Big plays ARE NOT a rare occurance in many NFL offenses. Indy, STL, NO, Cinn, and Phil to name a few get big plays all the time.

Throwing 6ints in 7 starts IS NOT forcing the ball. Not even close on that one. Considering JC got NO WORK w/ the 1st team in 1 1/2 years and had to learn ANOTHER OFFENSE, I think he did damn good. So what if he took more chances. We needed to take more chances because a lack of a deep passing game. Cooley made that play against Car. because JC threw it over the middle on a rope and hit him in stride. That deep in cut is a staple of the STL and KC offenses. You see STL run that route better than anyone. When MB was playing we led the NFL in sideline passes. Troy A. pointed this out during a beating we took against Phil when I believe we had 110 yards passing. We did not bring in SM w/ 4.2 speed, ARE and Lloyd to throw screens, curls and 10 yard outs all game long.. I bet you will see a more open offense this year w/ ALOT more deep passes. Not sure if you remember but Gibbs 1 threw it downfield ALL THE TIME!!!

Gtripp...FYI all QB's turn the ball over including, Manning and Brady. It's just part of the game. You can't win in the NFL playing scared offense unless you have a truely great defense. Not the case here. Plus the rules BEG YOU to throw it downfield becasue of the PI factor.
