I think what's happening this year is that the front office finally believed that they had jussst enough offense to compliment this defense going into 2018. That's why they only invested a little bit more on that side by adding in Norwell and Sefarian-Jenkins. Norwell has had his up's and down's so far. Jenkins was already hurt going into the regular season.

They were hoping Fournette would hold up. They were hoping Lee would hold up. They didn't plan on being down to a 3rd string left tackle. They didn't plan on having to sign two RB's nearly half way into the season off the street. [BLEEP] happens. All we can hope for now is that this coaching staff finds a way to keep us afloat or at least hovering around .500 until they can get some of their pieces back or bolster it through film study and practice.

This season reeks of 2006 all over again though. Where we were coming off a big, big season and the expectations were all there and then they followed it up with an 8 - 8 season after coming off a 12 - 4 run the year before. They were hoping the pieces they added would be enough but now it's biting us pretty heavily pretty much due to all of the unexpected injuries.

Now us passing up on Sony Michel or another offensive lineman there for Taven "Bambi" Bryan is starting to look even worse under the microscope.

I know the MSM is calling for Bortles' head but honestly who else is out there? Eli Manning wouldn't last behind this offensive line. He has ODB, Barkley, Sterling and Ingram on offense and he still can't do enough. He would flat line behind this offensive line. If fans want to see Kessler? Go for it. He may or may not pan out. He looked good in the pre season against scrubs. It's a different ball game now when you're talking starters and mid season football.

And he would be handed the same exact offense that Bortles has had now.
