Ouch! Harsh words for bortles and ranked dead last in QB index

It just makes it hard for me to slam this kid completely on some of his short comings. We've seen in the past where coaches and offensive coordinators come up with a gameplan that suited their quarterback's strengths. Denver didn't try to force Tim Tebow to be a pocket passer because that's not what he was. They tailored that offense to run around his lack of passing abilities and leaned towards his abilities as a runner. Atlanta never tried to slow down Michael Vick from being a scrambling nightmare. And the one season where they tried to make him throw from the pocket more often actually lead to him getting hit and dinged up and he wasn't the same guy. That was a short lived experiment and for good reason. Washington didn't force RGIII during his rookie season to be anything other than what he was coming out of Baylor. Is he an afterthought now? Sure. But at that time it was the best decision for that offense and it worked. You're seeing Mike Mularkey doing the same thing with Marcus Mariota with the tacks as well. A good coaching staff doesn't force it's personnel to fit into it's scheme. A good coaching staff will adjust or adapt it's scheme to fit it's personnel. Right now it's 50/50. Blake needs to step it up. And the offensive gameplaner needs to step it up. I'll be fair here.
