Re: The Myth of "It's all [insert QB's name here] Fault!"
dgack,
It is clear Campbell is not the sole person at fault here. More of the fault lies with the serious lack of a running game and an old and under performing O-line. But reading the stats alone is very misleading. In Zorn's offense Campbell throws mostly short/high percentage passes in the flats and WR screens. How many times have we had 3rd and 10 and Campbell completes a short pass and we get stopped on downs? That is going to look good on Campbell's stats as a completed pass and positive yards, but the result is failure for the team and winning. I like Campbell, but he has yet to show he is a franchise qb. Campbell does not connect on the long ball very often. The stats also don't show he is slow in his decision making. That he sometimes locks on to his primary receiver with his eyes and is not known for looking off safety's. His foot work is still sloppy, especially when he is throwing to his left, he seems to look uncoordinated when setting up to throw to his left. I think is good that you bring up that Campbell is not the main culprit in all of this. |
