I don't think that if you happen to play Campbell you'll all of a sudden start winning ball games. I say this season is not salvagable with a guy like Mark Brunell at QB. It's time to put the kid in and let him learn how to play in this league. I know, however, that they'll rediscover the deep ball if Campbell comes in. He'll attempt to stretch the field. I don't buy that guys aren't open, I do buy that they're not seeing the ball come their way. Brunell plays not to lose. It's disgusting.

On a similar note, I swear that if Campbell comes in and throws a few picks and then we hear "we gotta protect the ball" I'm gonna wanna kill him. Protecting the ball isn't working. Going 3 and out and then punting isn't any better than throwing a 30+ yard interception. At least you don't like you're too chickenshit to the throw the ball down the damn field. I think if we had someone who made defenses back off Clinton would have had an easy 100 yard game today, but what the hell did they have to fear? One deep ball the whole game? Are you kidding me?
