Yeah I was a little surprised at his comment on Campbell. In fact, the more I read from the players it's clear that right now they heavily favor Collins over Campbell, not that you can blame them with the way Collins is playing.

I'm really starting to wonder if we could have a QB controversy next season.

I think Portis (and others) is basically telling Campbell it's time for him to step up and take control of this offense and this team. With a young QB like JC everyone else has to work twice as hard, and they're willingly doing that. But for this team to be successful for the long run then it's up to Jason campbell to take his game to that next level.

I don't foresee a QB controversy next season. I think this is still Campbell's team and he'll be great, but the time for excuses is over.

I think it will depend on how deep into the playoffs we go. If Collins keeps this up it would be difficult to tell him "thanks but now it's back to the bench for you".

Of course it's easy to say now, but if Collins was starting all this year... damn you really have to wonder where we might be right now.

There will most definitely be a quarterback controversy next year. Gibbs will play it down, as he should.
