Per Vinny Cerrato, JC is our QB this season!

In reality:

1) Jay Cutler isn't getting traded (the reasons for this are economic in principle, not cap-wise, but like bargaining wise) even though the trade rumors will continue throughout the offseason.
2) Jay Cutler will likely have continued success in the Denver offense
3) Jason Campbell will continue to improve here, just as the offense around him does
4) We'll look back on this thread hilariously in a year, and realize that this debate was a waste of time. Unless the search function breaks, then we'll never see this again.
5) Zorn probably will stay through 2010 at least.

I have a feeling if Campbell succeeds here, i'll be eating alot of crow for a long long time. Then again, what happens if he succeeds here but we cant afford to keep him because the Cap doesnt go bye-bye? Do i still eat crow then too?

There are only four things that can happen with Campbell's game:

1) Campbell can not improve, in which case we go another direction (the reasons this is almost certain not to happen are numerous, but it requires an accurate understanding of the reason for the statistical decline in Campbell Weeks 10-17 last year)

2) Campbell does improve, but the team is oblivious to this for whatever reason (misses playoffs, etc), and goes another way for bad reasoning (I'm a lot more fearful of this than No. 1)

3) Campbell improves, and we extend or tag him. Basically, if he becomes our franchise QB, we keep him, regardless of the cost to us in 2010. (That cost, unfortunately, might be Rogers, worst case)

4) Campbell gets injured and misses 2009. In this case, all bets are off.

No idea if you'll hang around here long enough to eat crow, or whether I'll even care if you do. Seasons a long time away.
