Arguably the best game Bortles has played where he has thrown for less than 150 yds and only completed 50%; no turnovers, no lost fumbles.  Even without BB's 81 yards, the running game was ok (102 yards); certainly enough to win the game.  Defensive lapses that gave up big plays and poor time / time out management cost us the chance to win.  When you have the opportunity to tie the game but then lose because of poor clock management, then you know you are getting closer to possibly winning a game.  That being said, add the failure to call a time out and the subsequent 5 yard out play call on 4th and 9 as yet another brick in the wall of a frustrating losing season.  As another poster said somewhere else on this forum, we only win another game by accident.

This team lacks the will to win. They lack heart. They are gutless worms.

It's always something though.. he didn't turn the ball over but forgetting to call time out and taking the delay of game penalty was a rookie mistake.

I don't think so. Tell this man that and see what it would get you.

26 of 32 teams in the NFL have 4 wins or more.  That represents 81.25% of the teams in the NFL.

 

It's really not that hard to win 1/3 of your games in the NFL but for some reason we've failed tremendously over the Gus Bradley era.

He also missed recievers downfield wide open.

It's the little things that are killing this team.  We are moving the ball. We are playing good defense. It's the little things in between that are hurting us.  Marks jumping offsides against the Lions.  Bortles' failure to call a time out.  It all goes back to coaching.
