redeemed skin

I don't know if I'm ready to believe that. For the most part, it looked like the same offense under Brunell, only with a taller QB.

Like you said, Campbell didn't light it up, but he certainly made a few key plays.

Now, I'm excited about the kid delivering a win as well, but if you were to change the number on the jersey, it wouldn't look too different of an output, IMO. (right down to the restlessness in the stands, and the calls for Joe to retire, streaming down from the "experts" in the Upper Level)


Can't say I entirely agree with your assessment. The results may look similar right now, but there's one huge difference here: In Campbell, we're looking at a young, athletic QB learning his way with a potentially huge upside. In Brunell, we're looking at a wornout, beaten-up, old QB at the end of his career. I like Brunell, but it's not going to get better. He's had 2 years and it's the same old, same old.

Agreed, for the most part. However, I will say this: it was annoying to hear calls for Gibbs' head when the kid was throwing errant passes left and right during the game. All I could think was "that's what you wanted, so deal with it."

Definitely, JC has the more upside of the two.
Back and better than ever!
