Quote:The sacks worry me. A rookie QB can have all his potential sacked right out of him. Yesterday, I saw Bortles duck away from phantom pressure. Very Gabbert-like. He had time to throw the ball, but he panicked and ducked right into the pass rushers. He's lost confidence in the blocking in front of him.

Can't say I blame him. He tougher than Gabbert ever was though. I think it's also because earlier in the year he would have tried to force passes in those situations and that's when he would throw a lot of his INTs. I think he's learning sometimes it's better to take the sack than force the throw.


Not to say he's not feeling phantom pressure. Bc he is. I think he'll be ok though.
