"Garbage time" lol.. Wheres Trevors garbage time stats at. We've had plenty of terrible games with him where "garbage time" would apply.

Been down this rabbit hole already with Bortles and situational football. I am not going back down it. Feel free to dig through his game logs on pro-football-reference.com to find the same conclusions I found years ago. 

Bortles had opportunities to keep his job, he found some job opportunities around the NFL in a back-up capacity. He ultimately faded into obscurity after one little brief moment in the sun. 

I liked the guy. He had a fun personality, had some great soundbites, but, he was just a little too Joe Cool and laidback without the actual gusto and wins to support it. No harm, no foul. Same feelings I had for Gardner Minshew. Cool guy, just falls a little short when it matters the most.
