Re: The Vick Factor

First and foremost, I think the redskins need to establish the quarterback position. I personnally would invest the time and money in Vick, because he will be on the field trying to prove he deserves to be there and plus to attract a future mult-million dollar contract. The redskins cannot wait till midseason to see if Campbell will produce. They must decide now, will it be Campbell or Vick.

Welcome to the board...your post doesn't make sense

They must establish the quarterback position. I agree...but how do they expect to establish it by deciding to drop Campbell and invest in Vick when, as you state, he will be trying prove he deserves to be there and attract a future multi-million dollar contract. Isn't that basically what's going on with Campbell this year?

Re: The Vick Factor

I agree with you that this is probably Campbell's most important year. And he will have all the tools needed to be a successful quarterback. (line, receivers, and an elite running back). But to be honest with you, dont you think if he was going to get a contract. He would have gotten it by now. To show some kind of confidence in him as our franchise quarterback.

I can see your point there, I just don't think that the way to establish the QB position is to dump Campbell for basically another project, especially such a project as Vick.

Re: The Vick Factor

I agree that is no way to do it, but the skins need to stop wishing for that hall of fame rookie quarterback to come in and lead the team to a superbowl. We must make a decision on our franchise quarterback and drive with it.

OFF TOPIC, but
I think our OL and Receivers are still weak spot going into this season.

As of right now I would have to agree with you only because there is still no proof the people we have will step up. We all are hoping they will, but I think they are making great strides to improve those situations. Thomas working out with JC and staying after practice to get extra time working on routes and timing I think again "hopefully" will solve the problem atleast giving us one more talented WR and if Kelly steps up then two. I think Davis is making strides to improve also. Then you have to look at all the WR's brought in since the draft. I'm pretty happy with the talent being brought in and what our two last yr are trying to accomplish.

Then there's the O-line. I think getting Dockery back will solidify the left side of the line. Our only concern should be from Center to right. I honestly think the team is planning to put Williams in at RT no matter how heavy he is. I think they have him working out with Buges to get his technique down and if he's fast enough in preseason then he's our fix for that position and Heyer and Jansen will be fighting to either be back ups or Guards. Then we picked up Bridges who already is a solid Guard and actually is pretty big size wise. With these additions I think the line will be a lot bigger and healthier and will be a lot harder to push around. I doubt they do it but could you see a defensive goal line of AH and Williams clogging the center part of the line.

From a strictly football perspective, look at Campbell's QB rating and the progression over the last three years, then look at Vick's QB rating over his last 3 years playing.

P.S. Before there are any more "Snyder is an idiot" posts, please read the quoted post and be thankful Skins1980 isn't the owner.
