Was he trying to just throw it away into the turf or is his accuracy on a 5 yard pass just that terrible? I know that some on this board believe he will be given the opportunity to play the entire season, but I disagree. Coughlin and Marrone will not put up with that- even if it means turning over the job to a veteran who hasn't thrown a regular season pass in 3 years or a 2nd year guy who has never thrown a regular season pass. For the fans' sake, hopefully Marrone won't need to make this decision if we see a new and improved Bortles this season.

When I was coaching QBs for our high school team, I always coached if the screen is not there to throw the ball in the ground towards the RB. Or throw it at their feet. This was just a freak play. He did the right thing but it looked bad.

The way he loads up his throwing motion and hangs his elbow and the football drops below his chest is just wow.
