Re: can WE now start a countdown to a new coach and qb

I'm not giving up on Campbell but I cannot Cannot CANNOT believe that he didn't know it was 3 and 8 when he audible to the run. It is unforgivable to be unaware of the situation. I'm at a loss.

Many are concerned however about the mental errors that continue to be a part of his game. If you don't learn from your mistakes you're doomed to repeat them. How long do we wait for the problem to be corrected. That fumble yesterday was one of the plays that helped decide the game. No excuses.

I agree.

At this point, Campbell is not ready to make deciding plays that win games on a consistent basis. In close games, he also makes basic fundamental mistakes that contribute directly to a loss.

It's hard to have this kind of inconsistent play from the quarterback on any team. Good teams like the giants are going to make the redskins offense one dimensional. I would think it's more sophisticated then this, but stack against the run, and let campbell beat you. And at this point, campbell is not ready enough to beat a team like the giants.

And I know it's a team effort for football, but so much of the game is run through the qb, especially when the other team is intent on shutting the running game down.

On the bright side, the redskins are good enough to win the next 3 games though.

I would love, just once, to see Zorn put Campbell in the shotgun from the start, give us a 65-35 pass:run ratio and see what happens. I think we'd be very pleasantly surprised with the results. The way Zorn calls plays the QB has to be perfect in order to be productive. One pass attempt over 20 yards (there were longer catch and runs, but I'm speaking of the attempts) a 16:18 run pass ratio late in a game we're down 2 scores. Talk about giving the offense no chance? I know I've been in a bunch of threads saying this, but Zorn needs to prove to me he's an NFL level play caller/game adapter before I write of Campbell.
