Blake Bortles was 8-10 for 220 Yds and TD's on passes that traveled 20 or more yds downfield yesterday

Quote:Playing behind a terrible O-line with zero running game and a terrible head coach and terrible defense.....I'll say he's pretty mentally strong. See his stats vs. playoff QB stats.....we would be a playoff team if you improve the Jags weak areas. Those areas haven't been addressed in Gus' 3 years.


Well there's no denying a better all around team and coaching would make Blake look a lot better if he's winning. Hell if he stayed the same and we're winning I couldn't bark at that too much. However I think of things like when Eli Manning won the first Super Bowl and the Giants were borderline mediocre. Eli was a big play Qb and was sort a gunslinger like Blake is now. But then he'd turn the ball over like crazy. But something changed. Granted the defense was stout and the coaching staff was great. But the biggest improvement was Eli took care of the ball and closed out the year and had an amazing playoff run and the rest is history.


My point being that you can have other prices around you be better but if the turnovers are not resolve it can derail a great run. Yes the coaching, defense and special teams need drastic improvement. But Blake needs to make the biggest of them all. Better to start approaching that now then when our team is stacked and finding out that Blake still has a turn over tendency.
