A Playoff question: Campbell or Collins?

And the best part is that Campbell is ok with that decision, he's not the type to sit around and pout.


how do you know that?

No apology necessary but I think that JC's had enough time to have an effective gameplan called. There has been a huge disparity between the games called with TC instead of JC under center. I am sure it's warranted to some extent but I really question whether or not it could have been a lot closer. Eh, I'm ambivalent I guess. As long as the team wearing burgundy and gold wins, I really don't care either way. But I do wonder if it will shake his confidence if JC is healthy and sits

JC is a team guy and a class act, I can't see him putting up a stink over this or it ruining his confidence in any way.

Read this from JLC especially the question: On if he's still looking to return for the playoffs (if they make it):

It's not like the offense was totally inept under JC.

I think the big difference between the two QBs right now is Collins' knowledge of the offense gives him a ton of confidence and there's no hesitation when he decides to throw the ball. And Collins isn't making that critical mistake that a young QB like Campbell tends to make.

I know in public he'd be fine with it, but it would have to destroy his confidence to be healthy and have the team not trust him in the big games. He's a competitor.

see, I interpret that differently :

The hardest part is sitting back watching all this. We're having a lot of fun right now as a team, we're winning, and you feel like you're an outsider looking in, watching.


If he's having trouble watching now, can you imagine what he'll feel if he's healthy and is forced to watch....


Im probably jumping the gun, realistically, though... I don't think he's going to be healthy enough to return unless we go to the super bowl.

Destroy his confidence?

Doubt that.

It's not like he was benched due to performance. He got hurt, his backup comes in and plays great and helps guide the team to the playoffs. I'm sure he would be frustrated over not playing but at the same time I'm sure he would understand the rationale. Saying his confidence would be destroyed is stretching things a bit in my opinion.

You forgot this part:

"The only thing I've got to do is just take it day-to-day and just see what happens, see how we can improve it and right now we're winning so that's the key."

i can't see campbell playing anymore this season at all.when i was 14 or 15,i broke the same bone in my knee cap he did and it took me almost a full year to recover.back in those days,i played basketball everyday and ran a mile every other day too.i know that medical technology has advanced since way the hell back then,but you still have to heal!!!!
