I think it's fair to say our team as a whole is not succesful in the new system. JC didn't give up the points, the Defense did. Had Moss not dropped so many, if our O line gave better pass protection. If we had a better pass rush. If Smoot was still Smoot. ect...

Had we beat the Rams and Bengals we'd be in the playoffs. Our TEAM needs to step up. Including JC.

If everyone else does their job, Jasons job becomes easier. If the line does their job, he gets time. If the receivers are where they're suppose to be, he can release the ball sooner knowing they're gonna be there. It can't be easy learning a new offense while you're running for your life and trying to hit receivers who either drop the ball or are not where they're suppose to be. That's not making excuses, that's just the way it is. Now having said that, Jason has made mistakes too. Missed throws etc. He's made improvements this year whether people want to see it or not, but he still looks inaccurate and hesitant at times. Could be him, could be other factors. Probably a little of both. But I'm really interested myself in seeing JC run an offense where the rest of the players are doing their job as well as they should be before we send him packing. I suspect he's getting too much blame for a poor performance by the offense as a whole.
