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.

Don’t come at me with that usual suspect bull crap just because you can’t handle my opinion. There’s no troll job here. I lament the fact that Caldwell picked another First round bust. What is that like 3 now. And yet everyone will defend it to the ends of time. It’s obvious when watching Fournette how limited he is. He’s a battering ram that can’t sustain even one season at this level. He won’t last long and he’s already showing signs of chronic injury. 

 That doesn’t help anyone out on this team accomplish an offensive rhythm. This team will not accomplish what it wants till Caldwell is removed. You can’t miss on top five picks and Caldwell routinely does it. Fournette was a major reach. Sadly he’s not helping the jags offense progress because he’s a liability.

Your opinion is lacking facts.

Joeckel- 1st round bust-yes
Bortles- TBD
Fowler- TBD (in his 2nd playing season)
Ramsey- HOFer
Fournette- TBD (Rookie)

Factually, that's 1/5 first round picks for Caldwell that are busts so far.  You have to fairly give guys 3 seasons before declaring them a bust. 

Even if you want to declare Bortles a bust (which I think is naive) that would still only be 2/5 first round picks as a bust at this point.
