he had 1 4k year in denver, the rest of the time mid 3k.
His 2nd year 21 td's 20 TO's, 3rd year 27 td's, 21 turn overs, 1st year here 28 td's, 30 to's, 2nd year 24 td's, 26 to's.
His td's and int's have largely remained the same. both are in the low to mid 20's. He has largely been a guy that is as likely to turn the ball over as get you a TD, and that hasn't changed since his days in Den. So no it's not mostly on the play callling or the talent or the line; but it has contributed to a small degrading of his td to to ratio.
his completions % has remained right around or just below 60%
his ypc only dipped to under 7.3 his 1st year in chicago,
THAT IS JC's MO. He WILL turn the ball over eventually, He WILL have games where he will implode if you give him the oppertunity just like he will give you games where he will take over and destroy you if you let him. He's a huge talent, by far the best qb we've had since I've been alive, but he is also a largely flawed talent that has penchant for blowing games, and that started before he got to Chicago. And GB has a blueprint for how to beat him; so he AND the staff better figure out how to fix that.
