Here comes Jason Campbell!



Really good article in the Post today by Jason LaCanfora (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/06/14/AR2007061402312.html?hpid=sec-sports) that talks about the time and effort that Campbell has put in during this offseason. Also, how nice a guy he is off the field. How he seems to have gained the trust and confidence of his teammates and the faith of the fans.

I'm excited to watch this guy grow and mature. Based on his character, hard work, history, and ethics, he seems like he has the potential to have a bright future. There's no question he will go through his growing pains and have some tough moments but I think he has tremendous up side and Ilook forward to watching him play this year.

Good story. We'll see how he is on the field. I think he is a great prospect and unlike many of the 'Skins player, I like him.

I just hope fans are reasonable in their expectations for the guy.

Good article. The guy is a class act. I'm glad he's on my team and I wish him success. He's young and because of that, he'll make some mistakes, but as hard as he works, I don't doubt that he will succeed.

Seems like a class act all the way and, given the story, it's hard not to like him. I wish him well.

Just thought I'd throw this out there:

"Count Cooley among those impressed with the third-year quarterback.

'I've been impressed that he knows everything that's happening on the field," Cooley said. "He threw me a ball [during mini-camp] and afterwards he said, 'We have a little zone going on in there.' He just sees things that are unbelievable for such a young quarterback.

'[Campbell] does a great job spreading the ball around. He sees the whole field, sees everyone and gets everyone involved early. It's encouraging.'"
