Quote:There is never any malice or spite in your posts, which I respect, but I need to ask you...why are you so hellbent on portraying Bortles in the worst light possible? Seriously...several of you are coming across like you're on a personal mission to try and tear the kid down in the eyes of fans. Why is that?

 

For me anyways, there is NO agenda going on to start a "I hate Bortles campaign". I simply don't believe he is nearly as good as "some" on this board think he is. I still think he makes way too many mental mistakes (even for a young 2nd year QB). Look, we have plenty more games on tap to let the cream rise to the top on this subject of Bortles. So at the end of the season, let's see how he stands in wins and also personal stats. Of course he should show improvement over last year in just about every category. My concern does he actually have the "right stuff" to take his team to the next level? Time is the only guage we can use as a mark. If it turns out he does have it.........good for him and good for the Jags. If it turns out he is just an average NFL QB...........what then?
