Great example of the stats telling a lie. If you look at the stats from yesterdays game or if you look at the stats here in this threat. Everybody that has a bit of a clue and actually watches football games can see that he is not the great quaterback that the stats might hint at. Yes the running game is terrible but the O-line actually pass blocks better than previous years. There was not a single game where Bortles played well for 4 quaters this year. Actually he played bad in all games but the Packers game. He does not throw downfield anymore, he makes 5 yard catches look very difficult, he overthrows and underthrows badly, makes wrong decisions, gets balls batted way too often which is because he stares down receivers and has a slow release and turns the ball over way too much. What is also concerning is he seems to be frustrated way too much and you could make a case that his struggles have affected the defense too in a sense that they have no hope in the offense anymore, therefore lack effort on their part.
