oh, and yes, the middle of the field is now an option. Look for ARE to get some quick catches over the middle, something we haven't seen from him all year cause MB couldn't get it to him.

MB didnt' throw it to him because he was in coverage. JC will throw it, and we'll see more interceptions during the next 6 weeks than we have all year. He'll learn from that experience, I'm sure.

All I'm saying is that I do think giving JC a chance is a good idea so that he can gain experience, but I'm upset that we had to make that choice. Playoffs, Superbowl... gone...

Anyone that has been watching this team without the homer glasses knew that the chances for a Superbowl were gone six weeks ago.

[He Whom Shall Not Be Named] was the real guarantee we wouldn't make the playoffs Hess. he could manage a team with an excellent defense but that was just completely not the case this year, and he just did NOT have what it takes to do any more than that.

Campbell will throw picks sure, but i'm also confident he can score at ANY time. imagine throwing a bomb on the RUN. on a blitz, instead of throwing it away, or to Betts, he'll throw downfield past the safeties. yeah, young QBs can do that.

all the receivers are REALLY going to try and get separation now, because they know Campbell has the arm to really get it to them. even out of the pocket. the whole character of this team has changed. watch and see.

Re: Does Campbell end the 'Cover 2' excuse?

If anything, Campbell has more pressure to perform well, in front of a home field Hess. Putting him on the road, in a situation when the season is over, pretty much means no pressure at all.

No one is asking him to win out, bc it is impossible, so there is no pressure at all.


lol, and cannons and flags arent gonna distract a qb, if anything it would be crowd noise .


Plus do you have any idea how loud, college football stadiums get? They can hold more than FedEX, and the enviroment is as bad.

Only thing Campbell needs to worry about is game speed.

I think Joe Gibbs was upset that he had to make the change as well, but do you honestly think Brunell was going to lead this team to the playoffs this year? Forget the SB.

We'll probably see more picks, but we'll also see more touchdowns. Quarterback is a position that you can't afford to "play safe" when your defense can't stop anybody.

And if you really think that Brunell was the only chance at the playoffs, then that chance was absolute zero. Do you honestly believe Campbell couldn't have led the offense to THREE points last week?

Brunell didn't throw it because he couldn't see over the middle of the field. Why do u think he led the league in completions outside the numbers last year? It's always something, either its the pass protection, lack of a consistent running game, or the receivers not getting open. It's the NFL, receivers only run wide open on us, otherwise you have to get the ball into a window.

And we'll see more touchdown passes during the next 6 weeks than we have all year as well. And 3rd down conversions.

The Cover 2 is another excuse, the Skins play a lot of cover 2 and most of the big plays against us have been when we were in that coverage. If we get some big plays, the myth is busted.

Re: Does Campbell end the 'Cover 2' excuse?

as was mentioned earlier. if he stinks it up, he wont have to worry about home fans booing him. he can get a game in before he comes back to fedex and worry about performing for the home team guys.
