I really dont think his mid-range passes are an issue as far as a accuracy. Jason can fire it on a string. I think it takes more effort by the WR's and JC needs to get better on pocket presence. If WRs have excellent route running and use your speed. Then there should be greater separation. Which makes it easier for the QB. I think JC has been schooled to be too careful. We try to use the Trent Dilfer Bmore Superbowl strategy. To do that you need Bmore's defense. Which is something we don't have. We have to get over it when JC makes a mistake. QBs throw interceptions (see Jay Cutler & Delhomme). But let JC make one mistake and people are saying off with his head. I think its hard for any QB to suceed on our team with such a ready to attack fan base. He never had the chance to throw caution out the window and make mistakes and learn from them. That's why his progression has been so slow. He hasn't had room to make mistakes at all. But when he goes like x amount of games without throwing a interception last year. He gets no credit. Its hard for any QB to make it here. Because of our inconsistencies with coaching staffs and also the pressure here is probably greater than it is in most places. Saying that JC has kept everything internal. But have some faith in the guy. He isn't as bad as most people think. The arguement that he holds on to the ball more than 3 seconds is laughable. You can only make a pass in three seconds if you have WRs that are executing. I challenge you to find a QB that gets rid of the ball that fast. Not many do. I can say Peyton, Brees & Brady get the ball of that quick. Warner also (probably had the quickest release when he was with the Rams). But these are top tier QBs but even they hold on to the ball at times, when no one is open -- But usually that is not an issue because Peyton has Reggie Wayne, Brady has Moss, Warner had his weapons in Arizona and STL. It's more about executiuon as a whole. JC is not the only one to blame. He is only part of the problem.
The problem is WRs aren't getting open so he has to wait. But I rather he take off and get some yards. I htink he is much better in the shotgun, no huddle and when he uses his legs to avoid pressure then takes off. His decision making needs to be quicker as far as that is concerned. But not as much as his release. I thin that is more a side effect of receivers not creating separation and D-lineman breathing down his neck. He needs to show and prove from this point on. If he doesn't get it done this season we will need another QB.
