Quote:I said it because even though yes, its only 12 games, it appears to be going in reverse/ regressing. Its one thing to show slow "progress" and then cite "its only 12 games". But regression is a whole 'nother issue. When the player starts out like Bortles did, and playing loose and confident, and very well, and 12 games later you look at him and the player is now a shell of what that initial player looked like, I think you have a major issue with the people developing this kid. 

 

Good points.  

 

While there are multiple issues that are the cause of our lack of success, to deny that coaching / player development are a factor in this.

 

Look at the offense versus the defense in terms of progress.  The D has looked much improved from week 1 till now.  Yes, we have some holes, but all in all, what we are seeing on the d side is progress.  

 

I'm hard pressed to cite any progress at all on the offensive side besides how well the rookie WRs are doing.
