They might have figured that was Gus mistake and they weren't gonna repeat it. It actually finally gave us a winning season and many believed he should've been coach of the year.

My point is they say they are all in this together (Tom, Dave, and Doug) they just resigned him to an extension so they must believe in him to an extent.  So you have to give Blake a chance when the game is on the line or you will never know.  The coaches messed up in the championship game not giving Blake a chance, the same game he just set a personal career high in 14 straight completions.  Blake was our best player that game, and if Ramsey is upset about this he needs to look at his defense because they are the other reason we didnt make it to the SB

The coaches messed up in the championship game by not giving Blake a chance when the game is on the line?

Let's take a look at the last drive of the AFC Title Game:

1st and 10 at JAX 25
(2:48 - 4th) (SHOTGUN) B.Bortles pass short middle to M.Lee to JAX 33 for 8 yards (S.Gilmore).
2nd and 2 at JAX 33
(2:19 - 4th) (No Huddle, SHOTGUN) B.Bortles pass deep left to D.Westbrook pushed ob at NE 38 for 29 yards (S.Gilmore) [T.Flowers].
1st and 10 at NE 38
(2:12 - 4th) (SHOTGUN) B.Bortles pass incomplete deep left to L.Fournette.
2nd and 10 at NE 38
(2:00 - 4th) (SHOTGUN) B.Bortles sacked at NE 45 for -7 yards (K.Van Noy). FUMBLES (K.Van Noy) [J.Harrison], recovered by JAX-C.Robinson at NE 47. C.Robinson to NE 47 for no gain (T.Flowers).
(2:00 - 4th) Two-Minute Warning
3rd and 19 at NE 47
(2:00 - 4th) (SHOTGUN) B.Bortles pass short right to J.O'Shaughnessy pushed ob at NE 43 for 4 yards (E.Rowe).
4th and 15 at NE 43

The game was entirely in Blake Bortles' hands. Bortles choked.
