I'm not taking the owness off of Campbell, I don't know about making the throw, but if it were a big target, that's a totally different situation.

We just got one who is 6'5" 220+ and played with Campbell at Auburn. Why we didn't at least take a shot with him is beyond me. I don't want to hear the "he's not familiar with the playbook", or "he's not ready". The guy is a professional WR, he knows what the heck a fade is. It's worth a shot on 1st down with 30 seconds left in the game and the ball on the +16.
I think sometimes Saunders is so enamoured with his super-intelligent, 700 page playbook that he forgets to let players "make plays".
