It was momentum, coupled with the possibility that the team as a whole thought they had the game in the bag. Campbell was cool under duress, and did the best he could (as a 2nd year QB) to win the game. To me, this loss was a lesson he (and this year's team) had to learn. No one is unbeatable in today's NFL. No one. I'm lookin g forward to watching the season play out and seeing Campbell develop into an even better QB than he naturally is. PS: they actually only had 3 downs to get into the end zone, not 4. And while we're at it - how 'bout those Jets! Cheers. Hey David,

Four chances to get a touchdown and they get stopped each time. I always thought Jason Campbell would blossom into an excellent pro quarterback. I don't know if he would flourish under a different system or not, but things aren't looking too bright so far. Perhaps he needs more offensive weapons. Perhaps he needs to be under different leadership and a different offensive scheme. Unfortunately, it looks like another year of out of tune music in the capital city.
