Quote:Personally, I think the book on Bortles is pretty close to complete. The 'not a natural thrower of the football' comment unfortunately sums him up completely, and that's something that is kind of important for a QB. I really think we should give Allen a shot in one of the last 4 games. Season is a disaster so there is nothing to lose, which makes it an ideal time to evaluate for the future. I wouldn't throw him in this week at Minny, but give him a shot at the division teams. Who knows? Maybe something good could happen. If not, what have we lost?
 

So what if Allen isn't ready to play?  You just throw him into the fire?  We've already thrown our last two 'franchise quarterbacks' into the fire too early.  I'd rather they wait until training camp next year.  The guy looked in no way ready to play in the NFL in pre-season and I doubt he's gotten any meaningful reps in practice.  You don't risk screwing him up just because Bortles sucks. 

Just because we draft them doesn't make them a franchise QB.  They are a franchise QB when they play like one.  Gabbert and Bortles are not franchise QBs.  Allen probably isn't but give the kid the season, it can't be any worse and he's the only one who hasn't had a chance yet.
