One reason to stay patient with Bortles?

#17

Quote:Where did we rank last year? 27th in the league with 92.1 yards per game. 
As I tried to explain to the space coast dude, right now we are 15th in yards per carry at 4.2. The overall stats are lying because we are dead last in rushing attempts this year at 188. 

 

We are dead last in rushing attempts because Blake is incapable of converting 3rd downs. 

 

Blake's 3rd down numbers this year: 50.5% completions (36.8% for a 1st down), 3 TD, 7 INT, 44.5 passer rating, and 5.2 YPA. 

 

We can pare it down to 3rd and long too and compare vs Mariota since the Titans running game was the reason he has had it so easy according to you.

Blake on 3rd and 7-9: 29%, 0 TD, 2, INT, 10.2 pass rating (!!!), and 5.5 YPA

Mariota on 3rd and 7-9: 57.8%, 1 TD, 0 INT, 100.3 passer rating, and 7.8 YPA

 

Mariota has actually had to deal with more 3rd and longs too, 19 to 17. The problem hasn't been the rushing game, the problem has been the Bortles game.
