But if he can just be average with some great games here or there, and stay healthy for the next few seasons, the Jags do not have to waste pucks and money on a QB, and redirect those efforts to beef up the rest of the team

Do you know where Peyton Manning was at this same point in his career? Not good!

He was on his way to a 13 - 3 season, first pro-bowl appearance, and play-off appearance while leading the third best overall offense in the NFL. They got beat 19 - 16 by a pretty good tacks team in the divisional round that year.

Manning was successful after his rookie year. Yes, he threw a league leading 28 INT's that year, but, he also hit the endzone 26 times. But, as soon as he hit his 2nd year? He was pretty much money throughout the majority of his career. He was notorious for playing awful in the play-off's though up until the Bears game in Miami.
