Quote:Blake Bortles today was 2 slightly better thrown balls away from another 300+ yard 3 td/ 1 rush td 1 int WINNING performance today. The BETTER news is he made those 2 reads correctly and attempted the throws as a year 2 quarterback, one being in crunch time. The JT throw was JUST out of reach and the read to Hurns at the end was a TD if he hits him in stride and the throw is just a little better. Blake Bortles is for real, our offense is for real. We made the right calls and reads, but were JUST off from having 30+ points up again. We get a better starting or depth LG with a healthy Linder and Cann next year, this offense is set. Also, that Lee catch showed some AMAZING ball skills and concentration from Lee, I flipped out when I saw the effort on that catch. High effort guys like that who make plays are what we need, he just needs to stay healthy.

 

Now the defense, we are a range safety and a rusher or 2 away from having a serviceable/good defense(assuming our corners develop at all). They played a poor game on third down, but also gave us some shots to win today with turnovers. Everywhere else on defense is at least OK, Linebacker might be something we need more depth at.

 

Coaching is such a crap chute, I honestly feel like if the defense has a bit more talent we win 10 game sthis year despite of who is the head coach. I would prefer a new HC, but change for the sake of change COULD be worse than what we have in Gus. I think Babich is done though, leaving more optimism to be had about the defense.

 

The loss hurts today, sure. It was deflating for me as well and all of us should be pretty upset. BUT! This team is CLOSE, for real this time (Not Mularkey, Jeans Miff close).

 

This is my positive outlook on things as of now, even if this loss hurts.
 

Blake Bortles, Allen Robinson & Allen Hurns are legit.  M. Lee is getting there needs to be healthy, need a bit more from the TEs Julius, Thomas, M. Lewis (but most teams would like to have JT just a timing thing)...

The Offense has a lot of potential to be elite, just needs some fine tuning during the offseason but the talent is def. there!


On Defense its an entire different story... especially with DBs...
