Campbell is in a similar situation Daunte Culpepper was in before the 2000 season.

In 1999, the Vikings made the playoffs with veteran Jeff George after drafting Culpepper in the 1st round in the '99 Draft.

The Vikings had superior offensive talent, with Robert Smith at RB and Cris Carter and Randy Moss at WR.

They let George go in FA(err *doh*) and gave Culpepper the job.

Culpepper had a great year and helped get the Vikings back to the playoffs.

I have a feeling Campbell could do the same. I don't see him leading us to a Super Bowl, although first year starters in their second year coming off the bench have done it before(*cough* Tom Brady)but I think he can be at least solid if not spectacular.

Dont expect a superbowl unless we seriously upgrade our O-Line depth, get Cowart or other good MLB, 2 good Safeties, and Dyson or other quality CB. Dont expect it though, JG seems to care nothing about the O-Line since he seems content with substandard play in the last 2 years. Rabach is good but Raymer stinks(thank god he wont be back). Thomas is very good. Dockery is developing but still may be 2 years from good. Molinari is a failed project. Samuels is very good and Jansen is great. Do you want the line in the hands of Jim Jones, Ndukwe, Alston, Molinaro, etc. (a bunch of PS and BS players with little experience or talent) if anyone goes down? We may be headed for that.

I don't think so, because I honestly think Brunell is going to keep the starting job, barring injury. If Brunell goes down (god forbid) I can see JC stepping onto the field and keeping the team going strong...but from a statistics standpoint I don't see anything too mindblowing.

I was under the impression that we had 2 good safeties in Taylor and Archuleta...

man i hope i think he has the talent. In we won a super bowl next year tho does that mean gibbs retires? I dont want him to retire yet (again)

Everything about JC is great. I think he was one of the best QB in that 2005 draft.

Two Negatives about Jason Campbell though...

Small Hands-Alex Smith has small hands...look at him. Then again, so does Daunte Culpepper.

Was surrounded by alot amount of talent on offense at Auburn. Marcus Mcniel, Cadillac Williams, Ronnie Brown, Ben Obamanu, Anothny Mix, and Devin Aromoshado. Then again, he is surrounded by alot of talent here in Washington too.

At the end of last season, before Thomas went down, I would have to say that the Skins had one heck of an O-Line. I understand your point about depth, but I do believe the Skins are bringing in a guy who can back up both the center and guard positions. I don't think Gibbs is content with substandard play, but I also think guys need experience and experience together. The entire O-Line from last year will be back. Dockery has 18 games and another offseason under his belt. I think our safety tandem is one of the best in the league right now. And Prioleau played pretty well last year when given the opportunity. I agree that the LB and CB positions are a question mark, but remember who the Skins have coaching that D...I would say they are in a pretty good spot right now.

Good point. McNabb sat the bench his first year too.

I'm not sure what team you have been following................ Taylor in his second year has been a force in the secondary, and should just be hitting his full stride commin into his third season. The addition of Arch brings a quality seasoned vet into the mix to work with Taylor giving an extremely solid tandem at safety.

Marshall did a real good job at mike last season, so unless we can come up with a major upgrade there, I don't see him moving back to the week side full time. I think we'll see a lot of rotation at linebacker, where you may see Marshall move to week side on some plays, and another player going to mike. Remember, we stock piled linebackers last season, and have a bunch of younger guys we know little about as fans that the staff have worked with for some time now.

Dockery should be a beast this year, and Rabach is one of the better centers in the NFC. Sure we need depth on the line, but you make it sound like we're going to lose most of the starters all at once. Two seasons in a row, the O line has lost key players which did hurt us, and the depth will be addressed no doubt. If you think Gibbs has blown off the play of the line, your saddly mistaken. I couldn't pass the jusgment till the season starts and I see what we have for a roster.

We do need depth at corner, but the level of play will be higher then last season with Rogers starting his second season.

We have found the starters we needed with the exception of week side, which we may already have on the roster. We can fill the ranks for solid depth in the draft and off the waiver wire easily. I don't think we need to search for "name brand" back ups, but servicable younger guys that have potential.

Can someone please explain to me why people think Campbell needs to sit for one or two years?

That's the way Gibbs likes to do things to a great extent. Why rush it if you have a solid starter. If he was ready, he would play. Gibbs is famous for grooming his QB's, so I'll trust him on this one.
