I figured out who Bortles reminds me of.


Quote:Again, padded stats as the team continues to get decimated by the worst teams in the NFL. He is still erratic in the pocket,  inaccurate, still makes horrible decisions, crumbles under pressure, and is still an INT machine. Sure, he's improved, but he isn't even the best QB from his draft class and likely won't ever be more than an average QB.

 


 

Rookies make mistakes, surprise. How about the poise he showed in the face of adversity today? Took a couple dirty shots that most thought would put him out for quite some time but stayed in a toughed it out. Whats funny is that despite all his struggles, he is still light years ahead of where Bortles was in his first 5 games.


He is hands down the best QB from that draft class. I'm willing to bet you $5k on that also.

Coming from someone who time, and time again uses Blake's rookie year in his argument against him? If my posts make me look childish, how do yours make you look?

Hell, lets raise the stakes I'll take that bet all day. What metric are you using to make that evaluation? Carr is better in every statistical category and passes the eye test. You're facing an uphill battle here.

You mean his body of work. As I've continued to reiterate, padding your stats while the team is getting blown out does not impress me. I've acknowledge his improvement, but you act as though he doesn't still struggle with the same issues he did as a rookie.

Every statistical category? How about you try again.

we were blown out of 1 game, and LOL lucky plz stop posting

 Pats, Bucs, and the Texans game were all well out of hand in the 4th. Garbage time TD's made the scores look closer than they were.

It seems like a few people on this board just need to trash talk blake no matter what when he does anything wrong just because they said he sucked earlier in the season. They don't even want him to do well they just want to be right about him. There's a million problems worse than bortles right now but since he made a few mistakes all we are hearing is about that. It's pretty crazy.

WTH, we had the lead in the fourth today.

That was, until the pressure was on Blake to answer when the Texans took the league after the Hopkins TD. Same old story, when the pressure is on he throws a pick six, another INT, and multiple wild passes. Were you watching the same game? He also threw one in the redzone which should have been points for the Jags, and was lucky to have his very first INT called back because of a fluke flag on the DB. He did not play well today, regardless of whatever stats you want to cite. When the plays were meaningful the the team relied on him to carry them in the face of adversity, he wilted. Same old story.

Quote:Love the revisionist history look back at Garrard.


David Garrard played for a team where if he scored 17 points he would win most of the time.


Blake plays for a team where if he scores 35 he will still lose most of his games.


Garrard had a running game and a defense. Blake has neither. And is already a better pure passer than Garrard by lightyears. In his second year.


But dream on.
Garrard had those things in 2007, but the D was gone after that. I think he was the main reason we went 7-9, and 8-8 Genes first two years. Garrard deserves more credit than he gets around here. If he had been healthy, instead of Gabbert in 2011 (which had a great D and great running game) we probably would have been in the playoffs.  Actually that thought scares me alot, cause we would probably just now be getting rid of Gene...



Yes, it's improvement, but it's Blaine Gabbert 2012 level improvement. - Pirkster

Blake did answer the pressure, leading the team down to take the lead. I don't care who you are, a quarterback not named Brady or Rodgers should not have to do that over and over. I realize you're just a troll with nothing better to do on a sunday afternoon but harass the boards, with a bag of Cheetos and probably a juice box in hand so this concludes my responses to your posts. Perhaps you could work on those Carr stats I asked you to back up your statement with?

Took the lead? You realize the team was outscored 21-6 in the 4th quarter (only score was his garbage time TD on a drive that was a 3 and out but was saved by a penalty). You keep taking shots at me, and you don't even know me. Would you grow up already, I'm tired of it. 

 

As for the stats: Carr has more wins, a better TD:INT ratio, a higher completion %, and a higher YPA. Anything else?

If we had Yeldon today I guarantee the outcome of this game would be different.

Jacksonville is now #32 out of 32 teams in defensive points per game ALLOWED. Anyone who is blaming Bortles for not coming back when you have the worst defense in the NFL should have their head examined.

It seems like some people have an agenda and want bortles to be bad so they can be correct about their initial opinions of him. So when we has a meh day everyone will come flocking to say I told you so. Even though there were much more pressing concerns than a few mistakes by blake.
