Quarterbacks:
Jason Campbell #2, Chicago Bears – Jason is #2 on the depth chart with the Bears and did not play in Monday night’s win over the Cowboys.

The game came down to the last minute and Cam had what looked like a first down on 3rd and short that would have let the Panthers run the clock out, but fumbled. The Panthers recovered, but it was short of the first down. The Panthers then punted and downed the ball at the one, but Matt Ryan threw a prayer on first down that was miraculously completed at the 40 yard line. A few plays later and the Falcons kicked the game winning field goal to steal the win, 30-28. On Monday, Cam was taking all the blame.
