THE ADE

I think he actually will have a great deal of one on one time with Jason. Right now we're unclear as to how much time that actually will be, but I think we'll see a head coach that has never been so involved in the development of a QB thus far in the NFL.

I don't see how that's a good thing. I don't think a head coach should be spending a high-percentage of his time with just one player. He has a million other things that need to be done, and if he truly is spending a lot of time working with Campbell, then he's blowing off something else. More succinctly - that's not his role.

Campbell has proven he can work and study harder than anyone in the NFL on his own. He'll be fine if Coach Zorn needs to focus on other parts of the team, which he will.

Bill Walsh was pretty hands on with the QB and that worked out pretty well. I am not comparring JZ with BW but it has been done before.
