Lots of questions from their fan bases and front offices as to whether or not they were the guy. Very public pursuits of other QB to replace them. Both made a statement, 'This is my team and I am going to lead them as such.' Brees had a huge breakout season with 27 TD the following season.
I am not comparing Campbell to Brees in saying that he's going to drop 27 TD like Brees did, but pointing out the short sightedness of giving up on young QB who have shown some ability to play at this level with some success.

IMO Brees is the best QB in the game today...I really hope JC rises to his level of play.
