So after our 7 game pre season we are ready to roll in the season opener vs San Diego with Bortles.


How about some positivity...we genuinely have something to look forward to next week. Now we can watch a young team grow. I think we play the Chargers very close.


Who thinks we can win?

Nope.  It'll be something like 38-24 but it'll be the best offense we've seen all year.
bingo the season starts this week for me. Everything up until now is a wash, this is where we see the starters playing.

I hope we improve but if we aren't making the playoffs I want the best draft position possible lol.  And then cross our fingers that DC is a good GM because I'm not sold on him.
we'll be able to score

screw that, I'm done hoping for draft positions, I want to win as many games as possible be it 5,6,7 or more just win baby!
San Diego is the hottest team in the NFL right now. Add to that we're traveling to the west coast to play them and I don't think we stand a chance to beat them, but I don't care. I'll be watching to see what Bortles can do
Is Bortles going to play DE, DT, LB, and DB too?  If not, it's not going to change a lot.

Sure it is don't believe me take Luck away from the colts and let's see how many problems arise. Great QB's (which is what I believe Bortles is) cover a multitude of problems, INCLUDING average to poor defenses.

I would hold off on that until you see how he plays throughout the season.

 

If I had $300 I would buy a Bortles jersey as soon as the black ones are available.

How are they the hottest team? They are 2-1 and a few other teams has gone 3-0. We're bound to win one we weren't supposed to win and this is it. I think all things will click and we pull it out.

A $300 jersey?! Yikes... You're overpaying....

If he can help us score 30 points it changes quite a lot.
I have a feeling our D is going to play alot better when they have confidence the O is going to move the ball, score points and give them a break between series.  

we are going to get f'd in the a and it won't be bortles fault in the slightest

rivers tore apart an identical defense scheme of ours with far more talented players playing the positions

he will pick us apart and bortles right now won't be able to match him in a shoot out

 

either way it will be far more exciting and good experience

Yes because they can play a little looser and not worry about pitching a shut out.  I don't expect a win but a good game would be nice.

How does that help if the other team is scoring in the 40s?

It's much harder for the other team to reach the 40s when our team isn't going 3 and out every drive.

LOL I could spend only $100, but that would be a replica, not an elite jersey. The Mark Brunell jersey I am wearing now is elite, so I thought I should get the same thing for Bortles.

 

Black jerseys are not available at NFL Shop yet anyway, which makes no sense because the white ones are.
