He had less picks then in previous years, but i dont think anyone would call it a breakout year by any stretch. Bottom line is we were 28th in the league or so in scoring offense, and that falls mainly on the QB.

I wouldn't put it on Campbell's shoulders, it goes on the entire offense. I would mainly put it on adapting to new playcalling.

Ok, let me get educated.....JC played lights out for 8 games. Of couse something changed the second 8 games. but you can't deny he did well, managed well (other then some of his blitz reads and 2 min. drill). In a perfect world JC will play like he did the first half of the yr and having a better knowledge of the offense might allow him to focus on his reading the defenses and learning how to adjust to them as well as working on his 2 min. drill. I think it was obvious Zorn could not work on everything his first yr. Heck he was having to teach the coach's the offense.

i'm sure snyder would test free agency or the draft, as he did this year. JC is on a short leash.

an offense is typically only as good as its QB...typically.

Re: Holmgren on Campbell

Thanks Holmgren, you make a lot of sense, but Danny's just nodding pleasantly and offering you another drink. Unless JC has a spectacular year, he's gone; and it's my wager that he's still being shopped around, but this time on the double down low.

If i had to pick one factor (out of the many) that typically determines the success of an offense it would be the offensive line.

Hard to argue with that 30gut.

Actually, Jason had had a problem with fumbling/ints so yes for that it was a breakout year as Lotus said. You then harped on yards and TDs, which Lotus also said he was not including, but hopes for that part this year. Also, our whole offense stalled at the 50 to 20, and even Zorn acknowledged that that was an area HE was looking to improve his playcalling in. I don't see a redzone stat on pro football reference, but I think our numbers were not below average, we just didn't get there enough.

Haha. Kind of ironic how many of us tend to agree the OL is the central cog of an offense yet we're basically relying on everyone else to step up because the line didn't get much attention (again) this offseason. Maybe it's the sunshine but i'm optimistic about the situation. While i expect the right side of the line to really struggle again JC will still find a way to improve and our WR corp should be at the next level. Altogether we should be an offense capable of a winning season.

I think so. I expect us to be better on both sides of the ball. I'm looking forward to this year.
