looks like a VERY good QB. I'm jealous. Dallas' offense has a bright future. I admit this only because you have shown some respect and deserve to be treated like a guy worthy of respect. I can't say the same for BlueStar.

I'd still like to see him do anything of note in a big game before I put him in the VERY good category, but as much as I hate to admit it, he is a gutsy S.O.B.
