The San Diego Chargers will lose to the Jacksonville Jaguars

#36

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:15px;">Let me know what you think of these improvements to the same article:


<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:15px;"> 

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:15px;">Blake Bortles has it all. His arm is very strong. He's big and strong. He can run enough to be called a mobile quarterback. He makes good decisions and makes them quickly.


<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:15px;"> 

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:15px;">The reason Bortles was the first quarterback picked in this year's draft is he is like Ben Roethlisberger without the rape accusations. I suppose that means he can also get hurt a lot, but durability was not a concern when he played at  UCF.


<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:15px;"> 

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);">I am a big believer that a rookie quarterback should make his first start at home if possible, but after seeing what happened the first three weeks, I have to say now is the right time to make the switch. There is a lot of pressure on Bortles, who must play with guys close to him in age and replacements for injured starters.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);"> 

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);">The big problem with the Jaguars this week is that their offensive line hasn't played great in front of Chad Henne and Toby Gerhart, but neither of those guys were doing the line any favors. Gerhart can't stretch the defense horizontally and Henne holds on to the ball too long to be an effective NFL QB. Bortles gets rid of the ball almost immediately after hitting the back of his drop, which will help his offensive line quite a bit, and Denard Robinson's speed will also help the Jaguars get first downs.


<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);"> 

<p style="font-family:'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:15px;">Expect a better performance from the Jaguars offensive line in San Diego.


<p style="font-family:'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;font-size:15px;"> 

The Jaguars have decent wide receivers with great upside, but Marqise Lee is out Sunday and Ace Sanders is suspended one more week for a drug violation. Second rounder Allen Robinson and undrafted Allen Hurns can make big plays downfield. Cecil Shorts has also been productive and can only get better with Bortles.

 

What that means is the Chargers should be ready for lots of long passes all over the field because Bortles isd not afraid to take chances and with Gerhart starting at running back, the easiest way to get a first down is through the air. The team that dominates time of possession will win this game.
