NY Post writer says Jags need Eli

And to even mention Eli... He just led his team to the #2 overall pick.. Are you guys serious? LOL

If you can't see that Alex Smith is a clear cut upgrade to Blake Bortles, there is probably an eye glass store nearby you can go get your eyes examined so you can actually see the difference in QB play. 67.5% 2017 completion percentage, takes care of the ball, can hit the deep ball better than Blake, scores more tds, throws less picks, and is also mobile. He wasn't the issue in the Titans game. We get a QB to throw 72.7  competition %, 264 yards and 2 TDs/0 ints on our team vs Tennessee, we aren't losing that game. I guarantee the run game would benefit greatly from a guy like Alex Smith. You can't be serious. 

Blake had 4 games with multiple ints, and 5 games with 2 tds or more in 16 games. He also threw 5 less TDs. 

Smith had 7 games with 2 tds or more, and only 1 game with multiple ints in 15 games. 

Smith 26 TD 5 INT 4042 YDS 104.7 Rating. (15GP)
Bortles 21 TD 13 INT 3687 YDS 84.7 Rating (16GP)

Its a no brainer, maybe you are missing the required organ to make it a no brainer.

Alex Smith threw for an entire grand total of 70 yards in the 2nd half of that game vs the tacks.... He had a great first quarter, nobody denies that, but he completely crumbled after that 1st quarter..

And you continue to reach by saying "if you can't see blah blah blah is a clear upgrade over Bortles blah blah blah". I never said anything about Bortles.. You really need to stop assuming things, especially considering the fact that Smith is about to be bounced from his 2nd team, even after they reached the playoffs.. How is that not an obvious sign?

Also, Smith is 33 years old... Bortles is 25 years old... I'd like to hope that Smith is at least slightly ahead of Bortles in development at this point in time.
