Bottom line is Campbell gives the Redskins a better chance to win games now than Collins and also has a tremendous upside. He is our QB for at least the next two years barring serious injury.

And what is not being understood is that Collins ability to read a defense and find the open man is why the running game opened up, defenses could no longer stack the box, as well as his ability to maintain drives helped keep our defense off the field, so they were fresh when they were on the field.
Campbell has a lot to prove, because he has proven nothing up till now. Tremendous upside? Athletically, yes, mentally? I haven't seen a hint of that upside, QB is all about the smarts, the NFL is full of athletically gifted dummy's at QB.
