As if it weren't obvious, but Gus Bradley will likely never be a HC again after this turnaround. That guy was historically bad; this team was capable of learning how to win last year.

Well, no, but points for trying. I've been increasingly positive about this staff and the team's potential, despite my initial dislike of the decision to hire Marrone and keep Bortles. I think Marrone is a much better coach than I gave him credit for, and I still don't think Bortles is the answer. There are still things he could do to prove me wrong, but he's far too inconsistent, and you'd have a hard time trusting him.
There's a huge difference between not being sold on a team and "flip-flopping". I'm not sold yet, mostly because of the quarterback situation, but I really like what I've seen.

Just about every QB who has played the Colts has thrown for 300 yards. Kizer (who is unreal bad) threw for 240 and 2 TDs. Wilson threw for 295 but every other QB has thrown for over 300. Hoyer, Mariota, Palmer, Bortles, Goff.... That's not a bunch of world beaters out there.
So although everyone is happy Blake had a good game, some people need to understand that a lot of us are still skeptical and rightfully so. Blake has done this too many times to just give him the benefit of the doubt. He followed up his "break out" Ravens game with a 145 yard game against the Jets.
If he can come out and play well against the Bengals and Chargers, then he may have turned the corner.

He wound up being a sacrificial lamb. There's no way a team can go through 4 years of losing like that and keep up the effort without putting a new coach in there.

Today (and almost every win) they are great but next loss it's the same ol crap as above...
Pick a side and quit flip flopping, great when we win, stupid no nothings when we lose and should be fired before the crowd clears the stadium...

Why do you say that? You know that is not true at all. No, it is not funny.
