No, they really aren't. Everyone knows the QB directs the offense, but that's not the same thing as being the leader of a group of men. I certainly can understand WHY he wasn't so vocal and authoritative last year, but it's just good that he now feels ready to take that command.

Jason probably felt that it wasn't "his team" yet before now, and I think now that he's been somewhat put on notice by Snyder and had his abilities questioned, he's fired up and isn't going to be taking any sh*t from anyone.

This, in a nutshell is why Gilbert Arenas is still (sadly, in my opinion as I'm a big Agent Zero fan) a 2nd tier player. He's the first one to defer to Jamison and claim he's not the leader of the team. Say what you want about LeWhine, Kobe, or even D-Wade, but all of those guys believe the team is theirs and they are the guys calling the shots.

I think on a professional football team you want that guy to be your QB, and I think for the first time Jason is projecting that kind of attitude.
