QB answer could be Campkowski
By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Wednesday, October 13th, 2010 at 8:57 am in Oakland Raiders.
I floated the question fully expecting Tom Cable to shoot it down as if he were hiding in a duck blind.
Given that the Raiders had won both of their games this season after a change in quarterbacks, and that the skills of both players are different _ Jason Campbell is more of a methodical game manager, Bruce Gradkowski better in two-minute situations and chaos _ would he be quick to make changes in the future and use both players?
The standard answer is no. Of course not. A team needs a single starting quarterback because of continuity, consistency, leadership, etc.
Instead, Cable, while conceding it was not ideal, invoked Raider history. George Blanda coming off the bench for Daryle Lamonica, and not always because of injury. He ended by saying “I think it’s just a good problem to have two quality players.”
Here is why I think you could be seeing both quarterbacks throughout the rest of the season:
– Gradkowski is the starter for now and has a propensity for injury. Some of it is playing style, taking on defenders, some of it is bad luck. Given the double blow Shaun Phillips put on his injured right shoulder Sunday, a chop to the shoulder pad followed by throwing him to the ground on the shoulder _ he may not be able to go this week against the 49ers.
Attrition is inevitable. Five games into the season the whole Darren McFadden-Michael Bush lead ballcarrier question hasn’t been addressed because one or the other has been hurt.
– There is no evidence that either quarterback is “the guy,” Al Davis’ declaration of Campbell as the next Jim Plunkett notwithstanding. Neither is the guy in a financial sense. Gradkowski is on a one-year tender, Campbell had his contract extended a single year through 2011, presumably non-guaranteed.
I could be wrong, but I don’t see Gradkowski ever being a 60 percent passer. He’s energetic, a worker and he possesses a spark. He gives the offense confidence it can score and is at his best when all is falling apart around him. And that’s a good trait to have for a Raiders quarterback. A great guy to have on a team, not necessarily your longterm solution.
Campbell is a safety-first, measured quarterback who has a knack of engineering long drives because he avoids risky throws and plays. Not sure where the Plunkett comparison came from, because it’s not his nature to be the kind of daring deep thrower Plunkett was. Davis has espoused his offensive beliefs in the past as “we don’t take what the defense gives us, we take what we want.”
Following the Chargers game, Campbell said he got in a groove by taking what the defense gave him and letting the game come to him. He’s been labeled as a cautious quarterback for six years now and it’s hard to see him morph into a risk-taker at this point.
– Fans, of course, want one or the other _ and Gradkowski has already built up the underdog’s following. You can expect dozens of comments below in support of both quarterbacks, with each side putting forth a passionate and sometimes angry argument.
However, there truly seems to be no factions in the locker room, and while Gradkowski and Campbell may not be pals, they work together, say all the right things in public, and realize the situation is beyond their control as to who plays and how much.
“Halfway through the St. Louis game, we put Bruce in, took Jason out, won the game,” tackle Khalif Barnes said. “Bruce got hurt this time, Jason stepped in. They’re real professional about what they do. When you’ve got that within a team you can win. They’re different emotionally _ Bruce is a little more animated. But they’re both leaders in how they approach and take over games. They both control the huddle.”
– If you’re Cable and Hue Jackson, and you’re in a situation that calls for some ball control and first downs, and you think Campbell is better suited for the task, do you stick with Gradkowski? What happens if you’re trailing by six entering halftime or regulation? Gradkowski could be like a shot of adrenaline.
In short, if neither quarterback is what you need to win by himself, then there’s something to be said for being bold enough to use both.

DHB needs a big-armed QB who is fearless and likes to go downfield, and you’d see him more of a factor. Campbell is too conservative, and Gradkowski hasnt the arm. Both are good tho, helping us create yardage and first downs. Despite many patchy moments, Hue Jackson is doing a great job. More than that actually. This seasons offense productivity is very good considering the handicaps we have on offense.
October 13th, 2010 at 9:03 am

I can’t help it. I really, really want the Raiders to go hard after Andrew Luck. I almost wouldn’t mind seeing Nnamdi traded in that instance, so long as it brought back a decent enough starting-caliber player along with the high first-rounder.
Sure, the Raiders have had problems developing QBs. But a team simply can’t win consistently by picking up journeymen.
Although a situation to keep an eye on is Matt Flynn in GB. He might get the start this weekend.
This, of course, is all dependent on the Raiders also bringing in better offensive linemen.

October 13th, 2010 at 9:06 am
We have no legitimate starting QB in a QB driven league and we are scoring points. It’s really smoke and mirrors. I hope the scoring continues against a very good 49er defense.
October 13th, 2010 at 9:07 am
Maybe we see Campbell get injured this time, and Boller comes off the bench and brings us the win.
Then we’ll have a 3-way QB rotational system!
Imo, Raiders will finally win a back-to-back game this week, and so perhaps that scenario is how that occurs, like how both our 2 wins have come.
October 13th, 2010 at 9:08 am

That’s about as bad as Kobe going 4-800 or whatever it was and winning Finals MVP.

October 13th, 2010 at 9:11 am
Bring in Jared Gaither on the cheap in the offseason. I think his contract will be up. He’s at the very least RT material, given the players currently on the Raider depth chart.
Start working Campbell in place of Carlisle, keep Loper, bring in another G via the draft or free agency.
Take the best C or LT in the second round, followed by the other in the third round.
Raiders should also be on the prowl or FS, NT, and WLB, but the priority has to be the offensive line in the offseason. They can win with this young defense, but not with this offensive line.

This is true, I think. Way to put pressure on a kid who already has enough trouble trying to perform on the field. Let him come along slowly and surprise some people (if he’s going to, that is), instead of looking like a fool and declaring a premature victory.

Seriously, who votes for these player of the week awards? Do they just watch Berman’s fastest two minutes and make a call?
What on God’s green earth did Huff do well the first 56 minutes of the game?
That play was huge, awesome and everything the fans, team and Huffy24/7 needed, but I’m sure someone else out of the other 300+ defensive starters actually played well for 60 minutes.

JFB,
Mike Huff single handedly beat the Chargers. a team the Raiders haven’t defeated since 3 years before he was drafted!
if that doesn’t at least deserve AFC defensive player of the week, then I don’t know what does.
the only guys complaining about this are Huff haters. you guys keep talking. I love to read rubbish from bitter fans after thier team WON
the media/league isn’t buying what you guys are selling. better luck getting #24 benched, traded or cut next time!
you guys that cheer or run to the blog every time he misses a tackle, takes a bad angle or is late in coverage are pretty close to worthless as “fans”.
October 13th, 2010 at 9:23 am
Gradkowski/Campbell rotaiton? Not happening.
October 13th, 2010 at 9:24 am
Sup fellas, you rang? I feel the love this morning.
Huff was brutal in that game, still no o-line, and our secondary….yuck.
So far my mvp is hujack, what he has done with duct tape, and toothpicks would make maccyver take notes.
I would love to see hujack get promoted to our head coach at the end of the year.
We know, Davis he wants to score hu jack is getting it done. i love the 3-4 wide looks, macfadden and ush look much better coming down hill, even out of the spread.
I think old man Al his hit the jack pot.

I agree, but we can only be so creative with 3 and 4 WR sets because the lackluster play of the O Line will limit our opportunities to actually use them.

As far as breaking down the 4 blog personalities….
Armond- I like the cat, die-hard Raider, Warrior and Cal Bear fan. Top candidate for who you want to drink some beer and burn with. Loses some steam due to the Jamarcus debate, and I really wish he would mix in an occasional comma or period.
JHill- Spent hours defending Jamarcus Russell, while still telling us he wasn’t defending Jamarcus Russell. I think I can blame him for the gray hairs in my beard. Solid non-football posts however.
RRS- Good early AM poster, helps the blog pick up momentum every morning. Loses big points thinking Huff and AI are stars, and has a tad too much Podunk in some of his posts.
AIG- A little long-winded at times, but scores points with his penchant for film review. Lots of Blog points hinging on Bruce Gradkowski that are still in limbo. And he is an Asian salesmen, from Memphis, that benches 350 pounds. That just sounds weird.
October 13th, 2010 at 9:30 am
I dont think the qb answer is in the draft this year, I think luck is really over rated. He is talented, however the oregon game showed alot of flaws.
He under throws the deep ball, he locks on to receivers, and he has a slow delivery at times.
My favorite is a guy off the radar, Baylor qb Robert Griffin III. This kid is touchdown machine. Dual threat, but a great passer. Only 6-2 220lb sophomore. Stick with our 3 guys for the next 2 years, then draft this kid.
RG3 + hujack….my wish list.

fatty:
the Bills are on a bye
CJ Spiller won’t lose this week!
0-5 records remains intact
October 13th, 2010 at 9:34 am
Here’s what’s going to happen:
Gradkowski will make big strides this week in practice, but still won’t be 100%. Cable tells him to sit a week and the job is still his regardless of what happens.
He said there will be no controversey and despite Cable’s shortcomings, I’ll take him at his word on this one.
As long as Grad is healthy, he’s the starter.
If Campbell goes out and smashed SF with 300+ and some huge TDs, then things change a bit.
But you heard what Campbell said, he won’t let people change him. He’ll make a few key completions, but in general will manage the game and try to avoid mistakes.
I think that will be enough to get it done against SF, but down the road we will need to get our WRs involved and take chances and that’s Bruce’s strength.
Despite the middle of the road PC talk from the players, I think Bruce won the team over last year and he should play the year out.
If Campbell gets Ws then by all means, give him the job.

truth!
any play caller that could squeeze points out of this offense considering the guys we have at QB, WR & OL deserves a gold star

I agree with this. Whether you’re for Grads, JC, or indifferent. Fact is, with that O-line, the young WRs, and our QBs, to be getting this kind of production is outstanding. Good job, Huey!

Pryor because of Tressel’s offense does not run pro sets. He will be a project at best.

I think Pryor will be better than Vince Young and a top 20 pick.
I also think Jake Locker is going to play baseball, and skip the NFL altogether. He bypassed last years NFL draft, but signed his 300K signing bonus with the Angels (absurb money for a baseball 10th round pick).

With our offensive line don’t we really already concede to a two QB situation??? When’s the last time we had a QB go injury free for a whole season. Until our Oline improves and a franchise type QB could last the whole season I actually prefer two good QB’s to one elite and one Sorgi type since the elite guy would never make it the whole season.

Pryor does not throw the ball well enough. He can toss it deep, but he struggles with the intermediate and short game. his throwing motion is horrific. he is nothing like jamarcus. jamarcus could make all of the throws, pryor cant. he is more like a poor mans vince young, young is a much better passer coming out of college than pryor.I think he is over hyped.
Griffin, reads defenses, looks off dbs, moves defense with eyes and pump fakes. He is not done growing, he is only a sophomore. He can throw it a mile, or put touch on the ball, and can hit every part of the field. Bonus, he runs like the wind, he would fit perfectly with hu jacks offense.

David Garrard will be available next year, i think he would be good in silver and black. He started slowly this year, but he is a very good qb on a very bad team. never has any weapons besides mojo. He never had a good o-line in front of him.
Before anyone that rarely has seen him jumps all over me, check out his career stat line.
1247 out of 2031 61.4% comp % (this number goes up with a decent receiving core) 14058 yds 6.9 75td 45 int
Also he is very good when the play breaks down, improv skills are unreal out side of the pocket, and stands tall in the pocket and reads defenses, making accurate throws.
October 13th, 2010 at 10:31 am
Ok so I’ll amend my list of QBs I’d like to see with the Raiders (with the addition of a good offensive line and a veteran wide receiver to help him out, obviously):
Andrew Luck
Jacory Harris
Christian Ponder
Matt Flynn
Tyler Thigpen
Dennis Dixon (although as I said, his injury history is concerning)
Chris Redman
October 13th, 2010 at 10:31 am
Al should be banned by the NFL AND the NFLPA from drafting another QB ever again. Until he hires a GM and an actual personnel dept. he needs to just work with vet QB castoffs.
Don’t even think ruining more young guys football careers here. I (Nation?) don’t have the patience.

1. Find one post where I said JC sucked for last Sunday’s game. You can’t and I dare you to find it.
2. I have said over and over again JC did ok. But I want to puke at the kudos you guys are giving him. Based on your celebrations, it sounds like JC lit up the Chargers. If it wasnt for Loper rolling on the ground, one of those 2 drives would never happen.
3. I dont think one qualifies as pom pom supporter when one can admit that Bruce sucked last week.
I take pride in being no homer. When JC carries the O on his back, I will be the first in here to giving him his dues.

October 13th, 2010 at 10:35 am
jacory harris has natural skill, and make every throw.
He is too careless with his decision making, too many interceptions. He reminds me of AAron Brooks, although Brooks as a much better runner, and was a better decision maker.
October 13th, 2010 at 10:36 am
Garrard wouldn’t be bad. Can he throw the deep ball?
Thigpen I am not so sure about. I can’t say I watch a lot games other than my beloved RAIDERS and some MNF or playoffs. And of course the local WolfPack.
Since Jags and Chiefs/Fins haven’t been on national TV in quite some time I can’t say I seen much of either.
I was torn about Rapelisburger in the offseason. Rapists are pretty damn low on my list of scum but he seems to have “seen” the light, realized he was becoming a $hitbag and decided to rejoin the human race. So if the Steelers want to part ways with Ben I’d be okay with that.

You could say that about most of the positions on this team. What are the Raiders supposed to do, give up?
Listen, I want Al to get a real GM and legitimate scouts and an actual coach as much as anyone else. But in the meantime, all they can do is try to assemble the best players they can find.

Jones drew is pretty good, but he is too fat and cant stay in the game for more than 3-4 plays at a time without a break. But he is a dangerous weapon.
Lewis is very inconsistent, he drops alot of passes, however he has good upside.
Sims walker is good and has emerged, i think this is the best guy out wide garrard has had since mccardel and smith.
I think the longer these two play together the better they could be, but i dont see the jags bringing garrard back.
They dont realize how good they have it, and he has taken the fall for del rio and weaver.
October 13th, 2010 at 10:43 am
Maybe you guy’s saw a different game than I saw and I was there Michael Huff had the best game I’ve seen him play in his career. He didn’t make any mistakes he tackle well he helped with Gates and blitzed several times. He played the run better than any time I cna remember it’s all on film so maybe some of you should watch a little closer. That sack strip just took the cake.
I said before the game that Huff plays well vs SD and I gave him one more game to show he should still be starting well he shut me up bigtime. I give him a ton of credit for helping us win that game. I’m not sure what yu guy’s are talking about.
It seems once you have an opinion about a player no matter what they do they suck. lol

They are angry because I refuse to get into the hype. When he put our O on his back, I will get into the hype.
October 13th, 2010 at 10:46 am
Why are we talking abotu all of these QB projects when we can just start JC and see what he is all about. He was just getting comfortable with our offense. He should be the starter with Grads backing him up. What you see is what you get with Grads and he will be hurt every year half of season. He trys to make to many physical plays aginst the D and gets blasted.
October 13th, 2010 at 10:47 am
After getting torched for over 400 yds last week no one on that secondary should be getting any awards, several times during that game you saw Huff shoulder and arm tackling Again! what turned this game around was campbell recognizing pressure quicker getting rid of the ball much sooner and thus creating positives and moving the Ball, something does have to be done about protecting his blindside, this has been a problem every game this year, and if it doesn’t get fixed we will soon be talking about 2 Qb’s being injured and Boller starting.

JC and Bruce have plenty of time to show what they have.
Best case scenario? JC comes around and a rookie QB can sit on the bench for a while.
My only stipulation with the Raiders bringing in a QB through the draft would be that the rest of the picks have to be offensive linemen.
October 13th, 2010 at 10:51 am
I would love to see a qb drafted, but not this year. i dont think this is a good qb draft at all.
I like having a solid vet and schooling a rookie qb for a year or so. We already have solid vets at qb, i know they may nto be spactacular, but im ok with that.
2011-2012 get Robert Griffin, and let campbell and grads show him the ropes. This is one fo the areas we failed in with jamarcuss. I dont know why we didnt keep culpeper if for no other reason to have a veteran prescence that could teach a little about life as an nfl qb…pep has been through it all. From high draft pick to super star pent house, to the out house. no.2 could have learned a lot from him. Then again the question is did no.2 even want to learn anything at all.

I think jc has a couple of things going on that cause him to hesitate a,little more than he should.
He is still learning this offense, which means he has to unlearn all 10 of his previous offenses.He said during camp that he would call plays but was using foreskin terminology. This will fade over time ( i hope he sticks around at least 2-3 years). it takes time to know not only your reads, but getting used to the way your guys run routes, and knowing everyone’s assignment.
When he missed DHb deep, im not sure he knew where Dhb was going to be. This rythm chemistry timing and trust takes time.
The idea that campbell wont go deep, is false. This is one of the best things he does. You didnt see very much in washington, because his main down the fields weapon was santana moss. decent player but he doesnt have that deep speed the way he used to. Gibbs offense went deep, zorn is a dink and dunk wc offense.

I was listening to a Brian Billick interview last night and he said something I definitely agree with. And that’s drafting QB’s he said, when it comes to darfting QB remember one thing “Nobody knows anything” and that is as true a statement as any I’ve heard.
I have watched QB after QB get drafted in the 1st rnd by every team in the league and they have all drafted BUST some more times than others. He also said if you look at the strengths of the great QB’s they are all very different Joe Montana is very different form Marino and Aikman. THe one thing they all seem to have is they are very competitive but that is very true of all the bad ones as well.
My point is as soon as you think you know what you’re doing at that position is when you’re in trouble. It’s waayyy too unpredictable. Because of the different systems and levels of play you just cannot read it accurately. Now IMO Andrew Luck is hands down the best and safest pick in this draft regardless of position but say he goes to a bad team and a bad system. Well that is a horse of a different color.
Over the years I’ve guessed right about a lot of QB’s but I’ll tell ya’ there many that I thought had no shot and they were better than the guy’s I had way ahead of them for a myriad of reasons. It’s the hardest position in sports to get right. Bar none.

Sad but not shocking at all. This is disgusting.
jacory harris is not “on my radar” he is turn over prone. i think qbs that turn the ball over alot will always do that, and can not change.
But the black qb white qb thing makes me want to puke!
I hate the niners always have…but Montana was the greatest qb i have ever seen! A white guy!
This post that you put up validates my claim that sport fans are not ready to embrace a Black qb! Dont look now but we are “the hot thing” right now, and its about ef’n time!
i have watched sme of the greatest college qb’s forced to go play in Canada or switch positions just to get on an nfl roster. Finally 1999 happened, and since that time more and more teams are seeing the light, but the fans are as racist as ever.
Dont get me wrong, teams take the qb they think they can win with, and most teams now will bite the bullet and take a black man to sell tickets, ( not because they feel like they want be socially conscience), but our time is here.
Marinovich, wilson, geoerge, shroeder, they wer white and they sucked!!! so should we discount all white qb’s.
By the way most of the nfl is black! So you want us to block catch and run, but you dont want us to coach or lead from the qb spot! Absolute garbage!
Take your big belt buckle wearing, confederate flag waving, monster truck driving a$$, back to the 1800’s Cave man, this is a new day, and you are obsolete!

If anyone accuses you of being racist, you say you meant the term in it’s literal sense, not implying race.

i have a meeting in 15 minutes.
……………
LOL. Please. Do you expect anyone here to think you could possibly be employed in the capacity in which you would ever be required to attend a meeting? You’re either living in ma n pa’s barn, or you’re working at Wendys.

Im pretty sure this is a dangerous game for us… The niners are 0-5 but there not as bad as there record shows… This will not be an easy game and this team needs to come out fired up and take it away quickly

RRS — If you insist, I’ll track it down after lunch. You could just say, “oh well, I thought I was being funny,” and leave it at that. Although it isn’t/wasn’t funny…
I’d just as soon not even have these discussions on this RAIDERS FOOTBALL blog.
It’s a GREAT time to be a Raiders fan! Isn’t it?!
October 13th, 2010 at 11:53 am

when you elevate your self to the status of a man, and leave the slave mentality behind you wont have to ask such ridiculous questions.

Yaaawwwnnnnnn !!!!
I remember BHP and Bauce going down this road, lol.
Point taken Mistic!
Just said it for effect so you could get a clearer picture instead of your belt buckle picture you had in your head.
Moving on now …
==========================================================
Ok fair enough, you had me flash’n for a minute. Im back its good.
October 13th, 2010 at 12:39 pm
Vick, Garrad, McNabb, Russell, Camplunkett, Pryor
===============================================
Vick would be my choice out of that group. The rest suck! Out of 32 NFL QB’s, most suck. There are White QB’s that suck and Black QB’s that suck. As Jack Webb would have said, “That’s the facts Ma’am.”
Al Davis when he made Art Shell the first Black HC was also the first one to fire a Black HC. That him a proponent of racial equality. Hire and fire equally. No discrimination.

The Raiders should sign Merriman. I agree he isnt the same without the juice but he would have something to prove agaisnt the Ferry Ego Chargers. That’s worth signing him by itself. He would have a serious ax to grind for those two division games.
