"Don't Cry For Jacksonville", MMQB on Dante Fowler Injury

#26

Quote:I really don't get people who keep saying 'it's all on Bortles'. The fact is... that the odes is clearly on the offense this season to score more points to keep us in games. The problem is that Bortles, while being the leader, can't score points by himself. He requires support from his teammates; namely...

the line MUST block better than they did last season or any play will die quickly, the RB's MUST run with their eyes open and see the field, and last but not least, the receivers MUST run accurate routes and most obviously... catch the ball.

 

Obviously, Blake has to improve as a quarterback too and not make so many of the rookie mistakes he made last season. It hardly seems like it needs pointing out, but a large amount of those 'mistakes' were facilitated by our line being so porous. It's a team effort, so it's more accurate to say 'it's all on the offense this season', not just Bortles.
When people say it's on Bortles, I'm pretty sure they're saying the offense has to get better starting with him.  It's not JUST on him, but if he flounders, or he's injured, the team is drafting in the top 3 again.

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