Coach Gibbs was asked about the differences in Mark and Jason, he mentioned a few things.
1. Big guy with a big arm.
2. Mobile
3. Accurate with the deep ball.
Then I heard from BLloyd say that every pass play has a deep threat and Jason is very aggressive when it comes to his abilities and that is what he'll be looking for.
How many games will he win?

To be truthful, I don't care how many he wins/loses. Its not about winning games anymore, its about getting JC ready for his prosperous future with the Redskins. I don't think JC will look too sharp in the beginning, and I'm fine with that. I'd rather lose with a young and capable JC rather than Grandpa Brunell. If you are not aware already, JC WILL MOST LIKELY STRUGGLE so be ready for it. Don't go crazy if he throws 3 INTs in a game, because all he needs is a chance. If Brunell was given 9 games to prove he sucks, let JC do his thing for the remainder of the season. Let him struggle, let him learn, and let him become a true NFL QB. Hell, it'd be SWEET if JC was the next BRothlesberger (before the accidents) but then again, if he isn't WE SHOULD BE ALL FINE WITH THAT. Patience is key men, patience. If you can't tell already, I'm excited. I'm excited to see Campbell end our decade long QB problem. Hail! ~hatsOFF

I think Campbell might win 1 or 2 this year - I mean if Gibbs thinks he's good enough to select him then I think he can win 1 or 2 games this year.
I think the Redskins will win 5 and maybe 6 of the next 7.

I saw nearly every one of Jason's games at Auburn.
He was good enough to break your heart the first 3 years and as a Bama fan, we didn't fear him in the least. In fact, we knew he was good for a few ill timed and bad picks.
And then out of nowhere he was amazing the 4th year when Ronnie Brown and Cadillac Williams were running wild and the Tigers went 13-0.
We kept waiting for him to fail, but he was the best QB in the nation that year.
Drawing on that experience, I'm hopeful that a strong running game will develop due to his long ball threat, like the Tigers 13-0 season, which in turn will help us win field position and keep the D off the field. BUT he will throw a pick in every game this year.
My guess. 3 wins max.
My hope. 7-0.
I can't wait to find out!

2 wins. MAX. If he manages to throw as many TDs as does INTs this year, its a victory. Next year however, is the test. Every single redskin fan should look at this season as over. Wins? not the concern right now. Whether or not he can pick up this offense and be decent next year is. Remember the Man-Law: It's a rebuilding year.

3-4 wins, maybe. Otherwise, ditto.

Believe it or not, Redskins head coach Joe Gibbs isn't throwing in the towel by making the QB change. In fact, Campbell may give Washington a better chance to win than the past-his-prime Brunell. Consider that the two NFC wild card spots are very much up for grabs, with no single team standing out above the rest.
Currently, aside from the conference's four division leaders, there are eight teams considered to be in the playoff hunt: Philadelphia (5-4), Dallas (5-4), Atlanta (5-4), Carolina (5-4), Green Bay (4-5), Minnesota (4-5), San Francisco (4-5), St. Louis (4-5).
Out of the abovementioned eight wild card combatants, the Redskins have the opportunity to face four - Philadelphia, Atlanta, Carolina, St. Louis - in the final seven games. Washington's other three contests are matchups at Tampa (this week), at New Orleans (Week 15) and the team's season-ending showdown at the Meadowlands against the NFC East-leading Giants.
Clearly, when looking at the Redskins' final seven weeks, it's safe to say their schedule is far from easy. However, even with a lackluster .333 winning percentage, the ultra-disappointing Skins are still alive in the mediocre NFC. Without question, they can thank parity for that.
Now, back to the offense.
Through the first nine weeks of the season, the Redskins totaled just 165 points. Therefore, they're averaging just over 18 points per game. When Al Saunders was brought in to call the offensive plays, that lack of production is certainly not what Washington had in mind. However, given the offensive struggles, making the switch to Campbell could prove to be the best decision. After all, he can't do much worse than a meager 18 points per week. Unless you're the 2000 Baltimore Ravens , that's not going to get the job done.
Campbell's spent his first two pro seasons being schooled on the bench. Finally, it's his time to make a name for himself on the field. For the former 25th overall pick, the quest begins.

The 'season-ending showdown' is at home, not at the Meadowlands, which will come in handy should a miracle occur and we're still in the race for the playoff spot.

I agree that it's too soon to throw in the towel on this season. Especially when the NFC East is playing so poorly that 9-7 could win the division this year. We just have to win one game and go from there.
I'm happy JC's playing. I don't even care if he throws a bunch of interceptions--at least it will be exciting and not torture. But, to be honest, I think he's going to be VERY good and we'll see and immediate, vast improvement. Yes, other areas (defense especially) of the team need work, but nothing can lift spirits and rally a team together like a QB change when it's desperately needed. He'll make mistakes, but he's also a PLAYMAKER. And he immediately makes our other playmakers (Moss, Lloyd, Randel El) that much better. Heck, he'll even make the O-line better because he's much harder to sack and won't throw the ball away at the first sign of a pass rush.
That's why I picked 6 or 7 wins.

While he may not win any games for us (I predicted 1 or 2) maybe the offense and defense will win a bunch of games.
I do think that we are still "alive" and do not think that this change was made for any reason other than the fact that Gibbs must now feel that Campbell can handle the game better than Brunell.
I hope the team gets a lift out of all this and if we do in fact win all 7 with a little luck we would win the NFC East.
I predict that the NFC East winner will be at 9-7 or 10-6. Unfortunately I think it will also come down to us or the pukes.
The iggles have a terrible last 6 and will likely finish 8-8 or 7-9. the giants also will be at 8-8 and the pukes with us at 9-7 or maybe 10-6.
This parity in the NFL has brought a lot of the bottom teams into contention and anything is possible on Sunday.
I am still trying to understand how the Bears lost to Miami at home and the Colts only won by 1 over the Bills at home
- anything is possible.
