I wasn't as outraged at Bortles' week two performance as some here, but he looks like he's lost something along the way during his time in the NFL. Ideally he would be at least functional as he was at the end of least season. If Henne is starting games for this team I foresee a lot of fans heading for the exit at half-time this season.

That is a distinct possibility.  Most would say probability.

But I think there is a way for that to be minimized.  It's the same analysis as Bortles.

I firmly believe if the running game is going well, keeping us in favorable down and distance situations, Henne's liabilities can be minimized and he might have his moments of effectiveness.  He has an abundance of talent at WR.  He has an offensive minded coach.  He should be more productive than when we last saw him in the regular season in 2014-if the running game is doing its job.
