coldpacker Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 I just noticed this watching the vids on redskins.com.. Anyone else notice this? He's not winding up anymore for his throws. His release is noticabley quicker to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TenandSix:Unacceptable Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 I thought it looked a little faster myself. Wishful thinking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldpacker Posted July 20, 2008 Author Share Posted July 20, 2008 I dont' think its wishful thinking.. I might have to logon to nfl.com and compare. he's very light footed now too....... wow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRobi21 Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 To me as well! It looks like Zorn's teaching is already showing results it Campbell! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teller Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 His release probably is quicker. I noticed in the first pics murf posted from minicamp that Zorn has him holding the ball up higher -- at his shoulder instead of at his midsection. That'll definitely speed things up a little bit. That was only half the problem though. He's going to have to bring his short/intermediate passes DOWN if this offense is going to work. I think he can, and I think he will. But we need to be looking at that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikachu Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 I thought I was the only one that noticed that. I guess Zorn is really teaching him some good things. Looking really positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuadsaif123 Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 thats good 2 hear...hopefully this will amp up his acc. in the short-intermediate game im thinking this is the First of many good things Coach Z is gonna teach JC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flycoach Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 I dont' think its wishful thinking.. I might have to logon to nfl.com and compare. he's very light footed now too....... wow! Zorn said right after he was hired as HC that he was going to be going over JC's mechanics. Sounds like he's done some fine tuning... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pvkeeper19 Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 When it comes to improving a QB's mechanics, I think Zorn is the right man for the job. I think Jason's in good hands. Improved QB play is the one thing I feel like we can really count on this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IbleedBnG83 Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Great observations. That actually one of the first things I wanted to look for going into training camp. I think that is much more important than many people emphasize. Should help with his fumbles as well as completing passes in this system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IbleedBnG83 Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Jason Campbell's arms are looking a bit bigger too. He's been hitting the weights it would seem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fnkdctr(007) Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Jason also appears to have __________ and ____________. Those other teams don't stand a chance. I can't wait to see if these observations can be seen when I'm scouting video tonight, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terpskins10 Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Yep it's called good coaching. Something a lot of the JC haters seem to want to forget about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should help with his fumbles as well as completing passes in this system.I am very happy about thisIt should have a big affect on our offense overall If TD/INT ratio increases....we will see a franchise emerge Cool Did I say how happy about this I am? :applause: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapitalDefense Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 If this is indeed the case the results will come on gameday, not practice. The video I saw was he threw a pass to Devin and it was very low, but Devin came up with it. Coach Zorn said he would have gotten an offensive pass interference on the play, so the ball must have been thrown terribly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach Zorn said he would have gotten an offensive pass interference on the play, so the ball must have been thrown terribly. That ball would have been at Santana or ARE's midsection, though, if we're being honest. They're not the tallest fellows. :laugh: I sure hope JC is able to adjust his throws depending on the height of his receiver, seeing as he's actually got guys taller than 6'0" now. A between-the-numbers throw to Malcolm more than likely hits Santana between the eyes...and he's got a rocket for an arm, so I hope he doesn't kill anyone out there.

Mackdaddydean Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 I didn't notice a night and day difference, but maybe a tad bit faster. I will say this though. On the first pass of the video, he looks like Brunell with his happy feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the first pass of the video, he looks like Brunell with his happy feet. I think Zorn wants him shuffling his feet more so he stays moving and mobile while in the pocket. I for one was never against Brunell's happy feet. He moved very well in the pocket even in his older age. Zorn did say Jason still looked uncomfortable or not natural in what he wanted him doing. That will take time. I'm sure come opening day, Campbell will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morneblade Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 he's got Jason bending his knees more as well. That should help with bringing hte ball down abit, as well as putting him in a better position to avoid a rush, and to hang on to the ball if he does get hit. The jury is out on Zorn as a HC but Zorn as a QB coach is a known commodity. He's a very good one and I think JC is going to be a very, very good QB in a couple years.

flexxskins Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 I'm going to go and check it out now. I hope that he is comfortable with the change and that it does'nt affect his accuracy. :fingersx: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
