Jason Campbell needs to step up or sit down for the Washington Redskins

Blogged under Needs to Step Up, Bloglockers, Front Page, General Redskins Talk by admin on Friday 23 October 2009 at 6:01 pm

The Redskins have given 27-year old Jason Campbell five years to prove himself and he seems to be the same QB he was when he first started.  He has started all six games for the Redskins this season and he has completed 107 of 163 passes (65.6%) for 1,197 yards with 6 TD passes and 6 INTs (84.3 QB Rating).  He has also carried the ball 20 times for 95 yards (4.8 ypc) this year.  But Campbell was benched last Sunday against the Chiefs and he will likely be on a very short leash going forward.  37-year old Todd Collins replaced Campbell last week and he didn’t look too good completing 6 of 14 passes (42.9%) for 75 yards with 0 TDs and 0 INTs (60.1 QB Rating).  Collins would just be a stopgap if he were inserted in the starting lineup for the Redskins who will likely be looking for a new QB next season.  Collins has played in 45 games in his NFL career and he has completed 375 of 665 passes (56.4%) for 4,410 yards with 22 TD passes and 19 INTs (75.6 QB Rating).  He has also carried the ball 83 times for 152 yards (1.8 ypc) in his career.
