I don't think I've ever seen such knee jerk overreactions from a 2nd PRESEASON game as I have these past couple days.

 You probably said the same [BLEEP] after the Bengals game last year. We are gonna be trash again this year. You do realize this, right?

Maybe we will and maybe we wont. I won't be real upset either way honestly. Either we'll be good and that's great for everybody. Or we could be garbage, only win 3 or 4 games and be in prime position to draft a top QB in what should be a very good QB draft.

What I don't want is for this team to be a middle of the pack, run of the mill team. Stuck with awful QB play due not being able to draft one high, or possibly not being able to sign one in FA. In hopes of signing one through FA, we're going to have to grossly overpay and hope we still aren't over paying for a QB who isn't going to preform up to the contract given.

What I'm not going to do is whine about how the world is crashing down after a preseason game or two.

I think you are directing that at Marrone right? He is the one that yanked Bortles from being the automatic starter.

Yup, part of it is absolutely directed towards Marrone as well.

I still think him doing this is one last attempt to try and light a fire under Bortles. It very well could be too late, but maybe publicly saying that he isn't guaranteed the starting spot will make him push just a little bit harder these next two weeks.
