To be fair... he was pretty terrible up to this point in his career.
And we don't know for sure that he would have played well here.
He's still Case Keenum. Not a guy you want to depend on to win you games. Very good backup and occasional spot starter.
Pair him with the best WR-TE trio in the league, an elite line and a very good OC and he can start for you I guess.

Right - that's why I mentioned him after he had just put up 369 yards and 3 TDs over the bucs. And it's why I suggested him as a vet place-holder while a draft pick is being groomed.
Now he's shown that the one game that made me consider him for that role next year wasn't just a fluke.
There are a lot of ways to address QB in 2018. One of those ways is a mid-tier FA coupled with a draft pick to be groomed. I think Keenum is a candidate if the Jags go in that direction. I'm not declaring him a franchise back or anything like that.
Laughing at people in this thread who think Bridgewater is better than Case Keenum. Keenum has a better body of work
What I’m happy about is that we will have the ability to address the qb position this offseason with a minimum two new qbs

The fear is that we said the same thing last year...
The elephant in the room with regards to getting a QB this offseason is that the front office has already proven they are unable to evaluate the QB spot. Now it's entirely possible (and I would almost say likely) that they show they can do that this year but it's not sure thing.

Tom was here when we decided to give Bortles the option and stick with him for this year. He was here when we passed on QBs in the draft.

True, I'm glad we didn't take a QB early though. We wouldn't have LF and I feel this QB class is much deeper.

You know my thoughts on the LF Vs a QB in last year's draft but I'd feel alot better about it if we landed one of the top 3 guys this year. Worried that none of them will make it to us.
That s a good thing. Otherwise we be losing yet again.
