Blake is a Franchise QB. His stats after 4 years coming up to 5 are better then Big Ben, Eli, Alex Smith and many others at the same point in time. Eli was TC guy and Bortels is better at the same point in their career. Although i do agree hackett is a hack. BB5 is a Franchise QB , is he an Elite QB? dont know TB was not considered elite till he was 27 or 28. And quit frankly there are only 3 or 4 Elite qbs Brady, Rodgers, Big Ben, and Breese. If you are waiting to get one of them you will end up being the browns who draft a QB every year. BB is a Franchise QB who in his 4th year took a team to the AFC championship Game and should have taken them to the SB if it wasnt for lousey coaching and bad refs. And in the Championship game with the weight of the world on his shoulders and the hate from everyone not a Jags fan (and even some that are 1010XL ppl included) He went out and went toe to toe stat for stat with the greatest of all time. BB5 is a franchise QB and if he continues to grow and make gains every year by time he is 27 or 28 he may well be a elite QB. As they say anything is possible.

You have to resign yourself that it is not the QB. Marone is a running coach, even if we had Drew Breese here he would game plan to run it 80% and pass 20%. That is his bread and butter. you want a madden QB slinging it around like BigBen it just isnt going to hapen because our Playbook does not have that in it. you think the coaches dont sling it because of blake, it has nothing to do with him it is their coaching style. think of blakes first couple of years yes he was bad but olsen had him slinging it. lots of deep passes and routes. Our playbook now has 3 deep routes up the left up the right and down the middle and one deep crossing. If you want an explosive offense you need a new coach not a new QB.
