Re: campbell is culpepper clone?

i wouldn't start the whole comparing thing just yet, because if patrick ramsey has a breakout season this year, what are we gonna do with campbell? if the skins trade him, i'd be pissed, because he would probably go be a superstar somewhere else.

Keep them both. They'll both be under contract next year for relatively low cost against the cap.

The Chargers have Brees and Rivers again this year. They'll eventually have to get rid of one, but until then, it's not a bad situation at all.

Besides, if Ramsey has that kind of season, that would mean we'll probably go to the playoffs this year. So whatever problems we face in the following offseason, I'll gladly take them and deal with them later. I just want to see some wins.

None of it means jack.. Culpepper has won what???
Campbell hasn't even taken a snap! It's like saying "what if the Nazis won"...it's way too hypothetical.

I'd rather J.C. develop into a great QB and become the 1st Jason Campbell and have other qb's compared to him.

Re: campbell is culpepper clone?

Someone here compared Jason Campbell to a young Doug Williams and said that Campbell had a better touch on his long throws. I hope that's right.

When Williams was a rooke and for his first few seasons with the Bucs, he had lots of trouble with the deep ball. Tha Ayatullah Khomeni was in charge in Iran at the time and the Bucs' coach once said that Doug Williams was the only person in Earth who could overthrow the Ayatullah.

Good line. And it gives you an idea how much Doug Williams progressed as a QB in his career.

Carry on...

Won what? WWII or the soccer game against the allied POWs in "Victory"?

Re: campbell is culpepper clone?

I hate to say this, but Campbell reminds me of Tony Banks more than anyone else. Watching him at Auburn reminded me of Tony Banks at Michigan State which scares me to death.

Re: campbell is culpepper clone?

Exactly. I bet he's more mobile than Culpeper. I mean you can only run SO fast being that huge.

Re: campbell is culpepper clone?

As long as Jason doesn't develop that annoying "do-the-hustle roll your hands around" thing, I'm fine. Why does Culpepper think that looks good?

Re: campbell is culpepper clone?

Culpepper has won a few important season games. Nothing to speak of in the playoffs in fact you might label him a choker. HE is a big guy who gets away from teams because of speed and strength. Anybody remember last year against the skins. Our defense dominated them but he was like Tarkenton back there. Was very impressive.

What has Campbell won, a SEC title. So did Steve Spurrier and we all know what happened there. I have reservations about Campbell put he also has not played a down yet so I feel it would be unfair to give my opion till seen.

Re: campbell is culpepper clone?

Why make any comparisons at all. Let Jason Campbell be Jason Campbell. The dude may define his own style and bring us 4 rings. Who knows? Why compare him to Culpepper? Just because both are black? Doug Williams? Again....

Campbell played under 4 different O-Coordinators at Auburn. Finally found one in Borges who could display his talents. It was a west coast style of offense adapted to the Auburn players. Gibbs does not play a west coast style of O. Can Campbell be a pocket passer? Auburn history does not give me a warm fuzzy about that, but the coaches in Redskin Park have been raving about him. I'm wondering what he's doing that has won over the coaches so quickly. I'm guessing he might be more than a system QB, but having the right coaching is important to his development. Let's just wait and find out who Jason Campbell is.

Good points. However, I believe that they will be implementing some West Coast elements what with Bill Musgrave on board now

Good post.

No Gibbs doesn't run a west coast offense but supposedly the terminology of the two offenses is similar which could help shorten his learning curve.

Re: campbell is culpepper clone?

Gibbs does run a variation of the West Coast offense. He runs a lot of short passes intented to chew up the clock. The main difference is he is run first.
