Mariota seems like the more accurate passer by completion percentage, but just can't seem to make some throws at all, and is apparently too frail for the NFL. Bortles misses some throws inconsistently, but not always the same throws like Mariota, and he's never missed a start.

The difference between the two is we already know Bortles can throw 35 TDs in a season and isn't an injury waiting to happen. If the Titans pay Mariota they'll end up regretting it.

Thats fair. I'm holding out until we see what mariota does with competent offensive coaches. I think lafleur will get 10 times what terry freaking robiskie did out of em. So yes, they picked up his 5th year option. Now go out and earn your next contract. Bortles earned his extension last season after several bad seasons. Hopefully he continues to improve as well

And I think if Mariota gets anything it'll probably be something closer to what Bortles got than to what Andrew Luck got, and that's if the titans have a successful season. That's by no means assured, especially if they try to change the scheme to be less run heavy and Mariota gets injured early in the season again.
