All that said, I hope and think JC will have a big year, but the "haters" have every right to be critical of him. Irregarless of all the excuses, he's proven nothing yet.
You do realize your entire argument is predicated on the fact that we accept that interceptions are not bad things for an NFL Quarterbacks.

Note, that you did nothing to establish this fact. You offered an alternative suggestion that I've seen before, that 6 INTs is a high number given the circumstances, but it's also a lower number than pretty much anyone else in the league.

Chad Pennington was intercepted 7 times while being ultra cautious as quarterback of the Dolphins in the regular season. Now, according to your argument above, you must also think that 7 was too many INTs. After all, he only threw 19 TDs, so maybe he should have been chucking more and ducking less. Right?
