There was more to Joey than just a bad environement. Do I think he could be in a different place right now in his development had he been drafted by another team? Absolutely. But if you think Joey is going to walk right in and be a good QB just because he likes the coaching staff and needs a change of scenery, you're crazy. Joey still makes the same mistakes a rookie QB makes. He has very "happy feet" from getting his *** beat for years. Those things aren't just going to change because he's wearing teal now. I expect him to struggle at least this 1st year, until he learns how to play QB again in a whole different atmosphere. If you're expecting him to rattle off 3 or 4 wins for a quarter of the season until C-Pep is ready you're setting your self up for disappointment. His development will take time, but I think he can turn his career around now that he's out of Detroit.
