After the game when asked about his interceptions he gives no excuses, just bad throws. Says he can't keep hurting this team, has to do better, and will do better. When asked about his insane throw to walker with 4 colts around him, he gives all credit to walker. This kid is a leader, and he earns everyones respect the right way. So yes, he makes it hard not to like him.

Mariota is the much better passer than Bortles. He makes passes that Bortles could only dream of. That triple coverage he made to Delanie Walker was a beauty to see. Sometimes he gets ahead of himself and thinks he can make any pass there is, thats why hes kind of been reckless with the ball this year, but no question in my mind that Mariota is far the better QB than bortles.
