QB Controversy: Campbell or Randle-El
Before anyone gets too excited, this is clearly a joke on my part to lightly address the numerous times I had to listen to the game announcers tell us that Antwaan Randle-El has a perfect QB rating. This of course follows Randle-El’s touchdown pass to Chris Cooley today.
So, yes, let’s all acknowledge Randle-El’s prowess for throwing a TD on the trick play. But really, do we need to hear about his QB rating.
I think not.
Jason Campbell didn’t have a high QB rating today. But, he continued to make the plays to keep the Redskins in the win column. More importantly, he didn’t have any turnovers, even though there were very good opportunities for the Eagles to get a couple of interceptions from balls bouncing off of the receiver’s hands, including Cooley’s. In fact, by my count, Randle-El had three dropped passes, alone.
The Eagles did a wonderful job taking Santana Moss out of the game. Again, by my count, he had two balls thrown his way. The first went incomplete after a hard hit. And the second was caught, yet nullified by a penalty by Devin Thomas. So, it was as if the Eagles dared us to beat them in some other manner. Well…
How’d we do, Philly?
Hail to the Redskins!
