Will JC Get a Contract Extension From His Stats or Playoff Berth?
 

I know that some of you would think that if JC puts up good numbers we would win right? Not always the case for an example look at Aaron Rodgers 2008 stats

percentage: 63.6
Yards: 4038
TD's: 28
Int's: 13
QB Rating: 93.8
Team Record: 6-10

He had great numbers and if JC puts up similar numbers but the team goes 6-10 does JC get it? It's quite interesting because with the booing at Fed-Ex and Zorn's play calling if he goes 6-10 he's out i would think. So if Zorn is out but replaced would the new HC want there own QB? Better yet would Danny tell the new coach that JC must the franchise QB due to his previous performance? So in this case would a stellar season from JC really matter?

On the flip side of things if JC has a year very decent not flashy season but we are playoff bound (wildcard berth) and play for the NFC Championship game but lose. Zorn is awarded another year would JC get it? Question is how does he get it stats or playoff berth?

I was looking at his stats on nfl.com yesterday, and was a little suprised. I think he was the 12th overall in completions and rating. Just got to find a way to get in the end zone. He could throw for a 1000 yards a game, but if he doesn't score he'll be gone. I like JC, and I'm not saying he's the problem, but if we can't generate points this year, him and Zorn will be gone by next season.

I think that if JC puts up Rodgers '08 numbers, he stays regardless of record or Zorn's status.

Put this differently: if he puts up Rodgers '08 numbers and we let him go, I will be PISSED.

I want JC to succeed. I believe he has the physical ability. but for him to get a contract extension, he has to show more W's than L's at the end of the season. He has to develop an air of success. That is about as intangible as it gets. That is what he lacks, and if you ask me why I would shrug my shoulders. Simply put he has to lead the team "there" once, and then you believe he can do it again. Eli is the great example of this.

I want JC to get paid BIG!

Re: Will JC Get a Contract Extension From His Stats or Playoff Berth?
 

If he puts up Aaron Rogers numbers, we better sign him right away, no questions asked. However, he is on pace for 8 tds and 16 turnovers...if he does that, I'd rather have the towel boy give it a go and send Campbell to the unemployment line.

Re: Will JC Get a Contract Extension From His Stats or Playoff Berth?
 

The most important stat for any QB is wins. Always has been, always will be. He's not getting a contract extension unless he puts up the numbers [U]and[/U] we win.

With our defense, if Campbell has Rodgers' 2008 numbers we will have a 15-1 record.

Re: Will JC Get a Contract Extension From His Stats or Playoff Berth?
 

This is an interesting topic. I, as many, think that Zorn and Campbell have their fate intertwined.

For Zorn to stay, I think he must get to the playoffs. Therefore Campbell needs this to happen to keep his job despite the fact he is putting up decent numbers. Barring a probowl type stats, JC is linked with Zorn and need to get to the postseason.

W's count but JC would have to be a bigger part of them. If the defense is holding teams to 14 pts a game and CP is doing most of the scoring then JC is in trouble. I think JC has to show that he can carry this team when we need him to and be able to take over a game when the run game is ineffective.

Winning cures everything. Although, if this team does indeed become a pass-first offense, then this may happen...I don't know though, like I said, winning cures everything and he could be extended.

I'm not sure that no matter what JC does (except a Super Bowl win) he will get a contract extension. I just dont think the HC or FO have much confidence in him anymore.

Re: Will JC Get a Contract Extension From His Stats or Playoff Berth?
 

DS doesnt want to have a "game manager" at QB. He openly went out of his way to get a Pro Bowl QB who puts points on the board and throws for 300 yards a game. Thats what he wants, not a 200 yd a game QB who hands the ball of and makes a good throw when the team needs it. I may be wrong but this is what i get from the latest actions of our FO.

What makes you say that right now? Because the only thing that Zorn's playcalling is doing is making Zorn look bad. I think if JC gets good stats but not that many Ws, that will be fine for him b/c his stats will land him a new contract somewhere else. I think now more than ever, Zorn is depending on JC to do well and get the Ws for the sake of his job.

Well DS doesn't want a game manager because he wants to win now...but like I said earlier, if the team win, that won't matter.

I think Zorn's calls the plays to minimize JC's weakness at QB and like you said, right now he looks bad for doing it.

Yes but in the end, Campbell comes out with a good statistical game, and Zorn comes out like he has no balls in the RZ. If what you say is true, Zorn has a big problem and he needs to figure out how to minimize JC's weaknesses and win games, because like I said he's the one looking bad right now, not Campbell.
