I am in the camp about the offensive lineman here. We've given up over 100+ sacks in just 29 NFL starts for Bortles. That's horrendous. We still need to get better in the running game. We still need to protect Bortles better. His thumb injury in the 2015 season finale could be a scary foreshadowing of what 2016 could look like during a few stretch of games when we need him to be healthy. And the turnovers. That has to be cut in half regardless if the defense improves. We simply have to see them continue to grow but it really needs to be seen in the trenches. 

 

We also need to a 3rd receiver to fully develop or rise to the challenge on this team. Whether it's Lee, Greene or Walters I don't honestly care. We just need to see somebody else come in and help out. Hurns and Robinson are getting more and more attention now. Which means it will eventually be more and more difficult to get them the football off and on throughout the season. Julius Thomas has to stay healthy as well. I think he showed flashes after his injury. But Bortles was desperately trying to force things his way too much. So hopefully that's corrected this pre-season. 

 

And don't discredit or discount a healthy Andrew Luck for the clots. I don't know why some folks keep sleeping on this team on here. They had one bad year with him being injury riddled and prior to 2015 they were always in play-off contention or leading the AFC South under his abilities. That's why they went out and focused early and heavily on bolstering his pass protection through the draft last month.
