Longbomb Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 People want to talk about Campbell haters...Todd Collins did more for this team this year than Campbell could have mustered. One more year of subpar performance from that young man and he's gone. The new coach is inheriting him and if it's not GW it will be very strained with JC on a short leash.

Hooper Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Todd Collins saved Joe Gibb's butt and let him go out on a high note. We should all be thankful for that and wish him well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isle-hawg Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Todd is gone, he will likely have best sucess to partner with AL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 of course it did take 13 years for an NFL team to get 4 wins out of Todd Collins hopefully when all is said and done Campbell will deliver more than that :laugh: just remember that at the same phase of development, 20 starts, Eli Manning was being called a potential bust, now he is in the Super Bowl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boss_Hogg Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Yeah he is done, he will not want to learn a whole new system at the age of 37. Watch Al Saunders go to another team and have great results, seams to always happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wheeler Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 i hope TC goes where Al goes so people on this board can stop acting like TC is the second coming of Sonny Jurgensenhey now , my favorite redskin qb of all time is sonny jurgensen . but i won't ever forget the 4 game winning streak at the end of last season . collins looked really good filling in , even if he doesn't rank in my top 10 favorite redskin qb's .:point2sky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Jay Schroeder looked better than Collins and for an entire season here in DC (1986), but in the end he was not the long-term answer. Collins is not even the short-term answer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fetus Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I think someone else will be wearing #15 in Washington next season. Just a hunch yes and he may be a Sweet Sweet SWEED WR! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thinker Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Of course that means we don't have a single viable backup qb at this point (assuming Brunell goes). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redman Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Collins? Hell no, he's not gone! He's our new head coach! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 well, the Patriots have Matt Cassel and the Giants have Jared Lorenzen right now, so I would not let that interrupt your sleep tonight backup quarterbacks can be found in the offseason.

Hooper Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I just don't get why so many people love to bash Collins. I want JC to start and kick butt too, but let's not forget what Collins did for this team. In my opinion, he saved Joe Gibbs legacy by letting him go out on a high note.

wheeler Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Can you honestly say with a straight face that you'd be proud to wear a Todd Collins burgundy and gold jersey?why not :whoknows: , i've worn a heath shuler jersey before, and he never had a 4 game winning streak . you get me a 3xlg todd collins jersey and i'll wear it proud (once in a while along with my other 30 redskin jerseys ).

redman Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 well, I didn't say they were GREAT backup quarterbacks :laugh: I actually think Lorenzen should be starting somewhere for someone, and Cassel too has gotten good reviews, but we have no way of knowing with him what that means.

SKINS FAN #56 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Why? He might be the last Skins QB to start a playoff game in the next 15 years the way the front office is going. I dont disagree with you at all :applause: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCalSkins Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Jay Schroeder looked better than Collins and for an entire season here in DC (1986), but in the end he was not the long-term answer. Collins is not even the short-term answer What are you talking about? Jay Schroeder was amazing as a Redskins QB. He took over a 5-5 team when Theisman got hurt and led us on a 5-1 run. He made the Pro Bowl the next year and took us to the NFC championship beating the defending SB champion bears in Chicago in the playoffs. Without Jay in 1987 we would not have made the playoffs. He started 10 games in the strike shortened year. T he next off season, we trade him for Jim Lachey. Schroeders starting record as a Skins QB was amongst the highest winning percentages ever for a Skins QB and we ended up getting a HOF level tackle for him.

method man Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Collins is a perfect fit for Zorn's WCO. Very intelligent, can get rid of the ball quickly, and weak-armed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins2010 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 When I saw people wearing his jersey I thought they had them made. I guess these would be on the $5.oo rack with Archuletta next year if he is gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
