Starting Campbell Now Makes Cap Sense

I don't care if the loss was Brunell's fault. He won't lead us anywhere with the team that's around him. I don't think putting in Campbell is going to turn the season around. The season is pretty much over. Why not play Campbell? Why keep him sitting on the bench? Eating up cap room with whatever cap number he has. He's supposed to be the future of the team, well it's time for them to find out.

If everyone wants to wait for 2 more losses then I guess I could deal with that. But they're gonna lose to Indy and they'll be lucky to beat Dallas, then what? I say the latest Jason should start is against Dallas. He'd have the bye week to prepare and then be fine.

Well, the key to the rest of the season lies beyond the bye week. Looking at the schedule, the toughest post-bye game is @ Phili, and every other game is winnable. If they play like the team they were supposed to be preseason, why not?

The Colts game means almost nothing. Think about it. If you lose the game, and ended up winning out (all but the road Phili game), you would likely hold the tiebreaker at 10-6. If you won the game, you still have the same conference record, meaning that you would likely not have the tiebreaker (If the Eagles or Cowboys or whoever also went 11-5). Either way, the only way they get back in this thing is to get hot AFTER the bye. Savior is a bad role to put Jason Campbell in. The defense has to step up or its not happening.

EDIT-That doesnt matter statement is only from a divisional perspective. From a Wild Card perspective, we need all the wins we can get.
