Jason Campbell haters: here's one more thing...

I re-read my previous post and figured that it lacked statistical proof to again prove JC-haters wrong so I looked up the numbers and here we go:

JC, as of Monday, September 21, 2009, is currently 7th in the NFL in completion percentage at 68.9%. That tops Matt Ryan, Eli, Carson Palmer, Tom Brady, Philip Rivers, Jay Cutler and, of course, Tony Romo. He's thrown 1 INT in 61 attempts and if I'm honest, I'm thinking Santana could have at least batted it down had he not completely given up on it before Webster jumped in front during the NY game. Moving on...

JC has thrown for 453 yards- that's good for 14th in the league. He's averaging 7.43 yards per attempt- that's good for 12th. Last but not least, he's bumping a 89.0 QB rating which begs me to ask: Why in the hell are you trying to get rid of him?

He has a top-notch completion rate. He's consistently at the bottom of the league in INTs thrown and he proved on NUMEROUS occasions this season his ability to tuck the football and run for the first down. He's getting it to the open man when protected and he's protecting the football- that's what a defensive team needs. Give the man a consistent running game and Washington will be playing into late January. Just ask Flacco and the 2008 Ravens.

  1. ok sam I agree JC can sometimes have good looking plays, however, he never takes any chances amd when he does (the 2nd half of last season) he blows it. We beat the pathetic St. Louis Rams 9-7. Your telling me your not concerned?

  3. Big plays Foster. The offensive has been anemic thus far because defenses load up the box and dare Campbell to beat them. He proceeds by completing 80 percent of 3 yard screen passes with the occasional bomb 10 feet over a streaking Santana Moss' head. He looks uncomfortable in the pocket, doesn't go through his progressions and is afraid to take chances. That's why his numbers are so misleading. It's easy to accumulate gaudy stats when you dink and dunk, but it doesn't result in wins. You need to be able to challenge the defense vertically, not only to generate big plays, but to create more room for Portis.

    Cutler may be a premadona, but not trading for him was one of the worst decisions that the Redskins could make. Campbell has set this franchise back 3 years and counting.

    And Charlie, Shaun Hill is the second coming of Broadway Joe.
