Grade Jason Campbell

From what i saw of Campbell today i'm really looking forward to seeing more of him. He was smart, made good decisions, pretty much did it by himself and the receivers because we had no running game, no defense, nothing to help him out, Moss and Portis were out, and he did enough to win the game if we didn't have a shitty defense.

he had poise, a strong arm, didnt make many bad decisions.

for his first game, great job. i look forward to seeing him progress

For his 1st ever NFL action that was an A hands down. With an actual NFL caliber defense backing him up he would have gotten his 1st win today.

I don't know the numbers but didn't it seem like the Bucs had posession of the ball about 40 minutes of the 60? AWWWWWWWWWWFUL defense!

I gave JC an A, because he didn't throw a single pick -- much more than I expected.

I'd give him a B+ and here's why:

#1 He threw for 19/34 for 196 yards and 2 TDs (with Lloyd dropping a 55+ yard bomb).
#2 He didn't make any big mistakes - no INTs and no fumbles.
#3 He evaded pressure pretty well.
#4 He spread out the ball and was willing to throw deep.
#5 He had no running game.
#6 The defense couldn't get him back onto the field.
#7 He was without Moss AND Portis.
#8 It was his first start.
#9 He looked poised in the pocket.
#10 For the first time this season, I was actually looking forward to seeing the offense hit the field.

I agree with everything you said,if brunell would have started this game i wouldnt have bothered watching it,B+

I gave him a B, and now that I think about it I probably should have given him a B+/A-. For not having a running game what so ever, and pretty much no defense to back him up, he did great. He put the ball downfield, a couple were short, but that will come with more reps. He had good zip on the ball, good movement in the pocket, and I think he completed passes to seven different receivers. All good things. I think that if we had done a better job run blocking, and if the defense had showed up a little we definitely would have won today. I can't call what is wrong with the defense, it just doesn't make sense. The talent is there, they just don't get it done. Good Job JC!!

A. Srew it, he deserves an A. At least he threw down field.

I also think Jason is going to be the kind of QB where we're never out of a game. With his arm strength and acuracy, if we're down on the scoreboard, he has the ingredients to bring a team back. I never felt that way with Brunell.

I gave him a B. He looked really poised in the pocket and made some nice throws. Main thing....he converted some critical 3rd downs for us. If that first pass he threw was thrown to Moss instead B.Lloyd, that would've been a td easily...

Who gave Campbell a C and who gave him a D?
