Quote:Now the Lions may not have won any titles under Stafford even if his mechanics and footwork were flawless and even if he weren't rushed.

 

But fortunately, he's been good enough for the Lions to at least have had some success with him as their passer.  He's been good enough where they are not ready to pull the plug on his tenure there.

 

What I don't want to happen here is that the team puts Bortles out there before he is ready causing him to constantly play catchup with his fundamentals, becomes dissatisfied with the early results, and prematurely pulls the plug on him without him ever coming close to reaching his fundamentals.

 

I'd rather they fix his flaws now, then, once he's had the coaching needed, put him on the field so they can see what they truy have once he's refined his skills.

Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
