Who will be then? I think his "situation" is great. An up and coming team, with a quarterback who's starting to get better. This isn't the NFL purgatory that is the Buffalo Bills.

I like JC but I'm but I'm not sold on the fact that he is our next francise QB at this point. You said he was getting better maybe in stats but his win loss colume is still not very good. He has shown sign but he was on a 4 game loosing streek when he was injured. It took a 2nd string QB to turn around our season. I'm hope we have an open compition for the starting QB in training camp.

Todd Collins did not single-handedly "turn around our season". He was a part of it, yes, and he did a great job. A lot of other factors went into it. Blaming the wins and losses on the QB in this situation doesn't make sense.

I'm not blaming any QB but they do get the credit for the wins and the losses just as the coaches get the credit for the same. It does make sense when the QB throws very bad picks late in the games when we are driving the ball. Like I said I like JC but he still has to prove that he is a francise QB. Can you honestly say he shown that he is at this point?

Unless, you know, they are undeserving of the credit. Then it's just bad analysis.

Collins played better than Campbell this year, but that doesn't mean he (JC) didn't make strides.

I'll agree he made stride but not enough for me to crown him as our franchise QB. If he does not show us more next year then it may be time to look for another QB.
