Quote:Not necessarily, but what'd be gained by waiting til week 2 or 3? Seriously? Id rather he play and get as much experience as possible in the no pressure situation that is this season. Because come next season , there will be more pressure on the coaches, front office, and consequently Blake himself.

It hurts nothing.


Who cares what pressure it puts the staff under next year? Unless you're one of them, it shouldn't matter. That's their concern.


What I do know is that behind that line, if you throw Bortles out there and he gets hurt, the same people opining that he's not the opening day started will rip the staff for putting him at risk knowing the line wasn't ready.
