How do we think Jason will perform in his first starting season?

[Dogtag]

He is a new NFL quarterback ... I expect him to perform as one.

I really honestly think Jason Campbell is a robot.

Joe Gibbs feigned working in Nascar, when actually he was undergoing one of the greatest cover ups in NFL history.

He needed a prototype QB, someone he could build his team around. He wanted to come back to the NFL big time. He had the real Jason Campbell disappear, and used modern technology to create a perfect quarterback. Notice Jason Campbell's lack of emotion.

He never smiles, cringes, reacts, or shows any inclination to human empathy. His dialogue is eerily similar to Coach Gibbs.

"I always find a strong Bible verse that’s going to give me strength to go out and do what I need to do that day. I always ask Pastor Brett or someone that I know that can know how to give me good scripture to read for the upcoming game." -Jason Campbell

His poise in the pocket, passing accuracy, and incredible scrambling illusiveness is just a fraction of evidence to support my theory.

He will have a very good 2007, there is no question. What we really need to do is watch out for him in 2027.

I agree w/much if not all of what's been said already.

I am really psyched to see him develop cause I believe he'll be a great qb. Not necessarily a guy w/huge #s, but a great decision maker & clutch player. I remember watching him beat my Hokies in the sugar bowl in 05 & I was thinking that the skins should take a look at him. I had no idea we'd trade up to get him, but I'm happy we did. He gives us stability at qb we haven't had since Frerotte & Johnson.

I'm predicting a very strong season for JC.

If you look at his last 3 starts last year he posted a pretty solid 87.1 QB rating with 4 TDs and only 1 INT.

I can see him throwing 20+ TDs and 3000+ yards.

JC will perform well. He's ready. Now we will see more deep balls and hopefully that will turn into quick scores. Our offense will be much better than what we saw the first 9 weeks last year.

I think with Portis and Betts both healthy we'll be a run-first offense, even more so than we were last year. I also think that with Fletcher making the calls in the middle of the D, the defense will improve to at least mediocre levels.

Both of those factors play a role in Campbell's production. I think he'll do decently, but won't throw for an amazing number of TDs because we'll get most on the ground.

56% completion, 3100 yards, 18 TDs, 12 INTs

[GTripp0012]

I think he will complete closer to 59% for 3,600 yards 17 TDs and 15 INTs.

I think he's going to show remarkable poise under pressure, and people will start to say "Hey, maybe the coaching staff actually knew it was doing easing him and not throwing him into the fire from day one"

I think he'll show poise under pressure, and people will blame him for not being a "winner". I'm not so sure that optimism will prevail around here.

Agree

Considering he only threw 6 INTs in his first 7 NFL starts I don't see why that ratio would increase as he gains more experience. I was impressed with how he didn't force the issue last year, but he was still aggressive in spots when he needed to be.

agreed, he really didn't look like a guy playing in his first starts, he looked more like a vet on a struggling team.

His first pass of the year was somewhat fitting, he hits Loyd w/a perfect deep ball but he drops it. That was symbolic of the kind of year it was, but he kept improving despite the team playing without the fire they should've. Loyd I think could be a big part of his progress. If he can be counted on JC can really open it up.

I agree with that as well. I think with ARE, Cooley, Lloyd, and Moss all having the offseason/training camp to build rapport with JC will be extremely beneficial. I think he is the type of QB with whom Lloyd can be effective. JC has the cannon to throw those deep outs and crosses, which are the types of routes that Lloyd found success with in SF.

robots kick so much ass, i just hope we can upgrade his delivery to take care of that lil malfuction of him having to bring his arm back to long before his arm goes forward to release the ball . . . but i really like how he has pocket presence and can keep plays alive a second longer than brunnel could
