So... will you be rooting for him or against him this season??

I absolutely root for him as well as the entire team. But, to beat this dead horse to an absolute pulp, IMHO, I'm inclined to give someone another chance. He's made too many poor choices on the field based on his tenure. But most importantly, I just don't think he has the capacity to be the leader this team needs right now.

The point may be moot, however, as I believe this is the final year of his contract. Like others have observed, if he doesn't have a Pro Bowl year, I think he's toast.

Ok just checking.

As for giving someone else a chance, who at this point?

Nobody would argue this is a do or die year for JC.

Unless I'm mistaken, JC has already "earned" the starting spot, so he starts, of course. But, should Campbell flounder like I expect he will, then don't waste yet more time "bringing him along", especially if we're still in contention at that point. Collins would naturally get the nod. If we're out of contention, then Chase should get as much playing time as possible. (Yes, I think if Thursday's match up ends as I suspect, Colt gets the boot.)

And then there's that guy named Tebow, I believe, who should be around next April - maybe we can "throw" the next 16 games and invite him to play - wouldn't THAT be splendid??? :-)

He more than likely won't play QB in the NFL

In the past, I agree but there was something a little different about his poise and attitude last Friday that I haven't seen. Could be a flash but hoping it's a trend. Hoping. I think we all hope he can blossom.
