I think this is what we'll always get with Bortles. I don't think it is the kind of QB play that gives you long sustaining success but it may be worth the gamble to the FO... IDK...
Yeah, we love the fight and the heart of Bortles. He dove head first trying to get that first down I was fist pumping him... and then on a couple throws I was smacking my head. Before he threw the 2 INTs at the end of the game he had another 1-2 possible INTs. He has a drive like that TD drive in the 3rd... and then he'll have some really bad ones.

I was ready to pile on Bortles for being awful today. I really was... but I took a moment to realize, he was under duress from play 1. The OL didn't pass pro or run block as well as it has been. Early on, he was throwing balls away and throwing them at the feet of guys when the play wasn't there... toward the end it seemed like he was forcing it trying to make something happen, which is understandable since we were down and losing time.
Hack called a lot of passes, and Fournette barely played in the 4th... I'm gonna pump the brakes on piling on Bortles for this game... it was a tough one. But even still, this was the perfect game for Bortles to quiet all the questions, all the "haters"... He didn't do that, imo.
