^ same ol song and dance from the usual suspect:
"It's ALWAYS someone else's fault, Bortles is the bestest!"

One week it's LF to blame.
Another week it's the O-LINE to blame.
Following week, it's the "worst WRs in the NFL" to blame.
After that, it's the coaching to blame.
Then, it's the "Defensive PPG" to blame. 

It's NEVER Bortles' fault. He's GREAT! The rest of the team (and the inept Jag fans) are holding him back!


Give it a break man. It's a TEAM sport in the NFL. They're all in it together, and affect outcomes of games. Yes, even BB makes boneheaded mistakes at times too.


LF is a good player.

Fournette was a terrible pick due to his chronic ankle problems.

He'll probably never give the team more than a few good games a season until they let him walk in a few years. Considering the team was already loaded with talent it's going to be a long time until we get another top five pick and wasting this last one is going to set the team back compared to what it could have been had it taken someone that won't spend half of every season useless due to injury.
