Hopefully it is sometimes after you get home from work.

Quote:He brought up preseason.

 

Gotcha. I think Gabbert being good in preseason is a myth, though he's looked better in preseason compared to regular games.

Some of Bortles strengths are moving in the pocket, buying time and throwing on the run. So wouldnt our terrible oline be less of a problem with him starting?? These are things Henne cant do well.

Yup.  But henne is a veteran, which apparently means something even when you suck soo...

Quote:My point is you don't want to see Bortles play behind this crappy line and get hurt because five guys in front of him suck. If we wait until the line is better at protecting him  he is less likely to get hurt early in his career.

 

In case you missed it on Sunday, Henne took 10, yes that's a Jags record 10 sacks yesterday, and is he hurt? Is he too hurt to play in the next game?

 

Henne survived 10 sacks, why can't BB survive a few sacks.

 

Stop being scared to play the QB you drafted #3 overall. Let's see what he can do.

 

What do we have to lose? The game? They would lose with Henne anyway.

This for 2 reasons. One Bortles isn't going to have taken all 10 sacks. Maybe 4-5. And also, Henne is not hurt. What is BB made of glass? I believe he's tougher than Henne.

If you watched that game yesterday, and still want henne to start next week, there is something seriously wrong with you.  I  mean go see a doctor something wrong with you.

Quote:The "Gabbert was good in the preseason too" is the dumbest thing.

 

As a rookie, he was mediocre in the preseason.

 

He flashed the occasional good play in the preseason. He flashed the occasional good play in the regular season. The odd play where you hoped the lights would come on and he'd play like that all the time, and where in fact that never happened.


I think where people are getting confused is that he was better than Henne in the preseason. We shouldn't mix that up with being good.

I don't think anyone is banging their fist for Henne to start. I think most reasonable people understand though that Bortles starting isn't going to magically fix the teams woes.
