As far as a knock on Collins throwing the longball, You don't really need the really long ball if you can throw a 15-20 yard pass that hits the WR or TE in stride for YAC. That is my personal knock on Campbell. Campbell has not been accurate enough this year for a receiver to "continue" the play because all of the receivers are jumping or streching just to make the catch. Several of Collins passes against the Bears went for extra yardage, because the receivers could catch them on the run and continue the play. That is big to me. Accuracy is more important than arm strength.
