I know he is a pre madonna and all. I still like the guy. I mean forty year old playing the way he is? Gotta give the guy some credit.

I was wondering would you take him to start over Campbell?

Right now...nope.

Carlos Rogers needs to be on the same bus out of town as Campbell. In fact, I would argue that he cost the Redskins more wins over his time here than Campbell or any other player. So many times he could have stopped scoring drives or changed momentum if he would just have caught the INT between his numbers. UGH to CR22.

Haynesworth

Sorry... I'm not feeling it.

'Po 3.5 sacks
'Dre 6.5 sacks
AH 3 sacks

that's 13... Big Al had a hand in most of them... either by penetrating himself, or by soaking up blockers leaving Carter or Orakpo 1 on 1.

London Fletcher is leading the league in tackles (71)... again, AH soaking up blockers, and keeping them off of Fletch.

There aren't many bright spots... and this is one of them.

Yeah... not feeling it.

I agree, the DL is one of the last issues this team needs to worry about.

I'm more worried about not using the defense right. Playing gap control with Haynesworth is crap. We aren't blitzing and we should be.

Fine... I don't even disagree with that, but what has that got to do with the quality of Haynesworth's play? When in, he is still lights out. Your answer does not respond to my point, which is anyone who is "irked" by Haynesworth is not paying attention.

Third and eight and the guy calls an audible to AN OFF TACKLE RUNNING PLAY????? How many four-yard dump-offs in that situation? How many hopeless scrambles? How many times has he tucked it away when you just KNOW he didn't get past his first read? If you're an NFL QB and you don't think your arm has been touched by God himself, YOU ARE DONE MAN!!!! SONNY JURGENSON SAID IT, AND IT'S TRUE!

The man has no fire and no desire to win. What's up with this guy? When was the last time we saw Campbell get mad, like a real player, like Moss or Portis? Jump up and down like ey? We get NOTHING!

Thank you! Every time I hear someone in the announcing booth whine about Zorn not letting Campbell audible, I think about that play. That was an absolutely STUPID call... one that only a non-football mind would conceive in that situation.

I've commented often about Campbell's lack of fire. Even Campbell has tacitly acknowledged it, when he made his ludicrous "dragon" comments.

I'm thinking he's got some little gummy dragon that he keeps in his pocket.

For me... no one can match the 'Irksomeness" of Jason Campbell. He is the very definition of the word. The dude is very talented. He has the arm and the legs to carry the team, yet he has not one clue about what to do with it, and shows no indication of matching his potential. Can you imagine what players with true football intelligence, like Brett Favre, Warren Moon, or Ron Jaworski (men who had much talent, but largely subsisted on the force of their wills and their knowledge of the game) would have become if they possessed the physical tools of Jason Campbell? Scary. Imagine Brett Favre with Campbells size, strength, speed, and arm?????? Give Jason Campbell 1/2 of Favre's fire and field vision, and this is a very different ending.

I'm a big fan of Big Al.... don't ya'll be hatin on him. So far he is earning some of his pay.....(and it a bunch of money so.....he needs to keep his motor running)
