ANYBODY but Vick. Roddy White was on bust status with Vick slinging him the ball. Now he has a real QB throwing him the ball and is one of the best in the division. Thats all we need, Vick stunting the growth of our young wr's.

And now Pro Bowl TE Algee Crumpler is on bust stats now that Vick is gone. Remember when Keenan McCardell was a bust on the Redskins, or when Chris Carter was a bust on the Eagles? Sometimes it takes WR's a few years to develop. And that real QB you speak of Matt Ryan has yet to win a playoff game. Vick on the other hand.

Re: Tebow: Is he the Redskins solution?

No way I'm calling it in, and giving up after one game and going after TEBOW...? I'll give the team and JC a chance..

Re: Tebow: Is he the Redskins solution?

Our team has such a small margin for error because were not very good.
We need to build an OL like the Giants.
When we can run against an 8 man front it makes having a productive offense easy.
JC is on the same tier as ELi.
Except that Eli is on a better team.


But, Yes if everything went to shit this season and were forced to look for a QB i would wait and pick up Tebow in that late 1st early 2nd.

He's the only QB i really like from this draft class.

Re: Tebow: Is he the Redskins solution?

I'm starting to believe Tebow is the real deal. This kid has a TON of skills...sure he's not "NFL ready", but seriously...who is in terms of QB's leaving college?

Let me point out some stats:
14 tds, 12 ints, 2971 passing yards, 60% comp, 80.3 qb rating in 16 games started...
13 tds, 6 ints, 3245 passing yards, 62.3% comp, 84.3 qb rating in 16 games started...
16 tds, 11 ints, 3440 passing yards, 61.1% comp, 87.7 qb rating in 16 games started...

Do you know who belongs to those numbers?
1- Flacco
2- Campbell
3- Ryan

Ryan was the best of the bunch by most accounts, Campbell not that far behind, and Flacco pulling up the rear. Yet most would regard Campbell as a bust, or nothing special. Fact is, Ryan had one of the most prolific running games in the NFL, and Flacco had a great defense, and good overall team around him. They both had 11 wins so they got a ton of publicity...same with campbell if he had 11 wins. Point is, everyone talks about flacco and ryan like they are the second coming of well, peyton manning...they are not. Flacco is not going to be a super special qb...ryan is more like a hasselbeck type qb, which is good. Players like Ryan don't come around all the time. Players like Tebow don't either. He has the entire package including amazing elusive skills. He is a GREAT leader as well. With a little NFL coaching, Tebow could be the next Steve Young.

Re: Tebow: Is he the Redskins solution?

Let me point out, I am NOT ready to trade in Campbell for Tebow right now...but I certainly reserve that right come season's end. Either Campbell produces THIS year, or it's time for him to go. He still has a leash in my mind, but a short one.

These next few weeks are going to be dangerous as it relates to fans perception of Campbell as I think he's going to do good very good the next few weeks, and as a result people will start talking about Campbell as the next franchise QB. His only early test will be Carolina and then his first definite test will be against the Eagles on the 26th of October and the Falcons the following week (though that might be more of a test for defense). How he ends the season against the Giants, Cowboys, and Chargers will really determine what we have in Campbell.

These next three weeks on the other hand should serve as more of a field sobriety test in that he better have a rating over 90 with at least 6 TD passes and 600 yards. Of course more importantly we should win thanks to him not in spite of him.

Re: Tebow: Is he the Redskins solution?

Tebow in the NFL will be like a bad relationship.

You know the story. The woman looks really good, she performs well, and there is so much promise that you hook up.

Later, your heart is broken, the promise turned out to be empty, and you can barely look at her anymore.

Just say no to Tebow.

Sounds like the relationship that we are in now with Jason. Just that you stick with the broad (excuse me ladies) because shes cool, but in reality you hate her because she does nothing to keep you around. You've been with her this long so you might as well stick through it only to break up with her one year too late.

Even if Campbell does all of those things, if Portis just happens to go for 120, 89, and 107 yards in the next three weeks, people will just credit Portis for all of Campbell's success.

That's what happened last year.
