Quote:That tells me he has a commitment problem.

A great QB doesn't regress because he's concentrating on gameplanning now. He just adds extra time spend practicing his mechanics. Whether that's in his living room, in the lunch line at the stadium, or in the film room watching the next team's scouting report, he should be reinforcing the basics all of the time.

I disagree. I see a QB who came from a mid-level program who had the potential and the skill set to be a very good QB in the league. He had areas that needed work, and that was the focus for him leading up to the season. I don't think he was ready to go when they forced him into the starting role. I think the mistake here was the coaching staff caved to fan sentiment. The calls to bench Henne were getting loud, and that was being pushed on them constantly by the media. Rather than sticking to their plan, they buckled, and we're seeing the end result of that now.

Even some of the greatest QBs struggled as rookies. This is not something new. I don't think it's a lack of commitment, or a lack of effort for Bortles. I think it's just the typical learning curve and adjustment to the pro game that we're seeing right now. It's exacerbated by the lack of a consistent running game, a young line, and very young receivers. Hopefully he can overcome this and be the guy everyone would hope he'd become for this team. That remains to be seen.

Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
