Nice pass. But it was a really great catch.

Conspiracy theory time. What if there were sorts of hype on trading Campbell, created during the off season, to motivate him to step up. What if the front office was going through the motions, having the talks, taking it as far as they could without actually pulling the trigger on the trade (players or draft picks) to replace JC? All this done to see how he would handle it, motivate him to take the roll on the team that is now being reported. I know if my boss was talking outwardly, or "let it leak", about bringing in a replacement for me, regardless of the how I thought I was doing at my job, I know I would take measures to step up that much more. I doubt it.. but interesting perspective.

Regarding the thread title, I also think JC is a class act. I think he does have what it takes to take us to the next level. As mentioned earlier in the thread, one man does not make a team. Looking at the perrianal winners of late, it isn't the big "show boats" that are doing it, but more so the quieter, humble ones. IMHO.

If we can have the Cult of Colt, we can also have the Case for Chase.

Or maybe not...

Funny, I was just talking to a friend about this... but asked the question of how long it would be before there was a "Chase for Chase".

I would not call what you wrote a conspiracy theory. I would call it a possibly good motivational strategy. I also would call it likely not too far from the truth.

With both Cutler and Sanchez, we could have pulled the trigger if we REALLY had wanted to. But, in both cases, all that was done was noisemaking.

I think the Sanchez noisemaking had the additional goal of helping Orakpo to fall to us.

I would add that the same strategy apparently is playing out at WR and OL - that is, everywhere where Zorn has openly said that he wants guys already on the roster to "step up" this year.

And, yeah, JC is one class act.

I think there was genuine interest in Cutler and to a lesser degree Sanchez as well. I don't buy it was simply a motivational ploy for Campbell. That's really going too far.

Ay, if it lights a fire under his behind I'm all for it. JC needs to step up and take this team where it needs to go and if talk of trade doesn't do it or hurts his feelings he should consider another profession. Time to get on the horse and lead the war.

Although it seems clear to me that the interest in Sanchez was never great, it is hard for me to disagree with you. I do not know what was said behind closed doors. And it makes some good football sense to at least inquire about both Cutler and Sanchez, since both are good QB's.

But it doesn't have to be an either/or. It could be that inquiries were made to see if we could get either cheaply. If not, then the noise could be used to motivate JC. Either way, from a certain point of view, the team wins, or thinks that it does anyway.

hilarious... although to go 0-6 we WOULD have to lose to the Rams, Detroit, AND KC. Lord knows the implosions if that happened. Danny might fire the WHOLE team, except Portis and Cooley of course!!!

Yeah, what the hell is he waiting for?! Get out there and win some games before Snyder decides to replace him tomorrow!

Campbell is a bum. He has no wins in the last four months.
