Has Zorn already hand picked the QB for his offense?

Last, let's hope the Front Office decides to stock our O-line up through the draft so we can give whomever is under Center a decent chance to get us to the playoffs and beyond.

He can't do much worse. He may even surprise everyone since the leagues other teams don't know his method of play. Brennan is also more competitive than Campbell it seems in his play.

Yup, he failed at being able to throw the ball while laying flat on his a$$ with a defensive player on top of him. It's all JC's fault.

Yeah, you know those crazy college rules teach those QBs some bad habits, like the play stops when you are getting crushed on the ground by some 320 lb DT.

Thanks for my second laugh of the day, the first being the $500 Redskin statue from another thread.

Don't get me wrong I like Colt, but I also think Jason deserves a chance to be in a system for more than 1 year before we say he's not good enough, I could see if he has been in the system for a while and not showing improvement, but remember the 6-2 start he was brilliant..So let's give him another year in the system and see what happens before we replace him with Colt( who has not played in 1 single regular season game) and I've yet to see anything that say's he's better than Jason.

This is a stupid thread. I know there aren't any news, but come on.

dmek25 · 03-21-2009, 04:33 PM

yeah, what he said

It's not THAT bad of a thread. First of all, Campbell really hasn't done much in the NFL thus far. Secondly, he wasn't drafted by Zorn. This means that Zorn doesn't have an attachment to him that say Gibbs would (since he drafted him.) Zorn will (and thus far, has) given Campbell a fair shot -- but if he doesn't make large strides this year, I wouldn't be surprised in the least to see Colt a bit or another QB he picks up. I must say, I'd like to see Colt get some live game action in garbage time sometime.

Personally, I would love to have Cutler on this team -- but not for one of the two great young players we have. You hold on to those players with a firm grip.

I agree on all points, well put daseal...

Guys lets be real, there's only 2 QB'S that could start for us in '09... Campbell or Cutler (I think we will atleast try and get him) I do like Colt but Campbell is better for us right now. And Cold was our 3rd QB last year and maybe again this season, and the best team he faced in his career in college was vs GA and we know what happened then!

Yeah, but what calibre of team surrounded Colt at Hawaii? Could you imagine what Colt could have done, say at Florida, Florida St, Oklahoma? THe bastard would have still set NCAA passing records and then some!!!! JC was from a top Div 1-A school that had two first round running backs as the featured weapons, and a huge o line. Does JC have any Auburn passing records?

Would Timmy Chang have posted in a more pro-like offensive system that doesn't practically throw every down? The one thing that makes Colt better than Chang is his completion percentage.
BTW, one of his receivers, Davone Bess, is with the Dolphins and has had playing time.

CRedskinsRule · 03-21-2009, 08:31 PM

completely off topic, but since i am so qb'd out, why cant we get a qb whose name doesn't start with a C.
That means no to:
Campbell
Collins
Cutler
and
Colt.
Who can we get then???

GMScud · 03-21-2009, 09:11 PM

Colt is what he is - a backup. As in, he's there to back up Campbell (and Collins at this point), should something happen to one or both of them.

It always amazes me that all of the Colt Cult won't acknowledge that he didn't even beat out a 38 year old for the 2nd spot last year, yet they scream he's the next coming at the position.

I'm curious to see if he could be a good player (against 1st stringers in the REGULAR season), but I'll wait until A) Jason starts playing horribly and B) Colt can actually win the job as #1 clipboard holder.
