Quote:Blaine Gabbert only got 2 seasons and 3 games, so I'm not sure that's possible if Bortles doesn't show signs of improvement, but maybe that's covered by "ridiculously unpleasant."  My thought is by the end of the second season, the jags will know if he's on the right track or not.

Gabbert never put the kind of work in that we're seeing from Bortles.  He also never stepped up and assumed the role of leader in the locker room or on the field.  All indications are that Bortles has done everything you want to see your young QB doing to improve his situation.  In addition, the front office has been working to build the talent around him to assure he has every weapon necessary to succeed.  I don't think the previous front office ever really did the same for Gabbert.
