Quote:To me both Gus and Dave seem like intelligent guys and seem to know what they're doing except when it comes to QB position.  I just don't understand why they have been sticking this long with Gabbert and Henne??  Okay I understand the Henne situation, he's a backup that knows this offense well and can come in in case the starting QB goes down, but why they stick with Gabbert this long?  Anyone who has watched him play for the past 27-28 games (not sure on exact number) can tell you that he is not an NFL level QB.  He had strong showing in the last two preseasons, but that's it.  He has done nothing and I mean NOTHING in the regular season that makes you say "okay this guy has got it" or "he's getting better".  I think even if he showed a slight and I really mean SLIGHT chance of improvement in the regular season it would justify them sticking with him, but he has yet to do this.  In fact you can make a case that he has been getting worse.  Is there outside pressure on Gus and Dave from not wanting to discredit Tony Khans analytics which were clearly statistically bloated in favor of Blaine... and also considering that he's the owners son... ?

 

I think it would be in Jaguars best interest to suit up both Scott and Stanzi and give them a chance to prove themselves.   We don't know what these guys can do yet, but we know for sure what Gabber and Henne bring to the table.  At this point we have nothing to lose and for those of you that don't want to risk of winning with a new QB because you want to tank for Teddy are 100% wrong.  Not that long ago Browns were in the same situation and were more than likely stockpiling picks to trade up and grab Teddy in case they didn't end up at #1 until they gave Hoyer a chance.  He had an excellent showing and looked like a franchise QB in the making until he unfortunately went down with the injury.  The point is this gives them a chance to focus on other position of need in 1st besides a QB and if Jaguars a team who is pretty much in desperate need at every position could do the same it would be a HUGE positive moving forward.  

 

Its still early in the season and both Stanzi and Scott would have enough time to show you what they got, I just don't understand why it hasn't been done yet?
