Kurt Warner has a really good breakdown of JD's game on Monday night.
JD had a good game but definite room for improvement. I suspect he isn't settling in the pocket because he's skittish from the o-line not giving him time, this is affecting him on plays where he does have enough time in the pocket to find the open receiver, set his feet and make an accurate throw. Warner highlights how receivers are getting open but JD isn't seeing them or isn't trusting his instincts.
Yes he settled in Monday night and had a solid game but there was definitely several plays where he took the easy checkdown despite open receivers being open downfield. I don't think he trusts the o-line to give him enough time to find the longer developing routes.

As we can see here there are plays that JD can make and he has time to throw. He's just not cutting it loose. As Warner said, " do you want to be great?" If you do then cut the ball loose, let the plays develop. Aikman was pointing this out on Mon that he had guys open downfield.
