Re: Why dont the Redskins use audibles?

Unlike college FB, it's kinda hard to make a succesfull audible, and nearly impossible to do it consistantly.

Re: Why dont the Redskins use audibles?

It's a shame that there aren't certain circumstance that Campbell can work a quick hot route change, or something like that. There have been several occasions where the defense has clearly brought the house, and a quick check could have given our offense a better chance...

I gotta disagree with this comment...EVERY good QB uses an audible. Peyton does on every play practically. Most teams will except for those that do not have faith in their QB's.

You shoulda written "GOOD" in CAPS. This is JC, who is lingering around average.

Re: Why dont the Redskins use audibles?

They don't want Campbell changing from a run to a pass on 1st and 2nd down. If they started down that road we would never run because the defense would always show 8. The sight adjustments that the offense has to make are plenty complicated, so its not that Campbell can't handle it. It's a philosophical approach that Saunders and Gibbs share. I suspect the sight adjustments also explain why Brandon Lloyd is so unpopular with the coaches. He hasn't ever learned them. Also, bear in mind that only some of what you see Peyton Manning doing is real He does it a lot, but some of that is for show.

If you go to playoffs then it's time to use Collins and let Campbell practice holding the ball to keep from fumbling and read defense to cut the interceptions and start him for 8 games next year again
