Does it matter?
First of all EJ wasnt supposed to start last year, they always acknowledged he needed work, but they saw the potential to develop him into a franchise qb. Their plan was to sit him for a year behind Kolb and bring him this year.
Secondly his injury history will be used as the main reason for failure if he does fail.
Thirdly because they started him last year they have basicly set him up to fail, as he will be judged by the fans this year. Hell, plenty of fans are allready passing judgement on him. It's not just the fans either, the pressure is on whilst he will still very much still be a rookie coming into this season. Not good.
In hind sight it would have been better for him to sit for a year, that way he would have his first year this year, we would be forgiven and he would be a lot farther in year three. As it stands now I'm in serious doubt if he'll even get to see year three as a starter.
