You don't hear the criticisms from knowledgeable football analysts (Jaws, Aikman) saying Campbell doesn't read defenses well, that's a fan thing. They've all said he needs to be more comfortable and process things faster, AS DO ALL YOUNG QB. He's made fewer than 25 starts, look at his progression vs. others at a similar stage and the sky isn't falling as quickly as you think.

Yeah i hear ya and im not saying the sky is falling; just saying in my fan opinion i dont see campbell exhibiting the necessary skills a quarterback needs to excel. My opinion isnt based on 1 game but from what ive seen from him since hes been here. Campbell is a good qb but until it starts to click in his head and he starts processing things faster (aka read a D pre-snap and make quick decisions) he wont be great and in this league you need a great qb to be a real threat.
Now if we didnt have a great core on D i would be running right next to chicken little!!
go skins!!!!
(ps i would be very disappointed if JC doesnt get to start the next 2 years)
