Quote:How can anyone honestly suggest that Brandon Allen should start this season? He's honestly so bad, he should have been cut and I wouldn't lose sleep on him clearing waivers

I'd rather try and save the season by Trading Henne to Cleveland or trying to get Joe Thomas.. these blow-up strategies just mean 5 more years of rebuilding and it's too exhausting.

Bortles needs more experience and more time working on technique... just like with Blaine Gabbert it needs to be really bad or really good, not in the middle.. so you have several outcomes:

A.) Bortles plays the season out and throws 15 more picks and losses out, you can feel better about moving on from him, trading or releasing. Gus is fired

B.) Bortles wins 4 more games, maybe a 11-7 TD-INT ratio, so he stays and Gus is Fired

C.) Bortles makes it to 7 wins, sneakily win AFC south - Both Gus/Bortles stay but with the awkwardness of being mediocre still

D.) Bortles throws 25 TD's wins out, make playoffs and win a playoff game - Xbox freezes at 3:42 am

Most importantly, Henne/Allen are not starting QB's - maybe somehow Allen stops being so terrible and becomes a decent back-up (I always have hope). So the logic of trying to make it happen is not justified until Bortles is truly bad beyond return .. Some of you are just angry and not thinking straight.

It's his throwing motion. He's done.

Enough with he's 23 years old, he needs more time, he's needs coaching, etc.

He needs to fix his arm bc he don't throw normal.
