The Bortles hate has gone way overboard.

He has played 3 seasons and his last 2 are 1st and 2nd all-time in yards and touchdowns for the Jaguars. The flaw in his game has been interceptions, yet he has statistically improved in that area every season. If it weren't for about 8 very fluky interceptions last season, he would have significantly jumped in that area. He needs to be better in order for us to be an elite team, but have you guys not seen enough terrible quarterback play to realize that he is not a terrible quarterback?

It's just weird how nationally so many are starting to jump on Bortles as the posterboy for bad quarterback play when there are so many quarterbacks out there that wish they put up the same numbers as Bortles. How is Jameis Winston considered one of the good up-and-coming quarterbacks of the league, but Bortles is a lousy quarterback who throws too many picks? Do people know that they are almost identically statistically and that Winston throws picks at a higher rate than Bortles, even with last year's fluky interceptions? Good thing Brett Favre didn't start playing football in today's era because he would have been ran out of the league and tarred and feathered as the worst quarterback to ever play the game.
