Good for Campbell
 

Glad to see him doing well and getting a fresh start. I'll go out on a limb and say he will have be a very good year and take the Raiders to the playoffs.

Re: Good for Campbell
 

I hope so. I wasn't a big fan of his performance while he was here, but he was clearly a class act. Wish him nothing but the best.

Re: Good for Campbell
 

Glad to see this, I wish nothing but success to Campbell.

Re: Good for Campbell
 

I get his frustration but he didn't prove himself as franchise material.. then again not many do

It makes a difference when the team ownership wants you as a QB. Maybe that confidence that he never had here in DC will get him over the hump.

But, water under the bridge, I hope he succeeds. (And I hope this doesn't turn into a Campbell bitchfest, Lord knows we've had enough of those)

I'll go out on a limb and say your completely off your rocker. not only will the Raiders not break .333, but Campbell will stink it up and Oakland fans will blame the 15 systems he's had to learn in the past 16 years or some other such nonsense. news flash: Campbell is not a starting-caliber NFL qb.

Re: Good for Campbell
 

JaMarcus must have been really, really bad for Asomugha to say that. And Gradkowski must have not been too great either.

Yup, talk shit about the guy even though he's not in a Redskins uniform. So much for this not turning into a bitchfest. :doh:

This is the least insightful post i've read in a long time. There's no reason to believe JC can't have success in the NFL. He played in one of the toughest football markets (especially for a QB) w/ easily one of the worst o-lines year after year. Very, very few QBs would have been successful in his position.

Oakland gives him a fresh start. He'll improve over last year a little above his historical trend line, which means he'll have a very solid season. And...he's still one of the highest character guys in the game.

...nonetheless our current QB is a super high character guy and knows how to win. McNabb is a franchise talent. Let's all hope he's got a few great years left.

Re: Good for Campbell
 

I'm defintley pulling for JC this year... I think the Raiders are going to be a lot better this season. I don't see them making the playoffs, but I think they'll be competitive and relevant.

Re: Good for Campbell
 

I am so confident JC will rock this year I am drafting him number one in my fantasy league...well maybe not. =)

Re: Good for Campbell
 

Very happy for JC! He's simply is not a west coast read theole field type of QB. If Hue Jackson designs the right offense for JC, meaning have him read half the field, have a strong running game and have a lot of play action stuff then he'll be fine. JC is a starter in this league. I think Oak. will have a good running game but at this point they just don't have any wr's that are going to help him.

A sense of stability may ultimately be his greatest benefactor. No resemblance of that here.

Re: Good for Campbell
 

The Raiders will be a tough out this year, I could see them rising up to .500 or so.
