I don't care if the benching of Bortles would be perceived as giving up on him. I don't care if it hurts his confidence moving forward. I want to at least see what Allen can do in the last two meaningless games. Likely wont happen though.
Also, please, please, please give us more Myles Jack.
If you start Brandon Allen, you might be risking interceptions, fumbles, inaccurate passes. Better to stick with Bortles, who you definitely know will throw interceptions, who will fumble, and will throw inaccurate passes.
Definitely play Allen, if for no other reason than to see how he handles the situation. I also like the idea of giving Jack a few carries- just for entertainment value. Now that I think of it, Khan would be wise to insist that Jack start at running back so more fans will show up due to curiosity. Otherwise, there may be 10,000 people there.
Start Brandon Allen at QB. Put Myles Jack at MLB and Poz at Otto.
Bortles needs to be benched
I start Allen for the rest of the season and see what we have. I play Myles Jack every snap at MLB and see how he fares. I cut T.J. Yeldon, because I've wanted to do that ever since he was drafted. He is garbage and always will be. He adds nothing to this team. I play a conventional 4-3 scheme with some 3-4 looks mixed in as well and I blitz a little more. Other than that, you are limited by the personnel we have. You can't really make any drastic moves until we fill some needs in the offseason.
Bench Bortles, play Allen. See what the kid is made of. Play Jack more on the field, move him to SS when it's passing downs. Take away all S*P*R*I*N*K*L*E privileges for all players except Lee, Ramsey, and Smith. No more S*P*R*I*N*K*L*E*S until next year after starting to win and keep it going.....
I think we are already blitzing a whole lot. I can't find blitz %s, but I see that we are in the top half of the league in total hurries while being bottom 4 in pressure % when only rushing 4 men.
That would imply that we are rushing more than 4 men way more often than the typical team.
I send Blake to Cali early.

For real... Can't they just pay House to come out here and move into his guest room? Better yet, Khan needs to just pay him to be the QB coach.
That's easy. I would cut Bortles and Yeldon. They are the worst players on the team.
I hate to echo anyone but I would start Brandon Allen, just to see what we got. Blake is the backup letting Henne know that the free paycheck is over.
Keep the seat warm until Tom comes home.
Bench Bortles.
Start Allen.
Rest Poz.
Play Jack.
It'll be interesting to see, because doing the status quo will definitely not work. You've got to do something different I would certainly think.
Make Bake No. 3 on the QB roster and tell him he has to work his [BLEEP] off to even make the team in 2018.

What about 2017?

Not even remotely possible. It takes at least an entire off-season to change an offense.
1. Sell the house.
2. Send out my resume' to other teams.
3. Check out housing prices and school districts in other NFL cities.
