Lol footwork and arcs for wobbly passes.


Yall are trying WAY too hard.

Blaine's throwing mechanics make  Bortles' throwing mechanics look like Blaine's pocket presence.

Get home field advantage and thats less of an issue B)

 

...and the SB is usually played in pristine weather conditions....so

People need to realize the coaching staff is tweaking Blake's mechanics. So it's not out of the ordinary for him to be throwing a few "ducks" every now and then. But hey, he's still getting the ball to his target which, at the end of the day, is all that matters.

bake already showing more promise in practice than blondie ever did. and his best quality is only evident during in-game situations.

They're tweaking his mechanics, not rebuilding them.

I hope that doesn't mean we only play well in night games.

I think that belongs in the message board dictionary.

Does PETA know about this duck throwing thing? Last thing the Jags need is a Mike Vick type incident

I don't think PETA would have a legal issue with it... a Cat throwing a duck around is nature at it's best...

that's a good point.

Quack Quack... Bortles won't start next year either if he continues to throw ducks.

The QB that will likely go down as the best statistical QB of all time made a career of 'em. 

 

Lets stop trying to force Bortles into being something he's not. The most important thing is accuracy for a QB, not "style" points on the perfectness of his spirals. 

The bigger issue resulting from poor mechanics is that it hurts his velocity. Someone mentioned that he was too much of an "arm" thrower in college, which is a perfect assessment. For those people who are suggesting he shouldnt be the backup: he was taken #3 overall. If he isn't the backup, that would be very concerning.

What do you mean footwork has nothing to do with spirals? You can't honestly believe this. If you do, you know nothing about throwing a football.

Please explain to me how footwork has something to do with throwing a spiral. I throw a pretty darn good spiral and I think it is safe to say Bortles has better footwork than I do. You can stand flat footed and throw a spiral. People that are sitting in a chair can throw a spiral. So much footwork involved in that situation isn't there. Did you just want to try and make it seem like you know what your talking about? I have seen amputees throw spirals.


I guess Peyton has terrible footwork because that man will throw some ducks.
