Filled with such gems as:
One element Campbell does have going for him, beyond his impressive physical skills-set, is that he was handpicked by Gibbs to, at some point down the road, stop the team's quarterback carousel. That gives him a meaningful edge over Patrick Ramsey, the last first-round quarterback taken by Washington before Campbell, in 2002.
Also giving him an edge - being on the Redskins roster, something Ramsey is not.

And who can forget:
As for when Campbell gets there, well, it's still anyone's guess. The suspicion in Washington is that if Brunell were injured during a game, Collins, who has averaged just 3.4 pass attempts over the last eight seasons, would take over and finish the contest. If the injury sidelined Brunell for a game or two, the staff would prepare Campbell to be the starter.
Really? Before even the first day of training camp, the depth chart has that many nuances?

This is a stone thrown into a placid lake. Lenny's trying to make waves against a team he has shown tremendous animus towards. What a jackass.

he's just reaching at straws here. Straws with which he plans to suck down about 50 milkshakes tonight.

He's basically just saying that Campbell hasn't actually shown anything in a regular season game yet and he has nothing meaningful to add to the Skins situation.

Lenny P isn't alone. That's exactly what the Sirius NFL radio guys said. They felt Collins could probably manage the game for them better since he understands the offense and is a veteran. But if it's going to be more than two games, it's time to start the future (their words.)

That article also sucks because it makes it seem like Campbell is pissed that he's not starting now. I strongly doubt that is the case.

His time will come soon enough.

coach gibbs will not put a rookie into the fire, especially since the skins have a chance to do very well this year. history repeats itself and coach likes his veterans

wtf? Something tells me the tone of the article doesn't match the tone of those interviewed.

The mention of Ramsey and the loyalty issue seems rather irrelevant to the article in my opinion. As for whether Collins or Campbell would come in for Brunell should he get hurt during a game, I can see Collins finishing up a game. But let's see how far along Campbell is by the end of the preseason.

Well obviously Collins would fill in Brunell now, let's wait til Campbell has at least gone through training camp in this system before we jump to any conclusions.
