I cannot understand how anyone who has seen Bortles this pre-season and last season can say he should start anymore for this
(or any) team. The guy has more career pick 6's than wins. He looks totally lost on the field. The team's energy level immediately picked up when Henne came on the field. Again, this says more about Bortles than Henne. Brandon Allen's body of work is too limited to determine what his future will be. His stats on Thursday came against 3rd stringers.

The comments about basically tanking it this year to get a higher draft pick are absurd. It's hard for me to believe any of these people are season ticket holders or loyal fans. Despite failing to find a good quarterback since Brunell, the current roster has the most talent, especially on defense, in a long time. It is too late to find another starting q.b. for this year. The only possible exception would be Alex Smith, but not for a 1st rounder. He has proven to be a winner when having a solid team around him and maybe the Chiefs would settle for a 2nd rounder and either Hurns or Lee. If this doesn't happen, Henne is the best option right now. Winning 8 games is not at all unreasonable when you look at the weak schedule they play. They can still draft a q.b. next year if they pick in the middle of the 1st round. Aaron Rodgers and Derek Carr prove that you can find a very good q.b. when not picking in the top 10. Bortles and Gabbert prove picking in the top 5 does not guarantee you getting a good quarterback.
