Re: JC is not what I thought.
 
It's amazing how much people flip flop on JC. I was at the game, up in section 412, and there were these guys sitting behind me, and after every failed play that involved JC, this guy would just trash him. He'd start talking about how Colt Brennan should be playing, how long it's been and JC still sucks, etc. Then the 4th quarter bomb happened and this dude starts celebrating and telling all his friends how he knew deep down that JC has it. I'm sure there are people on this board exactly like that too.

That's why after every game, win or lose, I pretty much remind myself that they aren't as horrible as they look, or in the case of a winning game, they aren't as good as they look.

[COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]It's pretty easy to flip flop when JC has been so inconsistent. However, I have never seen him play the way he played on Sunday. There hasn't been a game prior that I came away feeling that good about him. I didn't see much in that game that he did wrong, so I'm surprised you heard a guy screaming for Colt at all.

LOL you'd be suprised. After an overthrow, a sack, any kind of negative play that involved JC you would've been hearing 2-3 guys calling for Collins or Brennan.

[COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]He wasn't perfect, but compared to his play previously? OMG, it was like night and day. That kid was fighting for his job out there and he did very well. I just hope he keeps it up![/FONT][/COLOR]

Re: JC is not what I thought.
 
One thing that's bothered me is what exactly has he done to warrant all the criticism ANYWAY? He's been pretty consistent over the years that he's started and that includes a fairly dated offensive scheme he was running.

It's almost like people were taking that first Giants game and acting like that's the only one that "counted" when it comes to JC.

Yeah compared to bad days' of his it was a great day for him by any standard, but some fans want perfection which is ridiculous.

Don't get me going. He has done plenty. But this is happy JC time.

Well people did have last years loosing streak from last year before he got hurt and preseason and the Giants game where he just looked lost. To say he has been pretty consistent over the past few years is a streetch but I hope he can build off this win.

I wish this article would be posted on here. That is sad. How fickle some fans are.

Excerpt from article:

He was skewered, from the lout beneath the press box in Section 107, one level up from the field, who cupped his mouth like a megaphone and shouted, "Jason, you're not our franchise quarterback!" to the cretin behind his own bench.


"That guy would say, 'Come on, Jason, throw the ball downfield,' " Campbell said. "Or he would stand up and yell, 'Jason, you [stink].' Real nice, huh? You tune it out, but . . . "
It's unclear whether the fan was the same man high-fiving his friends repeatedly after Santana Moss skipped into the end zone with the football and victory in his hands. Or whether that was the same fan telling everyone in his vicinity how he always knew Campbell had not only the mental and physical wherewithal to pick up a complex, new system but also the gumption to throw a clutch bomb in the crucible of a home



Talking about flip-floppers!! lol RIDICULOUS

I wish some of these fans would switch teams. I really do. If you did'nt know who they were, you would swear they were cowgirl, iggle, or giant fans. I hear more detrimental crap from them than the opposing teams fans. If you just want to bitch and create some kind of drama, go on the Jerry Springer show.

Yeah that's bad when fans of other teams dont bash our players as much as we do!!

Re: JC is not what I thought.
 
I've always hate it when fans BOO our players at games. I HATE that.. I just want to smack all 50K of them at once and shut them up!

JC won the game.......Whether it was messy OR perfection, A big "W" is all that counts in my book.

Re: JC is not what I thought.
 
JC said it on Comcast last night, QB gets too much credit for wins and most of the blame for losses.

He's got 3 300 yard games, 6 games with 60% or higher completion percentage and has 8-4 TD-INT over the past 8 full games.. That's what we call in the English language "progress"..

I know this won't silence the relentless criticism but hopefully it will get them to STFU for a week or so.
