Quote:Bortles needs to fix the interceptions, pick 6s, and that horrid throw to JT in the endzone. The common denominator with those 3 things are interceptions. He's showing good progress, but damn. I don't even think Favre was this bad.

 

Lol, don't underestimate Favre's ability to throw pics!  In fact in his 2nd full year he threw 24 INT's.  Bortles is not on that pace.  Also, he was around 3,300 yards and threw 19 TD's.  Now pick sixes?  That is a different story.  Bortles is on a historic pace for that.

 

How many true 2nd year QB's have thrown for 4,000 yards?  That is an interesting stat.  Bortles certainly could fall off the pace and not get there, but interesting stat to know none the less.  I think we remember certain QB's that are great and forget that even they had average seasons early on.  Tom Brady?  Probably the all time greatest QB.  3,700 yards, 28 TD's and 14 INT's.  Definitely a good 2nd year, but Bortles is on pace to beat both passing and TD mark right now.  Again, Bortles could tank the rest of the way, but just trying to put things in perspective.  Also, Brady was in his 3rd year, but only counting 2nd full time starts.
