The grabs he made in the 3rd for the TD and 2pt coversion were beautiful. They were extremely hard catches (especially going full sprint and having to slam the breaks and get both feet inbounds on the TD). 

But yeah,, he loses yards trying to make things happen quite often. He needs to be more deliberate and decisive on those.

Agreed.  That drive was Blake's best and Lee made three great catches. He had really good YAC on the crossing route early in the drive. (see what happens when that pass isn't behind him? Blake is getting better there)  And then he had the great sprint to the pylon and foot drag for the TD - followed by laying out for the catch on the comeback route for the 2 pt conversion. 

When he's good - he's a very good receiver.  Consistency is the problem.

It's probably why the Jaguars offense is so hot and cold when Fournette isn't in there. When Bortles and Lee are both hitting plays the offense does great. When one of them isn't the offense is stagnant. When both of them are doing bad the offense stops.

With Fournette earlier in the season there was a consistency of performance the team hasn't otherwise had now that ARob is out. Normally ARob would be the guy that Bortles looks at first, and he's not a dancer and he generally catches the ball if it's thrown where he can catch it without being hung out to dry by a DB.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's not with Bortles, but next year with ARob back (presuming he does come back) I think the team will look more consistent.
