What is going on with Campbell?

[Catfish]

I have heard other members of the board hint at this question from time to time, but I have not heard what, (if anything), has been responsible for the almost complete disappearance of Callais Campbell thus far this entire season. I made it a point to follow him with greater regularity during the N.O. game, and was dismayed to see that he was almost totally ineffective in getting any push whatsoever against the Saint's O'line. I saw both DD and Ta'amu working their butts off to try and force penetration, but Campbell nearly always remained at the line of scrimmage, (sometimes not even in contact with one of the O-linemen), save for the initial push at the snap. Often he simply backed away from the block to hang around and watch what was happening. I was stunned.

Has anyone heard if he is playing hurt, (not just in pain, but really hurt)?

Is there something else that is keeping him from being effective as a part of our D-line, like the scheme keeping him as a watch-dog or something like that? I don't believe that to be the case, as not only Brees, but their RB's had their way with us on Sunday. If he was the spy, he was totally ineffective. If anyone here knows anything about this, could you please give the rest of us some insight into this? He is far too important a piece of our defense to be nearly totally missing from it for three games now.

I mentioned this in another thread. Was so happy we got him signed and now he has disappeared. If he is hurt they are keeping it quiet. He hasn't even been average. Not a factor at all.

Figures, the Cardinals do the right thing and sign emerging talent, and then the talent falls off the map.

Campbell has been very average for the amount of money he is making.

Ill give him time. Maybe it is the new scheme? Maybe he is condenced? (weak, I know)

Hes been a fav since he was a rookie. Heres to hoping he dominates soon.

Hell, we have 10 pages about dockett and he got 3 sacks sunday

Him and DD combined.

And we still got our butts whooped and the 3 had just about 0 impact on the overall game.

5-11 with or without

I'd go with the new scheme. The one that was supposed to free up Dockett and Campbell to wreck havoc on opposing offenses. So far it looks like the wrong recipe for those two.
