JW, could you make a Bortles thread everyday? it would be great to see his development happen before our eyes each and every day on this message board.

One tracker thread is enough as long as people keep posting in it. We also have a Bortles vs. Bridgewater thread in the NFL At Large section, but that will not work this weekend because Teddy is out tonight. Do you want one that is only for tracking Blake every week?

Super neat-o indeed!


I still like the daily bortlescope idea.

Bortles reminds me of Favre more than Big Ben. Blake is going deep and he doesn't care about an interception.

Blake does care about interceptions. He called the two that were his fault "stupid" in postgame pressers. But he did make a point during his Wednesday presser that it is important to look at the "whole picture" instead of just two interceptions, which is the right way to think about it. When he learns to stop trying to do too much (a rookie mistake), we will not see two interceptions every week.

I don't see that really.  Favre would do too much of "f*** it and chuck it" and make some errand throws his whole career.  Bortles is a rookie that is going to make mistakes, but I don't see him developing into that.

I wonder how the Jags would have fared these last 10 years had they drafted Big Ben at #9 in 2004 instead of Reggie Williams.

 

He was right there and went 2 picks later to the Steelers.

 

Oh what could have been......................................................

I survived the Gus Bradley Error.

Just think we could have had Suggs and Big Ben.

Would you pick a franchise quarterback two straight years? That was one year after we got very lucky and picked Byron Leftwich at #7.

This.


While the body style similarities are obvious, the playing style reminds me much more of Favre.

I'm trying to make myself more informed and less opinionated.

Stop saying whatever stupid thing you're talking about and pay attention to all the interesting things I have to say!

I never thought of Brett Favre as a mobile quarterback though. He was more of a strict pocket passer.

---

He reminds me more of Luck than either Big Ben or Favre.  He's big, athletic, eludes the rush and can get it to any point on the field.

All that can be said about Roethlisberger, who is similar in size, body type, playing style, and skill set.
