I always look at completion pct for any QB. If he is accurate in dinks and dunks and he can throw the deep ball perfectly which Bortles can, it means this kid has something special.  Plus he can move in the pocket and throw on the run (both sides). Unless he is screwed by bad coaching or have a lack of talent around him, I don't see how he can't be great.  They need some safety net for him whom he can go to. Bortles is made to play like Brady after Brady became Brady.  Remember Brady had a good team around him and he had to do only few things on his first few years. Samething for Luck, Roethlisberger. They had #1 receiver, Tightend or something whom the QB can go to.  This kid has nothing. ARod  and Lee are all rookies and Cecil got injured.

 

This kid is going to be something special once he figures it out. It takes some time to figure out. They had to let this kid play on his own, let him throw interceptions and let him learn from it. Don't do what JDR and Mularkey did to their QBs. like protect the ball etc play conservative etc. That would be a recipe for disaster. Also they got to better protect Blake. Atleast he shouldn't get the direct hit on him. Couple occasion he got hit (Thanks to burst Joker).
