My personal opinion is that it is sad that everyone is placing this enormous expectation on Campbell to step up and be "pivotal" when all that mean squat if he constantly evading defenders every snap. The Skins knew Campbell had to "step up" this year and perform as expected but yet yielded no support in signing/drafting any OL help in the offseason.(Losing Kendall neutralizes signing Dockery)

Campbell possibly could have matured and become seasoned enough to where he could lead a team to the post season...we'll never know because management left him out to dry this season.


If you don't agree with that, then you can at least agree to this. Two years ago receiving was one of our major problems. We draft 3 receivers with our first 3 picks. Last year our biggest liability was obviously our OL. We sign/draft no one to additionally help the OL and then expect Campbell to "step up" and play well in his pivotal year?...yeah right.

Good luck to Campbell but I'm just not seeing everyone's expectation of success with our offense.

Well said! I think that most fans think that Jason Campbell should "step up" or this is "A make or break year", but truth be told unless the line play unbelievably we are destined to fail. The success of the Redskins doesn't lie on Jason Campbell's shoulders it falls on the OL. Jason Campbell's future falls on the OL. If they don't play well next year, Jason will be out of here and we will be stuck looking for a new QB.

Perfectly said along with the Skinny Tee quote as well. The QB always gets the glory or takes the loss on his shoulders which is crap. The O-line has me extremely worried. If Zorn and Campbell go because of this then Vinny needs to be fired as well.
