"The point is that bortles is one of the worst starting qbs in the league and there isn't much light at the end of the tunnel."

"The point is sometimes you have to call it for what it is, and Bortles is not very good."

 

3 weeks ago you said:

"But its not exactly like his improvement has been a revelation for this team, or very significant at all."

 

 

 

Do you still endorse all of those statements or not?

 

1) No, I think this article is indicative of that fact league-wide sentiment has changed. Going in to the season, and even to that point, Bortles was still regarded as one of the worst.

 

2) I still think he is one of the worst, and I don't think his ceiling is higher than someone like Tannehil. Based on his poor accuracy, poor decision making, and major inconsistencies. I think his TD numbers have been inflated this year.

 

3) Yes, despite marginal improvement I still don't think he is very good since then. He completed like 40% of his passes against Buffalo, still with horrible INTs and that gw TD was a horribly thrown ball that Hurns made a tremendous play on. The TD numbers make it look better than it really is.

 

4) Yes, he has made some significant strides individually but it has't done anything for the team. He still hasn't won a road game and the team is still losing to other bottom feeders. The only wins were against a team in turmoil (who had since fired their coach) and a team with half of its starting offense and key defender injured.
