It's just that we are asking everyone BUT Jason Campbell to do their job. Because of his efficiencies everone else has to play damn near perfect. When Moss runs a post route Jason throws a fly. When Kelly ran that beautiful route against Pittsburgh he's running across the field and where did Jason throw it ? Straight. But the deep ball is his best right ? When receivers run slants or drags or crossing routes he doesn't throw to them he usually throws behind them. He doesn't beat the DB by throwing the ball to the SPOT that the receiver is going to end up but to the area near where the receiver will be but he has to wait for him to get there, therefore giving a guy time to recover. I'm sorry bro, it's all about the JC. He's been playing in this league for too long to get passes on the rookie mistakes that he still makes. Cry about the O-Line all day but we can see that they really aren't the problem. It's him. Point Blank. This team is missing one thing to put them over the hump and until THAT part of this team is fixed we'll still be a middle of the pack coulda shoulda woulda type team.

I would say that it is not all about JC, but it is about this team not having a playmaker. We don't have an offensive player that makes others around him better. That's plain and simple. You can typically get by in this league with an average QB or RB or WR as long as you have a playmaker or two that can change the outcome of the game.

Let's take Minny for example...they've had average/pedestrian QB play, average WRs, but they have a playmaker in Adrian Peterson and their defense. In our team, these would be the candidates to be playmakers: our defense, clinton portis, santana moss, and maybe cooley...unfortunately none of those players/units are considered playmakers.

Ok . Why didn't Broncos take Campbell ? They have playmakers great receivers . but picked Orton instead.

Why did Skin's go after Sanchez and Cutler?

I think you are missing the point...my point is that our team needs playmakers if we are to have an average QB. And I was saying that teams can get by with an average QB if they have playmakers at other positions. Campbell is an average QB, but he is supposed to have a playmaker in Portis and in our defensive unit...but none of them are, despite the fact that we are playing Portis and people in our defense as though they are playmakers.

And I think you could have picked a better example than Denver, a team that basically alienated one of their playmakers (Marshall) and ran the other out of town (Cutler)

The Skins went after Sanchez and Cutler because they want a playmaker QB...but I don't know if there is a team out there that has only one playmaker that can carry the rest of the team (well except Brady in '06).
