Note to Zorn - Unleash Jason Campbell

Look, I will admit right off the bat that I am not a Jason Campbell fan. I don't think we will ever be a Super Bowl contender with Jason Campbell under center. That having been said, I am asking, no begging Jim Zorn to unleash Jason Campbell this weekend.

The one thing we do know about Jason Campbell is that the kid has a cannon for an arm. For the love of God, Coach Zorn, let Campbell do what he can do best - throw the damn deep ball. We have speedsters like Santana Moss and big targets like Malcolm Kelly and Marko Mitchell. Take the cuffs off Campbell and let him sling it.

I know that Washington football has always been about the running game, but the fact is that Clinton Portis isn't the type of back who can carry a team on his own.

Put Campbell in the shotgun, go with an empty backfield, throw on first down, and pin the Rams early.

The only thing Coach Zorn has to lose is his job - and if he doesn't turn it around fast he will.

The root of the problem is that Campbell/Zorn is a bad fit. That goes back to Vinny and his hiring of Zorn. Zorn's West Coast offense might work for Hasselback but Campbell excels at long deep passes helped by a running game, the classic Joe Gibbs offense. Campbell is terrible with short passes.

I don't blame Campbell or Zorn, but blame the GM who thought that they could mesh.
