How The Zorn HC Hire Effect Jason Campbell

I agree. JZ and JC will be joined at the hip for a while. He will spend more time with him and let the other coaches concentrate on all the other areas, atleast in the beginning.

That's what I'm thinking. He's been a QB coach for a while, so he'll be able to give that extra help to get JC where he needs to be. JC already knows he can play and compete, hopefully they'll let him use that gun he's got.

There is going to be an adjustment period. No question about that. The offense is going to probably struggle coming out of the gate. Hopefully the defense will be able to pick up the slack. I also want to know if they plan of re-signing Collins.

Everyone including me is assuming that Collins is a goner. But are assuming too much too quickly? What do you think the chances are that Collins stays? 1 in 10, 1 in 100? Personally, I think he would thrive in the west coast system. Just wondering if anyone thinks there is any chance he stays.

I think he's gone too. He is going to follow Al to STL. Which leads to my next question. Who's going to back-up JC? Brunell?

Well most people have assumed Brunell will leave. But with Collins leaving too, you have to bring in a vet backup. Those options tend to be limited at best. So, the question then becomes, "How do we feel about keeping Brunell around? What are the cap factors, etc?" And then we can all shake our heads in amazement that Brunell outlasted Gibbs. I'm almost rooting for it because I can hear the rage coming from certain quarters of this forum.

Also, if it hasn't already happened, who will be the first member of The Fedayeen Ramsey to suggest we bring him back?

this could be one of the best things to happen to Campbell. his senior year at auburn( his best statistically) they ran a variation of the west coast offense. so the transition period may not be that long

And if that ends up being here, then we DO have an issue with the front office structure.

My bet is Trent Dilfer will be the QB who comes in back up JC. TD is an UFA and a former pupil of Zorn. Most Wash Post articles on Jim Zorn's hiring contained one or two positive quotes from Trent Dilfer about what a great coach and leader Jim Z is, so Dilfer in Burgendy and Gold is a good bet. Not bad to have someone familiar with the WCO and who's a Super Bowl winning QB as your backup. He's also not a guy who will be itching to be the starter, but will be willing to serve as a mentor for JC. Strong man of faith to who would be a positive locker room influence!

And we'd finally get the QB Norv always wanted here in the first place! (or was it Casserly that wanted him?)

This will not work out well for JC as the WCO is all about timing and getting the ball out with short passes. Campbell is a terrible short passer and is very slow getting the ball out. I predict by the end of the 2009 season he wont be the starter anymore.
