Can Jason Campbell bounce back?

[kapolani]

When the game has been on the line he has literally lost the game singlehandedly.

There are stats to prove that when he has been asked to throw the ball to win the game - he just can't do it.

The skins have put all their faith into this guy. Will he ever amount to anything?

I don't think he ever will. He just doesn't have it...

Isn't it funny that when they put in a guy that hasn't played much in years he instantly lights it up?

I think JC will be nothing more than a backup QB.

 

[skinfan2k]

Yes he will be. I am glad that gibbs conservative and lock down playcalling is gone. No more going jumbo from the 30 within and no more predictable run, run, pass.

I am hoping we are able to land a WR like Kelly or Sweed. Moss is overrated IMO because he plays outside of the heshes and gets injured too quickly. When he is able to play, he plays well and good. The fumbles didn't come in 06 when he had a good line.

I am not sure why we picked up Fabini. The guy blows.

I am assuming Zorn will open up the offense and suit the offense for the players, unlike AL saunders vaunted 700 billion pg playbook

Collins seemed to run that playbook pretty well - better than JC at least.

So it was the offense that held him back?

I don't understand that...

You guys put a guy in that hasn't played a down in years and he instantly gets things done.

Logically it doesn't make sense. You'd think that a guy that has been in the same system for a couple of years, a guy that supposedly has all the talent in the world, and he's a complete hack.

 

[DaBoys4Life]

JC sucks

 

[Rampage]

campbell will never be anything but an average qb at best

 

[SkinsHokieFan]

At this point who knows

New offense, new system. It could be Saunders was doing too much

What he has going for him? He is a hard worker, with lots of talent and will be in a similar system that he excelled in while at Auburn

And before you mention he had 2 great RB's, the one game I saw JC play LIVE, was the Sugar Bowl in January 2005 vs Virginia Tech

The VT defense was one of the top defenses in the country that year and shut down the 2 headed monster that Auburn had running the ball. JC had to make plays with his arm and single handidly won Auburn that game, against a ferocious pass rush and a very good secondary

So yea, he has the ability to do it, and has shown clutch performances in the past. He, like another young QB I won't mention, trailed off at the end of his first year starting

Again, its wait and see. If anything, his cap number is pretty low and he can be unloaded quite easily if he doesn't amount to much in the next 2 years

My bet is, he won't be 0 for 2 with game ending turnovers in his first 2 playoff games

my bet is the skins don't even make the playoffs next season.

 

[SkinsHokieFan]

My bet is you made the same bet last offseason

 

[theebs]

Campbell looks like a very good player to me.

I think if the skins struggle this year it wont be because of the play of the quarterback. I am wondering if they will lose that physical style of play and shortening the game which has allowed them to win some games late in the year.

I dont think campbell will be a problem at all.

 

[Bonecrusher#31]

My bet is you made the same bet last offseason

You won't be lead to playoffs if JC is the starter for 16 games

 

[Bonecrusher#31]

1.5 seasons as a starter....

1 turnover as a holder

1 turnover on a desperate last play heave into the endzone...

Hardly anything like throwing game ending INT's with with plenty of time left.....
JC is simply the worse QB in the NFC East hands down...`

0-2 in the playoffs

2 straight late season trail off's

Romo has the same problem Eli has had for a few years (until this year for Eli) The weather gets cold, so does his play

JC? Honestly I have no idea. And that is where the fun is for us Commanders fans, we know JC hasn't come near his ceiling yet, nor has he had the playoff game meltdowns

And at this rate, it wouldn't surprise me if JC wins his first playoff game before Mr. Romo does

Romo has been the starter for 1 year and a half a season. He has managed to take the team in both years to the playoffs. Lots of qbs lose in the playoffs. He only made two bad plays in this years playoff game. Not his fault his wr let him down.

Our qb has valuable experience and has been in a lot of unique situations, It is going to pay off in the future.

and if stats mean something to you, the skins have made the playoffs 3 times in 15 years, they havent won the division since 1999 and your qb has zero playoff experience and has never even started a full season.

Dallas has made the playoffs 3 of the past 5 years and have had winning seasons in 4 of the last 5. This is indicative of a team on the edge of breaking through.

Not saying that will happen and I am not saying Campbell is not good, I have already said I like him, he was terrific here at texas stadium. Just saying pointing out romo has not won a playoff game is short sighted and ignorant.

 

[StanleySpadowski]

I'm confused by the statement "bounce back". Bounce back to what?????

That implies that there was some modicum of success that was lost. That was never the case.


Campbell's problem is simple. He has all the physical tools but he's dumber than a truckload of hammers. He doesn't process information quick enough for the NFL level.

Is there any of the other 31 franchises that Campbell would be the no questions asked starter of? Maybe Miami and that about it. Does he beat out Rogers in Green Bay, doubtful, Edwards in Buffalo, possible? Whom else?

Quality QB play is the end all, be all in the NFL and Washington will suck as long as he's the starter so I hope he has a 25 year career.

All good stats, although that 2003 Cowboys team was not a harbringer of things to come in Dallas. Look at your roster then and now

Point being, I am about to finish up my masters degree in a few weeks. The last time the Cowboys won a playoff game, I was in 9th grade

A big reason for that is Mr. Romo

We'll see how JC does this year. Essentially he is on a 2 year audition. I suspect if it isn't going to work out, Zorn will know pretty quickly. If he can't handle the offense, it will be evident sooner then later

Luckily there isn't a lot of money invested in him so the team can let him move on at that point then plot the next move

Right now though, I think I don't need to worry about the fact that I threw away my receipt on JC

Well your wrong on many levels, but that is ok. I am not in the mood to argue. I see that fans of other teams are just going to use the ignorant talking point of romo hasnt won a playoff game and that is fine. i assume espn will do that all summer to.

I mean they and most fans had Peyton, Eli, John Elway etc all figured out.

 

[Hoofbite]

I think Campbell could develop into a quality player but hes just in a bad place. With all the turnover in DC, he will never EVER have a chance to settle into a system and develop of relationship with the coaches to the point where they all understand his abilities and come up with the best gameplan for HIM.

As a result, I think he will show flashes and falter, show flashes and falter. Eventually, the skins will look somewhere else and it wouldn't shock me one bit to see Campbell play 2nd fiddle somewhere an take over as a starter after learning and growing within a system.

As is.....hes screwed.
