Grade Jason Campbell

Chief X_Phackter · 11-19-2006, 09:45 PM

I gave him a B, and now that I think about it I probably should have given him a B+/A-. For not having a running game what so ever, and pretty much no defense to back him up, he did great. He put the ball downfield, a couple were short, but that will come with more reps. He had good zip on the ball, good movement in the pocket, and I think he completed passes to seven different receivers. All good things. I think that if we had done a better job run blocking, and if the defense had showed up a little we definitely would have won today. I can't call what is wrong with the defense, it just doesn't make sense. The talent is there, they just don't get it done. Good Job JC!!

A. Srew it, he deserves an A. At least he threw down field.

I also think Jason is going to be the kind of QB where we're never out of a game. With his arm strength and acuracy, if we're down on the scoreboard, he has the ingredients to bring a team back. I never felt that way with Brunell.

Redskins_P · 11-19-2006, 10:14 PM

I gave him a B. He looked really poised in the pocket and made some nice throws. Main thing....he converted some critical 3rd downs for us. If that first pass he threw was thrown to Moss instead B.Lloyd, that would've been a td easily...

Who gave Campbell a C and who gave him a D?

Has to be Mark Brunell.

GoSkins! · 11-19-2006, 10:33 PM

I was going to give him a B, but that pass to Thrash he made while under big time pressure gives him the plus.

1st start, trying to make a comeback, no INT. For a first start that says a lot. He had some under throws and over throws that cost him an A, but considering he has had about 5 practice days with these guys he did extremely well.

The season is lost, but we now have something (someone) good to watch!

The question should be what was there not to like about JC today. I think he did everything we could have realistically expected him to do, and maybe then some. He looks so calm and poised out there, that's what impresses me the most.

Jason72 · 11-19-2006, 10:49 PM

In his first game as a pro he was a small upgrade over 2006 Mark Brunell. While I'm sure there will be some rough outings in the future, he's going to get allot better.

Imagine if he had a healthy Portis and Moss!

Sheriff Gonna Getcha · 11-19-2006, 10:51 PM

I'd still like to know who gave him a D and a C.

Vaquero? Sandtrapjack? Giantone?

memphisskin · 11-19-2006, 11:03 PM

JC gets an A from me. His first start looked a lot more promising than anything I've seen in a while. I could see him adjusting, like when he bounced a comeback in to Lloyd and then threw high the next time (almost killing Lloyd in the process). He wasn't perfect, but considering the talk on this board was that he was going to throw for 150, two picks and no tds I'd say he was damn close.

I love whoever gave the kid a D. I bet it's the same guy who called the Venus de Milo some crap because it had no arms.

Redskins_P · 11-19-2006, 11:04 PM

Another key note on Campbells performance, he completed his passes to 7 different receivers. At least he's spreading the ball out.

JoeRedskin · 11-19-2006, 11:25 PM

Didn't see all of it. But I did see some nice escapablility and an a good arm. He also seemed to make some good choices. All in all, for a first start - very nice.

GTripp0012 · 11-19-2006, 11:30 PM

He did his part to put us in position to win the game. On the Mark Brunell scale, that's a D (sorry, couldn't resist).

A+/B-, he earned it.

But seriously, I think I'm being a bit generous, maybe overanalyzing the conditions (he certainly didn't have A level production, not even close). If you gave him an A, you must have loved the job Brunell did, or just are horribly biased.
