Quote:He's no Garrard or Gabbert. Both were thrown to the wolves in their rookie year. Caldwell has said: ''We can't just throw him out there. We've seen what happens when that happens."  Bortles will be what Brunell was when Beurlein fell to the way side. If one remembers, he and Favre we're considered throw aways. Look what happened: Brunell led the team to a hair's breath of making history, and [Brett] Favre led the Packers to at least 4 Super Bowls. Caldwell even said of  "Jadeveon Clowney would have fallen to No. 3, ''we still would have made this pick.'"

 

So be patient. This guy will be what this team needs. I'm more than sure of it. There's a Super Bowl in the near future.

 

Besides, he's not a Keyshawn or those others saying, "Me. Me. Me. to hell with the team."

 

This is not correct. Garrard was drafted by Tom Coughlin in 2002. He was the heir to Mark Brunell, and Quinn Gray was the spare. Bryon Leftwich came in 2003 and threw himself to the wolves.

 

Gabbert was screwed from day one. For one thing, he wasn't Tim Tebow.

 

Put yourself in Gabbert's place. His first three NFL seasons were nothing short of Groundhog Day.

 

Year One - New coach. New offense. New offensive coaching. No veteran QB.

Year Two - New coach. New offense. New offensive coaching. Chad Henne.

Year Three - New coach. New offense. New offensive coaching. Chad Henne.

 

Blaine essentially faced three rookie seasons in a row.   Plus, a media more than happy to fuel a bunch of angry Gator fans and Tebots. Plus, Gabbert found himself carrying way too much pressure as the Jaguars became a completely unstable franchise when Weaver sold.

 

The media has really screwed us all. They are the ones that keep foiling anything and everything. If it weren't for Frenette and his clan of dipsticks, we'd still have Coach Coughlin and who knows how many Super Bowl titles?
