I second that. Everyone either hates JC or thinks he's still in an evolving process.

Personally, I'm down for Brennan. I mean if he was starting, we obviously would have killed the Giants.. Pats style.

I think the guy is going to be awesome in the NFL someday, but I'm not willing to call him the second coming of Joe Montana just yet, or....I know Madden would like this, the second coming of FavreAH! LOL! But, I will say, if it's meant for him to step in and lead the team, I think things could get exciting. Sort of the same thing a lot of us Redskins fans were saying about Jason Campbell a couple of years ago.

lol my italics was sarcasm.

But I loooooove Brennan and would not be opposed to giving him a starting role if we got that damn desperate.

Agreed! And sorry I missed the italics. In a weird sort of way, he kind of reminds me of Jim McMahon. Not necessarily with how we plays, but just how laid back he is.

Re: JC is not what I thought.

Either way, I'm thinking this year is Campbell's "make it, or break it year." No matter how many games this team wins this season, Campbell needs to show that he can adapt to this offense. I'm thinking if it doesn't look like he's making any progress by mid-season, it could be possible that we'd maybe see Colt. I, too, wouldn't be unhappy if that happens, but I just want the best guy for the job, no matter who it is.

Campbell has 2 more years on his rookie contract, he will play those out unless he becomes Kyle Boller all of the sudden. This is not a make or break year for Campbell, if anything, it will be next year.

It is UNIVERSALLY understood by anyone with a smidgen of football knowledge that Colt is at least 2 years from being a viable BACKUP so the Cult of Colt might as well take a seat next to him on the bench.

I'm not so sure about that. Colt really really suprised me this pre season. I didn't think he could play at the NFL level but he looked like he belonged this pre season. He makes fast reads, gets rid of the ball quickly and is very accurate. I'm in no way saying he should be starting but lets see where he is next pre season.

That's about the most rational Colt-love I've seen. If JC completely craps the bed all season, I would be interested to see Colt against starters in the pre-season next year if for nothing more than to truly gauge his ability.

Re: JC is not what I thought.

People on this site love to blame just ONE person when many people are at fault. It happened with Doughty in the Jacksonville game and it is happening with Campbell in this game. I don't think anyone is out to defend Campbell's bad plays, but people act like he single handedly brought down the team, while overlooking other areas in which the team screwed up such as pass protection, play calling, and dropped passes.

Re: JC is not what I thought.

I'm not going to say we wouldn't have won this game with Peyton Manning at Quarterback, because we did hold them to 17 points. And Quarterback was certainly part of the problem tonight.

Other problems:

-No semblance of a running game
-Poor run defense
-No pressure on the QB in the first half
-Multiple Blown Coverages on the Giants TD Drive
-Piss poor blocking most of the night
-Receivers never, ever open

The defensive problems were minor, and as the game went on, they disapeared. The offensive issues seem to be rather major, and not bound to fix themselves anytime soon. Rest assured that Jason Campbell will be part of the solution, and a force that offsets the other problems. It will take time though.

If that isn't acceptable to you, then don't watch the games. It's not worth your time, because there are about 20 teams in the NFL that are better than this one that you can be rooting for.

You're the man . . .

I just don't get why some fans can't accept that this team is gonna take time to get into an offensive rhythm.

Yes the offense looked god awful, Campbell isn't making his reads quick enough, and our chances of blowing teams away offensively right now look very bleak. Zorn would tell you the same thing I'm sure.

But Campbell has talent, Zorn knows how to coach QB's, and I have patience. I just hope Snyder does too . . .

P.S. I was happy to see the D-line can get pressure on a QB finally, but we REALLY need to fix our run Defense.

Re: JC is not what I thought.

Let me get this straight. I argue that JC is not capable and you say that(directed to me) Matty might have to step in after that in general why don't you watch another team? I was a JC fan all along so when I get mad about his development this year you come up with this?
