Re: Campbell or Brunell in 2006?
 

[QUOTE=ParkerGibbs]Well obviously we would want the best QB on the field. The thread is to debate whether you think Campbell will put in the offseason work and be mentally ready for the starting roll (to which I say yes).

Phenomenal point about the Bills though, I can easily see the same scenario playing out in DC, and that would really suck.[/QUOTE]

Well if Campbell is really ready then anyone who wouldn't play him is crazy. The fact is that most young QB's are not ready when they get on the field and teams squander seasons hoping to get them ready. I think that knowing how Gibbs is a veteran guy he will not put Campbell on the field unless he thinks he is ready to win games. So lets all hope Gibbs can get him ready in time, but if not another year with Brunell would not necessarily be a bad thing.

Re: Campbell or Brunell in 2006?
 

i think we all wish that campbell would be ready to start by this year, but i dont see that happening, so i voted for brunell

Re: Campbell or Brunell in 2006?
 

Matty - what did you mean by "Assuming Campbell is ready to go, who would you like to see starting opening day '06?" If you mean he's learned the system, then it seems like a no-brainer that Campbell starts. However, if you just mean he is physically able to play, well, then it's also a no-brainer (for Brunell).

Re: Campbell or Brunell in 2006?
 

Brunnel will be the starter until 4 or 5. One good hit and we get to see our future. Im sure Portis is happy to see saunders in DC.

Re: Campbell or Brunell in 2006?
 

Campbell might as well get started next season brunell can serve as a mentor to the youngster and besides brunell can always come in if things aren't up to par!

Re: Campbell or Brunell in 2006?
 

I expect to compete for a Super Bowl next year so unless Campbell is a Marino/Brady clone, (wouldn't that be the shiznit!) you have to go with Brunell.

Re: Campbell or Brunell in 2006?
 

preseason competition, best man wins... if brunell is hurt he gets benched though. i can't take many more 41 yard passing days.

The Future is Now......Campbell

Re: Campbell or Brunell in 2006?
 

I will trust this coaching staff to make that desicion. There is no question that no other staff can boast the credentials that we possess now.

I think Brunnel will be the guy for one more year.

Re: Campbell or Brunell in 2006?
 

Despite the fact Gibbs told Campbell to take off the cap, it' time to go to work I'm not sure what he means by that. I agree it's not likely he will turn a playoff team over to a QB with so little experience, espically if their ambition is to take the next step in 06. We could expect too many growing pains with Campbell at the helm, so it's a matter of whether we want to sacrifice a season or more grooming a young QB or go with Brunell for all the marbels. It's a dilema that I'm glad the coach has to deal with.
Plus, how much is a new coordinator going to change or tarnish what Jason comprehended this year?

i dont think he will tarnish anything. we will keep the same mentality mostly id assume since gibbs is still running the ship, id just assume we would modify some of our offense and add some new plays :duel:

Re: Campbell or Brunell in 2006?
 

I voted for campbell because it said that if he's "ready to go". I think if Gibbs thinks he's ready then why not start the future now. He couldn't do much worse then 120yrds a game....and With saunders on bord, i think our offense wont need him to throw the ball to JUST Moss...Look what Saunders did with the WR in KC. And now he has Moss?????

Re: Campbell or Brunell in 2006?
 

I vote for campbell, the reason is to preserve brunnel body, come play off time campbell might struggle the brunnel is preserve and fresh,

we can win with campbell, just follow steelers, what they did with roethlisberger
after a few weeks of struggle think campbell can raise his game to NFL level
