Quote:Yeah i did watch him alot and i stand by what i see. Bortles doesnt work well from the pocket and doesnt run an offense that asks him to nor is he asked to make any changes or adjustments and his offense is extremely simple.

 

Of course other QBs have made those throws but when one QB does it consistently and the other dosnt it creates a gap.

 

I have actually watched every vid on Draftbreakdown of Bortles and watched some multiple times. I did this all college season.

 

I do see potential in Bortles but you guys act like im making stuff from thin air. He doesnt have to go through complex progressions. I talked about that in the Scar game when they ran the same screen - slant combo multiple times over and over. He throws the hitch,screen, slant and occasional post with a couple fade routes mixed in but its almost all short one step passes and thats just there to be easily seen.

 

I went through the first half of the SCAR game and posted my thoughts on each play. Someone else do the same please.

 

I watched the cut up of every passing play from the Penn State game, and Bortles was changing plays at the line, and doing exactly what you say he didn't do. 

 

You say he ran screens, slant combos, hitches, posts, and fade routes.  Isn't that pretty much the bread and butter of most NFL passing offenses?  And you say it's almost all short one step passes.  You clearly didn't watch the Penn State game if that's the case. 

 

You watched the SCAR game.  You don't think that MAYBE just MAYBE they game planned it the way they did knowing they were facing a guy that was considered one of the top pass rushing ends in the league?  That couldn't be possible, right? 

 

Nobody, including his coaches, Bortles himself, or anyone on this board is claiming he's plug and play ready to go, but you're spinning this like Bridgewater is the only guy who has ever made passes like the one you referenced from the pocket, and that's just garbage.
