Do You Want Jason Campbell Back in 2010?

[SmootSmack]

Simple yes or no.

No caveats. No "only as a backup" No "only get rid of him if we can get at least a 2nd rounder back" No "what are the cap implications"

None of that. Do you want Jason Campbell on the Redskins in 2010.

Yes or no?

I've come to the conclusion that my answer is no. I like Campbell and think he can be very good one day. But I want great, and I'm no longer convinced he can be.

[SmootSmack]

And of course I mean the 2010 season...before any of you respond with "I want him back for Jan. 3, 2010 and then not anymore"

I voted yes. I'll take good over "maybe great but probably not much better than JC". I just don't think there are a whole slew of better QBs in the league right now anyways. I don't see what the point of picking a guy like Clausen or Bradford is when history shows at least one of them won't be as good and the other may only be somewhat better. It isn't terribly likely that either is great.. Great QBs like Manning/Brady/Brees/Rivers come every few years out of what like 12-13 QBS taken in the first round? Not good odds. I just don't like the risk/time requirement needed isn't worth it when we have a guy that can be a winner. And I don't like that we can't really tell how good he is since he is constantly getting pounded.

I agree and I voted yes as well. There are only a small handful of "great" QBs on earth. We're sure not going to get anyone better than JC in FA, and no one we could draft will step in as a rookie and play better than JC.

I'd like to see what he can do with some system consistency when he's not getting beaten to a pulp every single game. I heard Larry Michael say that Jason was sitting in an ice tub with a black eye after the Giants game on MNF last week. And we all saw the shots he took against Dallas. He gets the sh*t kicked out of him every week, and he never complains, and always gets back up, sticks his chin out, and keeps fighting. Gotta love that. Give the man some protection and he'll be fine.

I've said this ad nauseum, but I do think we should draft a guy later in the draft like a Tony Pike or Dan Lefevour to develop as well.

[MTK]

Yes.

I think he's a guy you can win games with given good protection and a running game.

That said, whatever the decision is from the new regime, I'll live with it.

I agree, is there a bigger warrior in the league, he takes his beaten's and keep coming plus he did say for 2010, means we can sign him to a two year contract, with 2nd year option, and build from their, next year it's go be playoffs or bust for us.......

exactly, although i would say he is a guy you can win games with but not a guy that will win you games

[over the mountain]

no .....

[Chico23231]

After the first half of the year I was no. But seeing what free agents and possible QB vets play this year, its really no question JC is the best availible option next year. Draft a young guy and get rid of Collins and let him develop behind JC. Build the Oline before putting a rookie back there to get killed.

No only because Jason has had multiple chances to prove himself and has never done it. He's an avg qb and this team is rebuilding anyway. Plus he won't fit in shanahans offense, you need a quick release and quick feet he has neither

He & Cutler are the same build mobile, big arm if Jay can I have confidence JC can too. To answer the question YES!!!

[Redskins_P]

No. I think its time to move on and start from scratch. Plus, who knows if Campbell can be any better than he already is. I think he may have already hit his ceiling as a player and thats basically a middle of the pack QB. I think we can find that either thru the draft or free agency or trade.

I do respect Campbell alot and I hope he can succeed in this league. I just don't think it will happen here.

[irish]

No. I dont think the Skins should saddle themselves with more years of JC simply out of fear that who they draft wont be great. The potential reward with a new QB far outweighs sticking with an inadequate JC.

[KLHJ2]

Ditto to Matty and FRPLG.

He is a proven commodity that can win games if he has blocking and a running game. He is not the truth but he is no Joey Harrington either.

[FRPLG]

I'd just love to give him one season with decent pass protection and an adequate running game. At least we could know whether he can be a championship QB. I certainly have doubts but I have more confidence that he can be a winner than not.
