Don't know how that Walters td wasn't intercepted. He needs to chill out with all the turnovers because as good as you think he is this team will never do nothing with your qb costing you 3 turnovers in a game and pick 6's. So be all giddy like a school girl all you want but that has to change drastically.

That fumble when he was scrambling hurt. We had momentum and on our way to score and win the game.
Bortles stinks.... He's lost more games for this team than the sorry Kicker.
Bortles is the man. True gamer. Love that he takes chances and tries to make plays. Actually he doesn't try to make plays.. He DOES make plays! A rising star in this league and he's our QB. Really exciting.
I was at the game and even the jets fans were ooing and ahhhing when he escaped sacks and made things happen.
He was so raw coming out of college, that I look at this year as almost part 2 of his rookie season. He's just trying to do too much and putting the entire game on his shoulders. It's admirable, but at the same time, you can't risk it all every play because that's not how you win. He's learning and improving, so as long as that keeps happening it'll be fine. Favre was a guy that never learned this but became a great QB regardless, so there's always that.
He's already really good and getting better.
If people want to focus on the negative...whatever.
I will be shocked if he isn't a star in this league.
On the flip side, for the rest of the game he was 16/30 (53%) for 161 yards (5.3 ypa) with 1 TD and 2 ints. The production down the field is nice, but you don't win games with that type of horrible inefficiency.

Agreed. He was the most raw prospect of the top qbs in the 2014 draft. He has improved leaps and bounds from where he was at this point last season.
We finally have our franchise qb. Our fan base has had to deal with miserable qb play for so long that we just don't want to accept we found the guy, and instead, nitpick the hell out of everything he does. He made some bone headed decisions yesterday, but it doesn't make me forget that he made a bunch of great plays as well. Unlike last season, the good decisions are out weighing the bad ones 2:1. He was sacked 6 times and faced unrelenting pressure all game, and he still threw for almost 400 yards. He has way too much on his plate... it'll be great to see him having a running game consistently. He has improved dramatically throwing the deep ball. He does need to work on his decision making, his pocket awareness, and his accuracy between the LOS and 20 yards downfield, but I haven't seen anything that tells me he won't.

That and the muffed punt were what lost us the game. Interceptions suck but nothing sucks the air out of a team like losing a fumble.

Yeah the muffed punt was the breaking point.
Blake had his mistakes that hurt but he also kept the team in the game with some darn good throws (and nice catches by the two WRs) to Hurns and ARob.
Blake Bortles is not in any way the problem with this team.
Without Blake yesterday and say Chad Henne instead...this team probably doesn't score 7 points. If they even scored at all. Chad Henne would have been lucky to even survive the constant pressure Blake faced.

You aren't very bright. Name a team that's EVER won giving up 29.4 points per game.
Quote:Ignore the trolls, what's impressive is Blake is doing this with 2nd receivers and a running game that is non-existent.
You lost me here. He's got great receivers and Yeldon has been getting going of late.

Must be your first time watching the NFL. The QB makes the WRs, not the opposite. See Larry Fitzgerald's stats this year vs. last year. He's the same player. Palmer is back.

Oh, so Deandre Hopkins (3rd in yards) can thank Hoyer for all his success. Brandon Marshall (6th in yards) is only good because of Ryan Fitzpatrick. They go hand and hand.

Brandon Marshall has been good EVERYWHERE he's been. He's going to the Hall of Fame on this pace. Bad example.

If anything you continue to prove my point. You just said he's been good everywhere. Doesn't that prove that QBs don't make the WRs successful? Can't a WR just be good regardless who is throwing to him? What about Hopkins?

What is it with you today flip flopping? In Tenn. it's the qb who elevates the recievers, Jacksonville its the recievers elevating the qb, and so on. So 31 teams have recievers saving the qb, but on the Titans its Mariota making lower level players and raising them up? The fact you even mentioned him in the same breath in the other thread with Rodgers and Brady, tells me what I need to know. Game, Set, Match! Have a wonderful day.
This clown Baconator is so clueless. He doesn't understand that Bortles is about to be a top 5 qb in this league. Look at UCF, Bortles was 13-1 at UCF and Top 10 and now UCF is 0-10 and #127 without him. Bortles is making the Jags competitive. Before he got here, this team lost every game by 15 plus.

What have I flipped flopped about? I was just pointing out that not every WR is a product of his QB, evidenced by some of the current league leading WRs and their mediocre QBs.

Hate to break it to ya, but the Allens are good football players. Hurns had the best half of his career with Henne throwing the ball. But ya, first time I've ever watched the NFL. SMH at the stupidity of that comment.
