More Motivation For Jason Campbell

As if his own team’s dalliance with former Denver Broncos quarterback Jay Cutler wasn’t enough to light a fire under the fanny of Redskins quarterback Jason Campbell, Peter King of SI.com has another twist that might give Campbell extra fuel for the coming conflagration. Broncos coach Josh McDaniels studied the film, and decided that he preferred Kyle Orton to Campbell. “McDaniels thinks he can win with Orton,” King writes. Um, in what league? AFL2.5? Then again, we don’t doubt McDaniels’ confidence. His former team won with a sixth-rounder (Tom Brady) and a seventh-rounder (Matt Cassel). So why not give it a whirl with Orton, who was a third fourth-rounder? Meanwhile, the Broncos can pick a late-round guy and quietly develop him into the next Brady or Cassel. If, that is, McDaniels took photos of the Belichick/Pioli 2009 draft board.
