Look who's eating crow?

Okay Okay I'm a man who dishes the crap but also give props where props is due. For the last year and a half I've been butchering the name of 1 named Jason Campbell. Countless threads shows me attacking this guys skill level and fire(especially after drafting my boy Colt). Well let me swallow my words now. Campbell posted 24 fro 36 321 yards and a score last week. You cheered I yelled fluke. This week 22 of 30 193 yards and 2 tds. So I'm a little scared to give him props in fear of him fading against a talented Dallas defense. He posts a good game this weekend and that should convince all the skeptics. Most important stat not one turnover..Thats huge in my book so I think its safe to say Campbell is good which is a huge step from my mediocre tag..Come on skeptics give the man his props if i could so can you.

Props to you for being honest. What I like is Zorn himself said it took Hasselbeck 4 years to get the WCO. While Jason still has a lot to learn, it's scary how good hes been through 3 weeks. Youre right this game will be his true test.

Re: Look who's eating crow?

I've never doubted JC but I was getting a bit worried about Week 1, not so much about his ability but the fans, Zorn, etc overreacting and benching him if he kept on playing like that.

I know its gonna take Zorn about 2-3 years to really perform well, and I pray to God Danny gives him that kinda time.

That can also goe the same for zorn..Nobody really gave him a shot. After game one i was scared as hell no I'm a little more at ease.

Good point. I kinda like the fact that Zorn was not just some re-tread coach. He brings innovation and something fresh to this team, not to mention he was a player himself. Could you imagine if Snyder hired Jim Fassel? Not so sure we would be looking this good, but that's just speculation.

You know who needs to eat some crow?

Sally F'ing Jenkins.

Where the hell has she been the last 2 weeks? Oh that's right the Skins won. Next loss she'll probably be back. Pathetic.

Re: Look who's eating crow?

After the Giants loss I said that I was off the Campbell bandwagon due to his inefficiencies at QB and the team's overall competitive level against an NFL opponent...


The past two weeks Campbell has turned it around and has reversed my expectations of what he and the offense were capable of. I commend the efforts of Zorn, who I approve of, and Campbell, who I formerly had no faith in, during the past two weeks.


The Skins have fielded competitive teams the past two weeks and not only competed in their games but won with Campbell at the helm.


...I formerly retract my announcement of being off of the Campbell bandwagon and would like to know if there is room available at the rear of said bandwagon for parties of one in the crow eating section.

Don't you guys think it's too early to jump on or off the JC bandwagon? It's way to early!

Re: Look who's eating crow?

Think about this too guys...wait until we get these rookies going- Thomas, Kelly and Davis. If these guys live up to thier billing, Campbell will have a pretty good arsenal. In the Saints game he hit 9 different recievers and in the Cards game he hit 8. Coupled with Zorn's unpredictable playcalling, we could hang with anyone.

I guess when I said that I meant that I wanted him benched for Collins but now that he is performing well enough to compete with other NFL teams I'd like to see him as the starter.

Even if he struggles I won't mind waiting and watching him come into his own in this offense because he has shown the promise of being able to run this offense well.

Yeah I thought that and dont get me wrong I'm still not sold but the whole idea is he's proven more these three games then i expected. He has put us in position to score and win. Last years JC wouldn't have done last weeks play change or check down that gave us the go ahead score. Two close games in a row that we won. Last years JC would've cost us at least one game with a pick or late fumble. He's maturing so raise up and show a little love.
