Was pretty sweet opening up the Jags website this morning and seeing a big picture of Mariota on the main page.

Osweiler won the game and the 2nd spot over Bortles this past week with his 2 TD passes and 0 INTs, but just look at his completion percentage, total passing yards and YPA. That's by far the ugliest stats posted in this thread.
Blake is not the worse QB in the league, and we are pretty much asking him to carry us. But still he has to be better.
Mariota on the other hand, wow, what a difference. He is balling this year.
Maybe Mariota will become a fat drunk, lose all his hair, and regress to Pop Warner level mechanics in year 3.
A man can dream.

The way you post on this board makes you a bigger loser than Bortles
Maybe time to close this thread up? Lol reading thru some of the pages from the off-season are laughable at this point.
Just a reminder that when i said Marcus was better than Blake and that he was a great QB being held back by a bad oline and lack of rushing game i was called a troll
Thanks everyone for playing it was fun

Indeed. Now they just need a corner, a safety, and a fast WR.

How do you like Mularkey?

I think he's servicable. For now. Really hasn't been any atrocious play calling, and the players love him. Supposedly he's changed a bit since his days in Jax and is a little more relaxed. If he keeps decent coordinators and assistants then I think he will be fine.

1. No likes a person who says I told you so.
2. A lot of us didn't say Mariota was crap or for sure better than Blake. But at the time, during last season, Blake was playing better. I myself said the jury was out on Mariota, and that it was too soon in a rookie year to say what he truly was. Blake has had a horrible nine game streak so far, and now Mariota looks better and has the upper hand. If Bortles doesn't improve it will stay that way.
3. Clearly you are a troll in a way because you've exhibited schaudenfruede over the fact that Bortles is regressing and you were right about Mariota.

I dont care what you guys like lol. I had people in here telling me the titans should be looking for a new qb soon cause mariota had peaked, so yeah im a little bit satisfied that these same guys are watching their pseudo analysis getting exposed.

I'm rolling .gif "Laughing")
Where the hell have you been?
You on a rubbish win streak or something?
Flipped to the Colts game for a couple of plays and of course Luck throws a bonehead pick. He's still the same guy.

Those were few. There were way more who merely said patience on Mariota. Most fans thought Bortles would shoot for the stars after promise last year and look where we are now. Stop lumping all in the same coal.

You wish you had Luck so bad, it's sad.
Remember back in the day (beginning of the year) when you said Bortles was the best QB in the AFC South? Oh, good times.

He was, now it looks like Mariota he's really improved. Don't know what's happened to Bortles, looks like Luck last year.
So sad you only Post after a few wins.

He was last year, although that isn't saying much.
Look, of course we defended our QB and tried to downplay those of our rivals (although I wasn't one to say Luck was bad, I always said he was a franchise QB).
This is a Jaguars message board. It should be expected.
It is also understandable that fans from division rivals come here and give us crap now that Bortles has completely imploded.
I think 99% of the posters here aren't delusional about the fact that Bortles sucks. We had hope, we were wrong, and now we move on. Houston fans will be going through the same thing fairly soon.
I still believe Bortles can be the guy but obviously something isn't right at the moment, there's no consistency at all.
But Luck isn't anywhere close to top of the list who I would prefer playing in his place right now. You would still get the boneheaded plays with only slightly improved accuracy. Give me TY Hilton though.
