Quote:"Im going to throw out the only statistic that agrees with me and ignore the rest" is basically what I read there. Any Pick-6 is bad timing and nearly kills your chances of victory "You're either good or not good" is a stupid shortsighted statement as well in terms of scouting a player. Nitpicking my post may be but Im 100% THRILLED about Bortles growth this season. He's gonna be a legend if he keeps the hard work up.
The ONLY stat that agrees with me? He's 3rd in TDs and 6th in passing yards. He's dominating. Wake up
Only thing I hope he just keeps getting better and starts to not have the boneheaded throws force the D to make a great play for a possible int. The last few weeks the bad throws have seemed to go down to a couple so thats great

I think ThunderCat is anti-Bortles?
one or two others.... I'd have to go searching back in the BBINT thread...
and maybe in the BB VS MM thread
What really impresses me is Bortles' interception rate in the last two games: 0.0. Keep it up, big guy.
Also, in those last two games, he's really improved his red zone production.
I'm hoping a light has gone off.
Quote:I think the issue with Bortles' INT's isn't really the total amount or percentage but rather the timing. They more than often not come at terrible times and for TDs. With that said, This hasn't been the case in the last half of this season. He is playing at a top 5 level.
Also I'd like to mention something about INTs. ITs alot like blood and sharks. The more INT's you get, The more DBs take risks to try and jump routes. The more blood is in the water, The sharks come. It really is the perfect comparison. Once the water settles however....the sharks back off.
This I can actually agree with.
While he doesn't do it in the RZ, he does seem to do it often when we're about to come back or tie, or when we're trying to pull away. And too many have been of the pick-6 variety.
I call it Garrarding.
But he's young. And he shakes it off really well. It is rare that he stacks up multiple picks. And he has 0 the past two games (almosts and couldas don't count)

To the defense of thundercat--- he's been wise enough to recognize that bb5 is playing like a top 10 qb right now.
Let's give him credit for recognizing the facts as presented on the football field. There are other morons that have a terrible time recognizing what they are seeing on the field. Well, I should say there is one moron.... Lol
BBINT will follow him forever at this rate
BBINT ..Just unpadding ur stat for you hahah..
May be a gamekiller tho..
I guess we should provide an updated calculation after every INT for the rest of his career, right? This is important stuff. Who's on it?

Seriously? Everyone was praising him last week. It was a dumb INT today but get off of it.

Well, don't you know that after every great play, someone is getting inducted into the HoF, and after every mistake, someone's head has to roll? Last week Greg Olson was the best OC in the league. Now, after the INT, he must be fired.
Dude only shows up when he throws a Int. Your lame bro
Was a VERY obvious passing situation with 14 on the clock and no time outs, he's got to know they are sitting back there just waiting to jump a route when being thrown from the one..
Was classic BBINT.... regardless of being a gunslinger and giving us a chance to win games with his play, he has a BAD habit about making dumb throws.
Thats why I coined the nickname..
I want the Jags to win, ive been following them since the very beginning.. but.. Bortles ... he's gotta play smarter or BBINT WILL follow him.

Not true at all. Check my posts... or cant you read?
You're either blind, or illiterate.. bro.
Nice positive signature you have there.... bro....
Fail.... bro

Who? I call the good plays and bad plays. Stating that BBINT is gonna follow him for these mistakes when it turns to points is accurate.
Now we're tied again thanks to TD's by Bortles, I see the usual crowd has once again gone to their little hidey holes.

Bortles is definitely resilient. He'll throw those picks but he will come out with a fire afterwards. It's almost better to let him throw that pick to cheese him off.
Carr just threw a pick 6. Maybe Oakland will cut him.
