In the three victories this year (and in a few of the losses too), he's done exactly what was expected of him. Get rid of the ball quickly, avoid the big mistake (sack, turnover) and throw catchable passes. I can only think of one pass that he missed today, he wasn't sacked and he didn't have any fumbles or INT's. He even showed a little mobility on that 3rd down play.
Does this mean anything? To me, the significance is that this team can still win some games with Bledsoe- he doesn't need to put up 400 yards like he did in '02, just be consistent and protect the ball. JP is still the future of this franchise and I'd like to see the coaches work him in somehow as soon as he is healthy- the kid needs experience ASAP. But if Bledsoe can continue to play like he did the last two weeks, I won't have any problems with him being in the lineup.
