Hey, I'm totally okay with you saying we shouldn't extend Jason Campbell's contract just yet. There is nothing wrong with a wait and see approach here.

But your assessment of Campbell's weaknesses center around him being "slow." If you want to see slow, you have to watch guys like McNabb, Roethlisberger, JaMarcus Russell, or someone really young like Joe Flacco.

The truth is that Jason Campbell isn't slower than you would expect a player at his age and experience level to be. There is zero reason to believe he can't improve his WCO mechanics from year to year.

See, this is the kind of thing that you NEED the opinion of the experts on. No one cares whether Trent Dilfer thinks Mark Sanchez is going to be great. But an untrained eye can't tell if a QB is going through his progressions at the right speed. I don't see any overt problem here, so until someone comes out and suggests that it's just not happening fast enough, your position on this one continues to be in the "crackpot evidence" category.
