I agree but that's a BIG if. The guy has been hurt every year he has been here. But he should be fine if his shoulder has healed and he doesn't have to play for 5 weeks in a row. We can get by with him if he only has to play 1-3 weeks.

Re: New level of disrespect

If this is the case. I think it's fair to say that Jason Campbell is highly under-rated.

During his in the game experience, he's both grown and performed above anyones expectations.

Who honestly isn't ecstatic about this kid?

Re: New level of disrespect

One part of me says: "Same old Same old"

Another part of me says: "Wait, Oakland (Rookie and a never-has been), Cleveland (rookie and TWO never has beens), Houston (THREE never has beens but one with some potential), Denver (Their second year is "Elway-Like"?? c'mon) - what BS groupthink is this?

Another part of me says: Eh, they may be right, we haven't shown much consistency at ANYTHING over the last fifteen years.

Another part of me says: JC's got all the skills they talk about other young QB's having and is gonna tear apart the league. MB is more than adequate back up. Who cares what these idiots write. Do I give a flaming f*** what they think??


The voices inside my head cause me to twitch - I should go get my sniper rifle and see who keeps telling them to argue like this.

Re: New level of disrespect

I don't get the Cutler stuff. Campbell and Cutler's stats are identical from last year.

I am really surprised at the degree Campbell is flying under the radar this year, outside of Washington. With a few exceptions (John Clayton, Mort, Jim Mora) people are viewing him as a de facto inheriter of the position who is more back up material, rather than the guy who was chosen and groomed by Gibbs to be the man going into the future. That idiot Colin Cowheard was trashing the Skins on his crap show and argued, who ya gonna get to play quarterback? Jason Campbell? Come on! I'll take Eli Manning and the Giants any day (he then went on to praise the Giants offensive line situation, which grants some perspective).

Last time I checked Campbell was a first round pick with a championship pedigree who played solidly in his first couple NFL starts right? Am I missing something? When did he become a mo?

I thought Jc played OK in his 7 starts and looked as he was getting better as the year went on but we have to remember he only won 2 games (I think two games) his stats were just OK. I myself am happy with JC but I would not bet the farm on him yet.

What can we expect until we put up the numbers and win some games this is what we are.

Re: New level of disrespect

I dont know how much I agree with the Iggles at number 5, I think they said it best themselves with the opening sentence
"but now 31, he has lost significant playing time due to injuries over the past several seasons and durability is a big question."
The fact that the in his last three games before he sat out for the last 6 was averaging right around a 48% completion percantage and threw for a total of 2 touchdowns and a pick seems like a pretty darn good indicator that mcnabb is on the decline. Dont get me wrong, he's still a great athlete but to put the iggles at 5 with Mcnabb on the decline, Feely and Holcolmb, who are capable backups, but arent anything to wrtie home about both with a 1-1 TD-INT ratio an extremely average rating. Id put both San Diego and St. Louis in front of them. Both IMO have more capable backups with st. louis in Frerotte and San Diego with Volek.

Re: New level of disrespect

I can't understand how a young, athletic QB with a cannon where an arm should be, can be so lowly rated. For his first half year starting he was really good, IMO. His decision making will get alot better this year (always does with new QB's).

The only thing i can say is that when he leads us to the playoffs this year, it is going to be even sweeter for us when these hacks are made to eat their words!

Yeah but we have...Casey Bramlet. World Bowl MVP. Watch. He'll be our #3 this year and he'll have to come in and he'll become the new Frank Reich.

Re: New level of disrespect

I didn't see anybody repost the whole article, so here is the write up. I copied and pasted it from insider:

30. Washington Redskins

With a full offseason as the starter, young Jason Campbell is expected to show vast improvement in 2007 and take over this team. He has excellent overall skills, a strong arm and a potentially outstanding deep ball, but he makes bad decisions at times and throws into coverage. The hope is that another year in the offensive system will help his recognition. The coaches will also utilize a run-oriented offense to take the pressure off. Veteran Mark Brunell restructured his contract to stay as Campbell's mentor and backup. Even though his skills and arm strength are diminishing, he still knows this offense and his leadership and poise could be invaluable if Campbell falters and he was forced to play. The No. 3 QB will be Todd Collins. He has a great grasp of this offense and he's probably better than a lot of No. 2 QBs in this league.

Tom Brady and Peyton Manning make bad decisions and they throw into coverage too. I can't count how many times I see Manning do it. If your going to be a great QB sometimes you have to take some chances. This means nothing to me. Just some dumb man's opinion. What's the old saying? Opinions are like assholes? Everyone has one but...... perhaps someone can complete this. I forgot the last part.

Re: New level of disrespect

Whatever. Until we actually win something, this is the way things go.

I prefer being underrated to over-hyped. It will make winning all the more sweet.

(For what it's worth, the write-up doesn't sound bad at all, except that it's number 30. Whatever.)
