Coughlin deserves some heat for this. We gave him and the front office a pass because we finally made it back to the play-offs. The extension for Bortles made sense. I just think it's hard to get over the conservative approach in that AFCC loss.

As DF pointed out. Bortles played well in two play-off games. And then we saw him get handcuffed by the coaching staff just before half time in that loss. That's where a lot of this grief is coming from with this fan base right now.

Nobody wanted Bortles to fail. I was pulling for that kid this year. We all got hyped up after that win against New England. And then little by little. All of the pieces of Armor that Bortles had around him on offense started falling off. He loses his horses up front. He loses his work horse in the backfield. And then he loses his best receiver and receiving threat at tight end.

Did he get a raw deal? Maybe. Did Hackett get a raw deal? Maybe. But one good season out of five appearances is just not enough to justify the extension. Complacency will kill you in any major sport. And that's my fear right now with Khan. What's he going to do in the next few weeks? Do we chance it again with Marrone? Or do we move on in a different direction?

At this point I prefer we move on. I have seen enough.
