This is the Al Saunders Offense

Come on, Collins has been in Saunders' system for what 7 years now, and Campbell has only been in it for two. Collins is a 37 year old vet who's seen it all, and Campbell is a 25 year old kid who's still learning. From what I hear Campbell is extremely bright and will only get better. Don't insinuate to me that he doesn't have the "head" to run this offense, young QB's just take time.

Well how many years before Campbell gets it? Brunell never figured it out and he was a seasoned vet. The whole purpose of sitting Campbell the first season and a half was to avoid throwing a QB out there who doesn't understand the offense. IMO Campbell has made some horrible decisions late in games and it wasnt because he didn't understand the offense, it was his inability to make the right decision that was presented before him. These type of decisions regardless of schemes are instinctive, to many are wrapped up in his physical abilities, but QB is about the ability to know and anticipate what the defense is going to do so you know which receiver to throw to, Collins has shown more ability to do that than any QB we have had since Gibbs 2. Receivers are not all of a sudden getting open because Todd is playing QB, Todd is able to find them and deliver the ball with accuracy, IMO we are going to be hearing the excuse that Campbell is still learning the offense for a long time.
