I think we need to be clear on what part of your post is the insane part. Implied, strongly, in your post was your opinion that Jason Campbell is not the best quarterback on the Redskins' roster. Fine, that's your opinion, and you are totally entitled to it. There's mounds and mounds of objective evidence we could bring and ask you to defend why you believe Todd Collins and/or Colt Brennan is a better QB then Jason Campbell, but you aren't the only person on this fourm who is of that opinion. I disagree, but that's my prerogative.

No one is attacking you for being of that opinion.

Your post implied that the Redskins are so strong a team, that when Quarterbacked by Todd Collins (or Brennan), they are a 12 win team. 12 wins. As you said, a super bowl contender. Again, that's your opinion of this team, and no one is calling you out on that.

But then you said that they are a 6-10 team with Jason Campbell. And if you were basing your 12-4 prediction off talent, and not some total cosmic fluke, then you are 100% factually inaccurate in your assessment of the effect that one player can have on a team. It, very literally, is not possible for one player to take a SUPER BOWL CONTENDER, and tank them to the point of 6-10.

Maybe you really think the Redskins are somewhere in the middle talent-wise (say, 9 wins), and that if they make a QB change, they could be a little bit better. I would respect that opinion/argument. But you said the Redskins were a 12 win team (which is three more than last year, if you are counting), and that with Jason Campbell, they are all of a sudden a totally talentless team. None of this even considers that maybe, just maybe (as jdlea pointed out), that Todd Collins and Colt Brennan would be among the worst starting QBs in the league if they had to play a full season, and yet...you would still expect the Redskins to go 12-4 without a passing game.

If you were expecting for people not to call BS on that, you clearly don't lurk here often enough.
Great response. The defense rests, your Honor.
