Quote:Exactly.  I don't get these threads every week.  I understand the optimism (sort of), but we know what we have in Gus Bus.  We are going to look good on a few selected drives, we may stay in there by the 4th quarter, and finally we will see an epic meltdown to where we lose the game.  Rinse, wash, repeat with this team.  Up until 2 years ago, I had faith we could pull out a win every Sunday.  Now, I don't expect anything but disappointment.  I watch because I am that die hard of a fan.  We haven't looked professional in about 5 years, and it's getting really frustrating.

I understand the optimism early in the week before a game I just don't understand the apologist and the franchise can do no wrong crowd. The we're too young and shouldn't expect to win crowd when you clearly see Carr or Mariota younger than Bortles and that team of nobody's winning and looking good while doing it in his 1st year. But somehow Bortles and Gus get the young and learning pass for years in the NFL of all places in cookies n cream Jacksonville. This ain't pop warner where the participation crowd can clap for the young losers. Win or get out and let someone who knows what they're doing take over.
