JC has had every opportunity. Regardless of the line, playcalling, injuries, etc. this is the NFL, and at some point the qb leads or gets out of the way. He should finish the season as the starter, only because no one is going to step up and do better than him. Once the season is over, he will be a perennial backup, and maybe he will flourish in that role. It's not unheard of. He obviously has lots of physical skill, it just doesn't translate to a team leader. He has charisma, and personal skills, and he can run a 2 minute drive fairly well when given control. But something- that intangible IT- or killer instinct or whatever, just isn't there. And it's a shame because, had he had IT, we would have been praising Gibbs et al for bringing him in. Instead it's just another aggravating factor for us fans who have lots of aggravation already.
