Quote:As a fan of neither team, as of right now, I go with Luck and that isn't to take anything away from Bortles. Bortles had good stats this past season but Luck has a history of rising up and taking games over when it mattered the most despite his ugly stat line. He's clutch.

 

It's a commonly held position. Essentially because the colts have been good enough to make Luck's efforts possible he is recognized for it, while Bortles has mostly labored for a team that hasn't managed to hold opponents to less than 412 points on a season since 2011.

 

We'll see if Gus can manage to show himself worthy of the roster in 2016. I have my doubts, but the talent is there, the defense should be significantly better than it was in 2015, and if it's not 100+ points better then Gus needs to be shown the door before any more years of Bortles time in the league are wasted.
