That being said, you do have to keep defenses on their toes by throwing on 1st or 2nd down occasionally even if your QB is what Blake is.  Fournette is great about getting an extra yard or two that other backs wouldn't get, but you can't be playing to get to 3rd and short every series because you aren't going to convert 3rd downs at 75% or probably even at 50% consistently.  Jags are currently ranked 21st in the league with a 36% 3rd down conversion rate.  It's going to have to be a lot better than that combined with fewer turnovers for this team to win more games than it loses or we'll need to somehow manufacture more big plays.  Running on 1st and 2nd and passing on 3rd is predictable and won't likely lead to many big plays.

I agree but that has to be the game plan. If Blake has to drop back chances are something horrible will happen. We aren't just talking about an inaccurate guy. We are talking about someone who will give up multiple turnovers a game. That's  what I see. When you turn the ball over 3 times you will lose 99% of the time. This is why we have been losing. You can't average almost 2 turnovers a game and expect to win. That has to be addressed first and the only way to stop that is limit to amount of times the ball is in Blakes hand.
