collinsworth is a hater. we really don't know if he can play or not.

Going back to Brunell at this point makes no sense at all. Especially once the team is officially eliminated.

Re: Collinsworth on Redskins QB situation
 

Who the hell cares about what Collinsworth has to say? His source is a big name? Pfffft!!! Chris may have had a dream about being a decent journalist and this scenario was still fresh in his mind when he woke up. He can't distinguish the difference between factual credibility and opinionated conjecture.

I'm not a fan of his, by the by.

Regardless, he was just passing along what someone told him.

Dink and dunks? No thank you. Even WHEN Brunell was in the midst of a winning streak, I didn't respect him a huge amount. We rode Portis's back into the playoffs last year and he made plays when he had to. It would be nice to be able to have a passing game to compliment the running game.

ANd you have to remember that as far as stats are concerned Brunell gets credit for all the yards that Santana/Cooley tore it up after catching a short screen.

Re: Collinsworth on Redskins QB situation
 

I checked my crackpot sources. And this is not something new. I didn't hear the show, I'll listen to the archived version later, but he apparently didn't specify enough on air.

But anyway, someone (don't know who) told Collinsworth back in the preseason that they needed the Brunell from early 2005 because Campbell wasn't ready yet. And there had never really been any intention to go with Collins long term except for in an absolute emergency. Anyhow, long story short-it's not new.

I had a feeling that this was something he was told back in camp or something. Just didn't make much sense that someone in the organization would say that right now.

That's true, but you can say that about a lot of people in the league. You do still have to factor in YAC.

Re: Collinsworth on Redskins QB situation
 

I try to listen the all the BS in the league I can get. It's not like I have any connections or anything. That particular item seems like total bs as I have not heard one peson in or out of the Skins org say anything negative about JC. With all the haters around the world, you woud think something like that would have surfaced before now.
However, I don't like hearing that

Re: Collinsworth on Redskins QB situation
 

I doubt Collingsworth is lying or confused about what he was told if in fact that is what he said? But Gibbs has been delusional towards Brunell, which just goes to show how out of touch he really is with his ability to evaluate talent that is playing every sunday right in front of his face, the possibility exsists that Campbell may be a complete bust, I really can't imagine him being worse than Brunell? But if so what does that say about gibbs ability to identify talent? You would think the one area that he would be on the money is the QB position? Regardless if Campbell can play or not this is addition by subtraction, we already know we can't win with Brunell, and this last half of the season will go far in telling where we stand QB wise for the future, it would be nice to see Campbell excel but I wouldn't get my hopes to high.
