No.

jj is not as talented. he's just not. the kid is solid, but unless he can set and take a step forward, he's not accurate at all. (even when he does, he's only fairly accurate). this conference is too tough today. you have to be able to throw off you back foot with at least some accuracy. you have to be able to keep your eyes down feild at all times, you have to hit small windows. all 3 are something he just can not do. he's just not talented enough for this leauge.

I think your hopes are too high for JJ. I expect the same qb for the last 3 years. But don't fret Les will play him all year unless he gets hurt.

FWIW, in Campbell's junior year, he had a 132 efficiency rating, completed 62% of his passes, threw for 10 TDs with 8 INTs.

His soph year with half the team's snaps got him a 149 rating, 63%, 11TD and 4 INTs

In other words, he always had good seasons and was never among the worst performing QBs in the nation like Jefferson. Being the worst certainly give you the most room for improvement. But it is unrealistic to expect an outlier performance from Jefferson. It is more realistic to expect subtle improvement. Unfortunately, subtle improvement from Jefferson is still underperforming below the level that a championship team requires.

got to give him credit for working hard in the off season, but I am skeptical about improvement as an over all QB
