Campbell's numbers dont lie

Anyhow, the best thing for the Redskins is for Campbell to take control of the QB position and lead this team because then it's one less position for us to worry about. And we can focus on OL and RB.

But after 5 years, I expect more from Campbell at this point. He's a first round draft pick that we gave up a lot for. Is it his fault we did that? No, but we did and because of that he has to live up to certain expectations. Fair or not.

At some point, you have to stop looking at gradual progressions in various stat lines and just ask yourself "Do you trust Jason Campbell to carry the team on his back and lead them to victories?" I'm not there yet, and I think by now I should be.

Thats basically what it all comes down to and when you watch games like the one vs Denver and he is either missing or over throwing open wr's it makes you wonder if he can turn it on in a must score situation. This is the NFL, you arent going to have many blown coverages by the defense or 5yds of separation between your wr and the db on every play but when those scenerios do present themselves you must make those plays and from what we have seen i cant say id feel too confident in a 2 minute situation with JC under Center.

Campbell's accuracy has been spotty since the beginning of October, and I agree that NFL passers have to be accurate. When the accuracy numbers come in at the end of the year, it wouldn't shock me to see Campbell in the 16-20 range, below a lot of passers he was more accurate than last season.

I'd say that's the single biggest reason that our offense is not converting in situations that it did last year: Campbell's missing open receivers too often.

I often agree with Tripp.

But i don't know about this one.

I would put the onus on the OL and the suspect playcalling.
I don't think JC misses any more then other QBs, but the other QBs have a greater margin for error because the have better overall teams.

I've watched too many NFC east football games to say that JC misses more open receivers then Eli, Romo or McNabb.

HTTR!

I think we're gonna get a chance to make a good assessment of JC now that it appears the OL is coming together and there is competent playcalling (except when Zorn steals a call here and there).
