Yup,

 

It's all about ratings for the national media.  Manziel, like Tebow, gets ratings so they cover those types more than anything else.  If Bortles turns out like we all hope, we'll be getting more coverage. 

 

But Bortles doesn't appear to be a controversial type of person (thank goodness) so while I expect us over the next few years to be talked about more, we'll never see the type of coverage other things in the NFL will get.  

 

It's just the way the media works now...  After Manziel busts,there will be a new media lightning rod that will garner all the attention.  

 

In the last 3 years it's been Tebow, RGIII, and now Manziel...  Next year, it'll probably be Jamis Winston.  All I care about is that once we start winning we'll have some Sunday Night games that we'll be flexed into.

 

Imagine if Bortles becomes the man...  Luck V Bortles could potentially be the new Brady V Manning....
