I really don't know what Favre will teach Campbell
Slants,Timing,rhythm in deep balls, reading defensives plays better, you know the usual. Hopefully he doesn't teach him to throw INT's but finishing the game......its something we all want !don't we.!

Ask Aaron Rodgers how much Favre taught him. Squat.

I don't want to sound like an peice of crap but JC is 26 now and Brannan could probably out play JC and Brannan is 24 years younger.


Back to my point have JC benched for one year and maybe actully have an pro-bowl year cause again Zorn said he is gonna run the ball"Alot" which means the passing is still not close to being great. While we get Favre it could speed things up and teach JC alot i mean alot say this would ruin JC progress but how? JC would be 27 while Romo was on bench for 2 years and ended up an pro-bowler.

I say Yes to Favre for one year, i mean to be honest our O sounds bad (besides Portis) every time an interview with Zorn he always saids" the D stop the skins all the time in the goal line and int alot of passes. I mean is our O gonna be good? or is the D just ruthless.
Goodbye, credibility.

When you say Zorn likes Brennan better, exactly what are you basing that on??

Nothing. But again .....kinda funny why he drafted him when we got Collins and JC right?. I like JC how ever I don't want him to go and Jason Campbell has the tools but there something wrong here. I can't explain but i think something is gonna happen during next year that will be an huge change.

Not really, we needed a #3 QB. You remember Mark Brunell? He's not with us anymore.

No,no....no! Anyone remember how Johnny U. or Willie Joe finished their careers?That was a sin...Brett needs to go and coach a high school team and move on with his life.

Man, your all over the place in this thread and I'm not sure where your getting all this information. The only thing I have heard Zorn say about the running game is that they would keep allot of our current plays and also keep the terms the same (I believe its a number system for the call on running scheme to be used which will not change). I also don't thank that he has commented on our performance last year like you stated on goal line play because that would be seen as attacking Gibbs as a coach. He might have said something like "we are working on some different looks on the goal line" but not pin pointing it out as you stat.

Re: Should the Redskins take a run at Favre?

While I would never rule anything out with this team, I would put the chances of this happening at slightly above Jordan coming back to the Wizards. While Campbell may not be a Zorn guy, in the sense of being developed or drafted by him, Zorn was brought into the fold initially with the express purpose of developing Campbell. That's why they went with a quarterback guy over someone with perhaps a more established pedigree. Every off season move that has been criticized by the punditry - the run at CJ and the receiver happy draft class - has largely been justified by the brass as an effort to give Campbell what he needs to win, and win now. Thus, while Zorn's mission is of course to win games, it is do to it with Campbell.

Of course there is going to be media speculation linking us to Favre, but that means absolutely nothing in the larger scheme of things. They've linked us to every player who has ever been a free agent ever.

Re: Should the Redskins take a run at Favre?

djnemo -- Drafting WRs doesn't exactly scream win now to me. Typically, it takes 2-3 years to see what you have in a WR. As I said, Im not sure where I really stand on the issue, just trying to say I don't consider it a huge stretch for us to be in the consideration for Favre.

It has nothing to do with winning now, my point was that they are building around Campbell, giving him the weapons to succeed as a quarterback. I really don't think the fact that they are sold on Campbell is open to debate, at least not going into this season.

Re: Should the Redskins take a run at Favre?

This is outta control, the whole Farve issue. I am sick of it, it has almost gotten as outta control as the TO situation with Dallas did with the media coverage.

Makes me want to vomit.

Re: Should the Redskins take a run at Favre?

Matty, no! I love you, but...

Retarded thread.

I think you were probably just trying to get some discussion going on the site, even if it meant starting one that you know will get a resounding no. So I can see starting it up.

People are putting way too much thought into this. The idea that the Skins should go after Brett Favre is laughable.

Re: Should the Redskins take a run at Favre?

Ok, as a fan of another team may I just say I would love for the Skins to get Farve.Please bring him in ...better yet trade for him really make it a 3 ring circus and lets not forget what it would do to JC to be "benched"..........wait ,did you think Farve would sit on the bench and be a back up?Yes the Skins need him.
