Totally!
JC IS OUR FUTURE..............but he definately pressing to hard, rather than letting it happen. As is evident, he is making horrific mistakes at the worst possible times.
JC has MUCH on his shoulders. Maybe to much right now. He may be very relieved to get out of that for the moment. He may also have an oppurtunity to learn by watching.
AND........a little bench time may help (without the ego issues as he was injured). It worked for Theisman. You never know

Gotta' go.............got a meeting with the Easter Bunny

The Bears decided to blitz which plays right into Collins strengths. When a team blitzes there are opportunites for a QB who knows the scheme and where he can go with the football quickly. I think the Giants will play coverage, assume they can get pressure with their front four, and force Collins to make big throws in a stadium that usually has a 20 mph wind this time of year. It will be a much greater challenge. At some point you have to be able to run the ball against a team like the Giants and I'm not sure we can
