He needs more seasoning.

 

 

He never had a dedicated QB coach so he has quite a bit of catching up to do.  I know he's looked great in the preseason and I'm as excited as any Jag fan about our new QB.  I have to wonder, however, if it were Gabbert putting these numbers up vs number 2/3 defenses would we still be saying to start him?  I don't think so, and I think the lack of gameplanning (both the preparation for the other team that BB will have to do, and more importantly the preparation AGAINST him) is really clouding the picture a bit as far as his true development.

 

That being said, I'm glad that he's playing with the 1's during the most important preseason game.  The coaches are giving him an opportunity, which is all a rookie can ask for.  If he takes full advantage it will be interesting to see what happens.  

 

 

Great problem to have!
