Yeah the WCO is shorter, quicker passing routes that helps open up the running attack. That being said I wish our running game was a bit better. Portis might not hit 1000 yards at the rate he is going. That being said do you guys think I should play JC or the Buffalo QB this Sunday for fantasy?

I agree. Im concerned about the running game myself. I don't get why they decided to keep gibbs's running game. I thought the WCO implored it's own running game, much of it out of spread formations.

Before the season is over he's going to have a few bad games. I hope people can keep that in mind and not toss him under the bus again as soon as he does have a bad one. Every QB struggles at times.
i couldnt have said that any better. but keep in mind a poor showing this weekend and JC will be back under the bus. there is no if ands or buts about it IMO. i like what i have seen. No ints nor fumbles. Thats managing a game. He isnt putting our defense out there on a short field. I really like the progress and confidence i am seeing in him. Lets hope we can carry that over into playing dem boys. I again like our chances. Run the damn ball and JC play as effective as he has been in the last two weeks and i really like our chances Sunday.

If he stays healthy, he's a shoo-in for 1,000 yards.

Actually he's on pace for 1,323 yards.

One thing I love about JC is how well he sells the play action. It's a minor detail, but he really excels at it.

The draw play that he and Portis sell is really good too.

Wasn't that the play that we used to get Cooley wide open for the 1st down late in the 4thQ against the Cards?

I think the lesson to be learned is that you don't blame one player when the entire team plays like crap. When all other phases of the game are working and one guy is holding you back - think Tavaris Jackson - then you start complaining. But more than anything these past two weeks have shown what JC can do when everyone else decides to step up.

Qb Rating of 100.1, up from 77;
Completion % up from 60.0 to 65.6
No picks.
One helluva year, so far.
Sitting in the stands at Fedex, midway therough the 2nd qtr last week against N.O., it was this big 'click' you could hear as it all just meshed.
Sure, there will be setbacks, but we are all seeing the progress we hoped we'd see.
Credit to the young man and the young coach.
Nice job.
