Re: JC is not what I thought.
JC did look rough at times: he held onto the ball too long, he wasn't very mobile in the pocket, he stared down his primary receiver, and he threw under the chains too much. But he didn't have a whole lot of help. Poor pass protection threw off the timing on some routes like the deep ball to Santana that could've been a TD. Even when he made good throws, there were drops. Moss started running for some YAC without bringing it in, and Thrash had a beautiful deep ball bounce off his hands and shoulder pads. Penalties deflated drives. All those mistakes and the Giants D kept the offense from getting into a rhythm. Hopefully, New Orleans' D is still just as porous as it was last year, and the O can get it going next week.
