Didn't read the thread, so sorry if this has already been stated.

 

I haven't seen Bortles regress at all. In preseason, there were no schemes and teams weren't game-planning for him. Now, he's been up against the real deal Holyfield all season. Has he had some rough games? Sure. He's a ROOKIE!!! He isn't going to get better and better each game, sorry. As much as we would all love him to have a 4,000 30 TD season, it wasn't going to happen this year. He has another offseason to work on his footwork. The game appears to be slowing down for him somewhat and he is making better decisions. The only thing I have been frustrated with, is the fact that 75% of our plays are within 5 yards. Not sure if that's on Fisch's gameplan (or lack thereof), or Bortles checking down too much. Either way, we are 3-12 and out of the hunt, so throw the ball down the freakin' field!
