Is This a Make or Break Season for Jason Campbell?

Campbell seems to lack fire and leadership. I was frustrated in his play more than once down the stretch because he made quite a few dumb plays. I would have NO problem seeing Colt Brennan take over this offense. He has swagger and a gun and displays a certain will to win. It will all come down to training camp. If Colt makes strides forward and plays well, Campbell's hook could get shorter.

I don't think he lacks either, he just doesn't wear his emotions on his sleeve, which is actually one of the resons I like him. At the end of the year when he couldn't find anyone open he tucked the ball & ran quite a bit.

He brought the team back to tie it in the last game v. SF & I think that drive was indicative of his will to win. He likely got frustrated w/the lack of open recievers & decided to make something happen on his own.

As for "dumb plays" I really didn't see anything other than typical mistakes all year from him. He wasn't given a chance in several games, e.g. pittsburgh.

Giants fans said the same thing about Eli. I love Campbell's demeanor - I want a QB that can keep his emotions an even keel. He will improve in year two in this offense, plus expect better production out of the young receivers. A healthy Randy Thomas and an upgrade at RT are the only question marks that might prevent the offense from taking a big step forward.
