Jamarcus Russell or Jason Campbell?

Two super SEC stars look so lost in the NFL.

JR's problem is that he plays for a team with WRs that can't catch the ball.

Russel. Campbell has had some good games. Not many. But JR...that dude is already dreaming of Margarita Ville.

I wonder if Campbell is regarded as the best that ever suited up on the AU boards?

Fixed.

Although, I don't deny that his receivers suck balls too.

Campbell has been "bust-ing" longer (since '04) than JaMarcus (since '06) so my vote goes to Campbell.

By far JR. He'll be out of football in a few years. And broke in 10 years.

JRs problem is that he is 50 pounds overweight and has no Head or QB coach to kick his arse and attitude into shape.

It would take a total commitment makeover for this immensely talented athlete to do anything but fade sadly away.

Is the passion there? Many millions of dollars says bleh!

Russell is one of the worst players of all time.

Jason Campbell has no excuse for being a bad quarterback. With players like Santana Moss, Devin Thomas, Fred Davis, Antwaan Randle El, Chris Cooley, Clinton Portis, and Malcolm Kelly? No excuse with weapons like that on offense.

Jamarcus. I think he's missed the NFL bus.

JR has had 1 bad half season.

Last season thru 15 games, 13td/8int isnt that bad for practically being a rookie.

Lets see any QB thrive on a team with 2 rookie WR's and Johnnie Lee Higgins. not one of these 3 would be a #3WR for any of the top10 NFL teams.


Look at Matt Cassel, 3700yds 22tds in his 1st yr starting with the Pats. Now at KC, hes struggling big time. 2 less than 100yds passing games. Thats with a 6yr/63mil contract.

A lot of poor QB play can be stemmed back to the team.

JRussell is very bad. Campbell was at least looking to prove me wrong his first couple of seasons. Now he's showing me i was right for laughing at Wash for drafting this guy in the first round. he had 1 good season and goes in the first round. Don't really think Russell pulls himself out of this gutter he's in. As coo-coo as Al Davis is, he may just cut him in a couple of years.
