All this was to say that GTripp was kind of being ridiculous by telling us that in 2008 Campbell has a better INT rate than everyone but Jeff Garcia. Nobody cares, because he's at that level on the strength of his first 8 games. But we all know from watching the team, the performances we saw from the Redskins in the first 8 games are long gone.

It doesn't make a lot of sense to evaluate Campbell's full season stats when what we're really asking ourselves is why has the team fallen so hard from it's great start? We should look at the stats SINCE then, not over the whole season. It's convoluted reasoning.

No. No, no, no, no, no.

It's selective sampling to say this. Campbell's two worst games of the last six were also the furthest away. Film study shows me that he got back on track against Seattle and has played at a pretty consistent level since then.

If we are in fact asking why they've fallen so far, we have to look at the reasons why when Campbell improved his level of play, the rest of the offense didn't improve theirs?

Cooley, Portis, Sellers, and Betts have all fumbled the ball away in the last four games, and the receivers have been going through a serious case of the dropsies. That's your answer.
