Quote:No doubt.  But I just don't see anyone, except the blatant trolls saying that BB5 is gonna be a bust.  He's a rookie and he needs more time to grow and get better.

 

But he clearly needs to continue to work on his game.  That's something we can all agree on, right?

 

 

Just to say, "yeah, he's making rookie mistakes" is to white wash the fact of what it really means.  He's making mistakes because he NEEDS MORE WORK.  If he doesn't work on his craft, he's not gonna be good.  

 

We need to see him progress over the next few weeks.  These mistakes he's making now are fine, but if they continue, it's something to get concerned about.

Saying a rookie needs to work on his game is just stating the obvious.

 

Working on ones game to constancy usually takes years. He will continue to make mistakes this season. That is just something people need to be prepared to expect.

 

Bortles is going through this process for the returns he will bring 4,5,6,7 years down the road, not for this season.

 

People need the patience and the mental discipline to let the process work itself out.
