When they signed Bortles to that extension, that 2017 group was toast. Was a ticking time bomb until it exploded.

Yup, should have went after Kirk cousins when they had that D but didn't listen to me.  I know you know it alls will say cousins suck, at least he can naturally throw a football to a rb out on the flat and not try to aim it.

For some reason I don't believe that. If we would have kept all of the same players, I think would have been able to duplicate our success for at least 3 years. Bortles did just enough, and could have worked on adding a qb in while at the same time, replacing the older veterans with solid drafy picks.

The franchise qb stuff is overrated. They help but they don't guarantee success. You need a solid team overall with coaches and a front office that understand the game and know what they are doing. If we had that, we would still be competing.
