Quote:Is it just because the coaches have said it emphatically, that you believe this so strongly?

 

You see literally no situation when Henne is playing that bad, that they say 'we can't play with this guy'? Think Gabbert last year. < 50% completions, 1:7 TD to INTs, 5.6 yards average through 3 games. In your opinion, they just let that continue all season? No way in heck any pro team accepts that level from its QB and expectations have nothing to do with it.

 

If expectations are that low and they are so adamant that Bortles wont play until ready why is he even the backup? If his career can be ruined coming in for a sucking Chad Henne before he is ready, his career can be ruined coming in for an injured Chad Henne before he is ready, right?

 

Or, maybe, just maybe, our coaches are indulging in a little hyperbole and they understand that plans made in May can be subject to changes in circumstance come September.
 

What part of what the head coach and GM have been saying is causing you such confusion here?  He'll start when he's ready.  I think that's pretty clear.

 

We haven't seen this GM or coach engaging in "a little hyperbole" in the past, and I doubt that's suddenly going to change here.

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