Those are the main criticisms I've seen around here all offseason about Campbell.

If I had a dollar for every time I read a variation of 'I'll take more interceptions if it means that Campbell is taking chances' or 'he needs to throw the ball down the field because good things might happen' then I'd be rich. The irony is some of us rip in others what we want in ours. [/rant]

Romo is an OK QB, he's nothing particularly special from what I've seen. Without T.O. I think he's really going to struggle this season because teams are going to take Witten away and single cover their other WR. Jacobs needs to worry about his own passing attack though because Kevin Boss, Sinorice Moss and Dominik Hixon ain't scaring anyone.

Paintrain posts another astute opinion.
