There's No Quarterback Controversy

they do drop alot of balls(very correct there). all im saying with the playoffs picture looking dark why not take a look at what we have on the bench and not just at QB...in alot of positions

only 2 teams are getting in from our divison...another loss of 2 and we are done. i would just like to see what Colt Brennan, Rob Jackson,Kelly,Devin Thomas and Fred Davis in place of yoder can do......Horton shocked us all,its worth a look.

We can still lose one more game and be fine. At 10-6 we can win the NFC wildcard, with a few stars aligned right. Just look at last season.

Last season we barely made the playoffs and lost in the first round. So yes, it would be JUST like last season.

after losing a head coach and 2 "associate" head coaches, and giving the job to a guy who had never been a coordinator, I'd still call that a step in the right direction. Especially with implementing a new offensive system.

Charlie, give me a break. You seriously want the coach to quit on the season before we are even eliminated from the playoffs?

I'm hard on Jason but believe he deserves the ENTIRE rest of this season as our starting QB.

He also gets at least half of next season as the starter.

HOWEVER, we need to pick up a veteran WCO QB this off-season. Collins must go. There should be a healthy QB competition in the PS.

JC is a good QB, but he's got to move higher in the next year. Of course, some other offensive players have a lot more issues [like dropped passes, pass blocking, etc] to resolve if this team is going to score more points.

By this time next year we must know whether Jason is our future long-term franchise QB. He's got to prove he's not the one. The QB is simply the most important position on the team. An elite QB can take you to the playoffs at least a few times in a five year period.

Colt may get his chance but this is Jason's time to rise up or not.

Wow JLC seems to have calmed down back to usual on-spot analysis. Good stuff.

We can definitely win with Campbell. We just need a better team around him. Colt Brennan would not be anywhere near 7 wins right now. I don't know how long you've been watching football (in particular the redskins) but guys like Ryan and Flacco are coming into teams (falcons surprisingly) with excellent ground games and good defenses. Neither are winning their division either, and both have very similar records to the redskins...

If Marino was our Qb , we would be scoring 27 pts per game . We have a great ground game and the # 3 defense . WR's and JC are not getting it done at the moment

How is JC supposed to get it done without a WR core? Yell at them to get open down feild? Force them to catch the ball? The WRs are the ones that are making JC look worse than he really is.

While we are at it, why don't we rest ALL of our starters? That's not how football teams are run. If fans ran the Redskins, they'd run it straight into the ground.
