Or is that for real ? This poll is obviously being skewed by the haters- Also where is this mythical better replacement gonna come from? There are only 15 QBs in the league that were better then JC last year, and i don't think one of them is gonna magically land in our laps sometimes this site is just.....:doh: http://blog.redskins.com/2009/05/15/meeting-the-coaches-chris-meidt/#continued Once we get to the point where people can come to training camp or watch preseason games, what should they look for in the quarterback to measure any improvement since last year? Meidt: "I think he's gonna get the ball out quicker. I think he'll have better decision-making, but I also think we'll have better, more precise routes. I think our protection'll be better. I just think as a football team we'll be better. "I think it's hard for someone who's not just right in the middle of it to judge, because all they can judge on is the result. And football's just such a process-driven game, such a team game. It's easy to look at the quarterback and think, ball's complete, he did great, ball's incomplete, he stunk. But that's just not how it is." http://blog.redskins.com/2009/05/15/meeting-the-coaches-chris-meidt/#continued Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkinsTribeVA Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 Good poll. Like some others, I can't bring myself to name just one reason, but I think I can narrow it down to three: -Added O-lone depth/youth (I think the additional depth/competition is more important than any of the new guys necessarily winning starting jobs) -Campbell's improvement/offense's familiarity with Zorn's system (exact same thing in my eyes) -Emergence of D.Thomas (or Kelly, I don't care which but at this point I'm really liking Devin, his attitude, and his chances of breaking out) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually when a Mod does it, it's some wild number in the hundreds, and I tried logging out and voting and that didn't work, so my guess is all the "Colt Lovers" just now woke up.

I just logged out and voted for Devin Thomas and it worked for me. So take one away from him. Edit: I voted for Kelly the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taylorcoreskin Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 "Benching of Campbell due to performance and addition of better replacement" Nice to see that's the leading choice among voters. You'd think people would have gotten a clue after the insertion of Todd Collins into the starting lineup resulted in a complete 180 for our offense...

Like I said above. these polls are easily skewed. I really dont think there are that many who feel that there is a better replacement for Campbell on the team right now.

eljeasel Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 Overall offensive players getting more familiar and acclimated to Zorn's system After hearing even the lineman explain how they were kind of confused with the new system Im hoping its going to be everyone from DT learning how to run routes, MK getting himself healthy, FD making himself another weapon in the arsenal, the line getting it, Campbell taking another step, Zorn figuring out what works etc etc Now Its kind of a cop out answer, but I dont think its going to happen any other way if it happens at all.

Coach Williams Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 Umm...this team collapsed offensively gradually as injuries piled up......how come I am the only one to choose injuries..... we were doing great until week 9....remember 6-2 everyone? Campbell wasn't the issue, nor the receivers, portis, defense etc....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usapatriot Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 JC's play is going to be the key for the team this year. He has to step up and live up to his potential. He determines how far the team goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illone Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 I think coaching and offensive line play will be improved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryGreenMonk Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 IF we do better... which I doubt because not a lot has changed for the offense from last year. We'll have Dockery back and Thomas will be back from injuries and healthier... but if we do better it has to be because Campbell has improved greatly. but other than that.. defenses will only have to watch film from last season to know how to mess with us... which is blitz Campbell a lot.
