Good for Campbell

^ that's the media for you.. No accountablilty

I just love how Campbell was a the problem in DC and the answer in Oakland

Different contexts. Campbell is a good but not great starter. So:
a) if you are trying to become respectable (Oakland), he's a good option
b) if you are trying to win big (Washington), he's less attractive

I don't see all the hate on JC. He wasn't a bad QB he was a middle of the road QB across the statistics board. He wasn't going to excel with this system and the horrendous o-line we had (have?).

^ O line will be much improved this season. Williams is a monster LT and jamal brown is a very good RT. Add Artis hicks and we are much better if we stay healthy.

Boy did people really think JC was that horrible last season? I mean really there is only like 3 qbs that I could think of who would actually play good behind that mediocre line from last year. People seem to think o-line was never the problem last year and that JC was. I remember the 2nd Dallas game last year they sent a 3 man rush that completely overwhelmed our line in about 1 1/2 seconds and had JC on his back in about 3 seconds.

Oakland, while not having a great line, has a damn better line and their skill position players are young and upcoming. I could easily see him having a good season over there.

The great thing about it is, we'll have our answers in a month or two!

Still, it can't be stressed enough to people who are blinded by their JC17 hate: the dude was QB15-17 material while he was here and that wasn't good enough. He's going to a club whose last "franchise" QB weighed more than some of our linemen and flunked himself out of the league with a sizzurp and candy bar addiction. Let that sink in for a second. QB15 is a MASSIVE improvement for a lot of teams.

Whether he can improve and actually rise up to QB10-12 is another matter entirely.

you guys may want to tread lightly with all this anti jc talk. I get blasted something serious whenever i speak the truth,...or at least my truth about that guy. Buuuuuuut who knows maybe some of you all were going on me for saying he was a bum. But hey, give him a shot.

Seriously though, i don't give a hell what he does out there. He should've done it here, but he never got a shot though right guys ????

Bum ass farger !!!!

exactly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can anyone please tell me why everyone is on the JC bandwagon ? ESPN always talked down on Jason but when he leaves D.C, the guy becomes the Raiders savior??? LOL

Maybe you should have been paying closer attention, the "media" was pretty split on Campbell. Some thought Campbell was a victim here others thought he was as much as fault for our struggles as anyone else. It wasn't just one big dump on JC.

Lotus made a strong point as well.

Different contexts. Campbell is a good but not great starter. So:

b) if you are trying to win big (Washington), he's less attractive

And THERE'S the difference, he's a decent QB option in the NFL and it's been a while since you could say that about the Raiders QB position. At the end of the day, in an easier division, I think Jason could make them a playoff team if the Chargers have a rough season (not saying it will be this year, but in the future).

I'm happy for the guy getting a fresh start, I hope it works out for him.

Al Davis equating him to Jim Plunkett isn't going to help him out much, though...wtf? First DHB = Lofton/Rice/Brown, now Jason = Plunkett?

After watching a little of the Raiders preseason game I am happy we got Jason out of here. His long balls were off and he got sacked holding the ball too long... good riddance!
