I say we dump Gus first and see if Bortles gets better.
 

literally nobody has said to dump Bortles now.

 

we know he's the best QB we have and our best hope for prolonged success.

 

WE also know Gus needs to go regardless of who the QB is.

 

we're just discussing things.. no need to get defensive about Bortles.

Haha exactly, people are soft and sensitive.
Quote:Big question. Did Bortles continue to work with House this past off-season? The answer to this question dictates if he is our long term answer.


Yes. And they talk every Friday according to his most recent presser.

Not trying to be defensive. It's just crazy to me how fast this board goes from top 10 QB to let's get someone else in here next year.


My Cleveland Browns thing was an atempt at an Archer joke.

Conflicting reports on that. Wonder why his mechanics have become so bad if they still work together.
Quote:Anyone who says that most of Bortles stats last year were in garbage time either didn't watch our games or doesn't understand what garbage time is.
It could be both.

Dude, nobody wants to dump everything. It's Gus.. He's a sprinkle covered tumor. He's like the really big beef burrito you got from LaNop.. He's just sitting there, causing nausea, making you feel bloated and dying to be expelled and flushed..
Quote:How many of those 35TDS came in the 1st half? Or in the 3rd or 4th quarter to tie the game or take the lead? Answer is not many.

Most came when trailing by 2 scores or more. He needs to play better when the score is close or tied. 
Blake has 3 first quarter TDs and 6 first quarter INTs in his 33 career starts.

 

He has also thrown 3 career TDs while leading, 4 TDs while tied, and an insane 44 INTs while trailing. 

 

Y'all can debate what 'garbage time' is and how many of his stats would fall into that category, but the truth is that in Blake's entire career he has not played even one complete game where he gave the team the lead and continued through with a solid wire to wire victory.

Only silly people were calling him a top 10 QB coming into this year.

 

He hasn't shown anything except for the ability to pile up stats while trailing games, and doing it quite inefficiently. 
That said, calling it after 3 weeks is silly. Turning to Henne right now would be foolish. However, unless there is a miraculous turnaround (not just back to what he was in 2015, but a big step forward from that even) then yes we should be looking for our new franchise QB next year.

And you choked everyone to death with your Teddy [BLEEP].. I'd STILL take Bort over that crap QB..

1. All I said was he was the best QB in the draft, which is proving to be more true by the minute.

 

2. He is far better than Bortles. It's not close. And I liked Bortles during draft time too.

There's absolutely NO hope for you.. We need a spider chart.

These are the last 3 throws that Teddy made before getting hurt. Blake hasn't shown us anything like this 3 throw stretch in his entire career. The motion, the ball placement, the timing...and every bit as much zip as Blake can muster too.

If you can't draft Teddy on your Madden team, do you keep hitting reset?

Yea it's a shame he ****** up his knee, I think he was headed for a nice season. Great kid, tough break, hopefully he comes back 100% next year. Upside isn't Bortles-like, but he has a higher floor.

And when people make you look silly with evidence do you always resort to ad hominems?

I've seen people say Dave needs to be fired as well. I get the concern with Bortles but We have no o-line and no running game and that makes his faults just that much worse.
I'd say the Bortles experiment deserves at least as much time the Chris Simms experiment did.

Beat me to it.
