It's hard to not get excited about the season after reading this:
A difference of 'night and day' - Sports - The Washington Times, America's Newspaper (http://www.washtimes.com/sports/20070511-123948-5675r.htm)
Saunders: "Every time I look over my shoulder, Jason's here," said Saunders, who worked with Campbell three hours a day, three days a week leading up to the players' first days back on the field this week. "He's making progress. He's a wonderful kid to work with. He's extremely bright and has worked extremely hard on his techniques and fundamentals [with] a lot of film work, a lot of board work and a lot of understanding of what we are doing from a schematic standpoint."
Campbell: "In the offseason, you try to put in a lot of work to help put yourself in position to be successful," Campbell said. "You're able to go through more of your progressions than you probably did a year ago because of the time and effort that you put in studying the plays. Coach Saunders and [quarterbacks coach Bill Lazor] have done a great job of teaching me all the plays."
"It's getting back there and trying to set up a lot quicker and getting the ball out of my hand a lot quicker," Campbell said. "[And] knowing where you're going with the ball more, shortening my motion. The coaches are trying to make things easier for me so I can have the opportunity to go through my progressions without being in a rush."
Gibbs: "I don't know if anyone has worked harder than Jason," Gibbs said. "He's paid a price this offseason. There are a lot of places he could have been running around, but he's been here working on football. It's made a difference. He's quicker. He's much more confident."
Rabach: "From last year's OTAs to this year, it's night and day with Jason," center Casey Rabach said.
Moss: "We're light years ahead of where we were last year with Jason," Moss said. "You have to understand last year when he came in and started throwing to [the regulars] late in the season we had had no reps with him. We didn't have the timing we wanted and we were trying to force him to do things that any quarterback would struggle doing. What Jason has done is make a lot of progress to where we want to go."
