And as far as waiting for the o-line to be solid? If GB lived by that philosophy, rodgers would have never seen the field. The argument to sit him just to sit him is ludicrous. If he has the playbook down, and is practicing well, then there's no reason not to make the switch.


One season of waiting is also another year we'll have to wait to begin the evaluation process.... If we're still bad in 2 years, we could be in line to draft a new stud qb (a la the roethlisberger situation), but since bortles will only have had 1 year of starting, that won't have been enough time to do any sort of proper eval. From the front office standpoint, buying time makes a good deal of sense. Fans should be a bit skeptical of that though, esp. when henne is the alternative.
