I think the problem is that Campbell doesn't put air under the long ball. I remember an announcer last year saying that Moss was the best at adjusting to the ball. That's what happened in the famous Dallas game. Campbell's long passes are too flat, and the receivers don't have time to adjust. If you pass it long enough and the receiver has position then they catch the ball (if it has air under it), even if they have to slow down to make the catch. The other option is that the DB climbs up the receiver's back, and that's pass interference. He has to allow the receivers to make the play.
