Spacecoast is seriously saying that Borltes outplayed Mariota on the Thursday night game???

 

That is literally how you know you are out of your mind.

 

Mariota was 18 of 22 for 207 Yards and two TD's in that game. He was so efficient that he led his team to a 27 point lead by half time and then when the Jags got momentum, he drove down the field to shift the game back to the Titans to make secure a one-sided victory. Efficiency is Quality. 

 

Spacetoats replies: "oh but the Jags have Gus Bradley"... NO, Stop there! Mike Mularkey is pretty awful if you forgot. They Have a top 5 Offensive line and running game which makes for a very efficient offense and MAriota runs it perfectly.

 

Mariota is lightyears ahead of Bortles. He is the prototype for the modern QB, He's efficient, he can carve your defense in the pass and you have to be aware of his ability to run.. He can wear you down for 4 quarters and it's not perfect, he can't throw deep but he is lightyears ahead of Bortles and the perfect example of the importance of an efficient passer..

 

The accuracy issues are not even mechanical, it's physiological, he can't throw a football with enough velocity in the rotator cuff and quick twitch muscles in his wrist. He has an uncoordinated shoulder and wrist levers in his body. This is the reason has no short game, he can't play small ball --  Bortles doesn't follow through or finish his passes. Watch Carson Wentz, Carson Wentz is a similar QB in size, but he fires lasers to his receivers and masters the efficient nuances of the game, he's going to be a star and he has a rebuilding team as well. 

 

Bortles throws 50 times a game and scores 3 TD's because he puts his team in a hole early and the 4th quarter is filled with the deep throws and this is where you need to understand your great stats you get on Borltes. Those yards become meaningless because 

 

The QB is a big reason why a team wins or loses. Mariota, Wentz, those two have rebuilding teams around them with mediocre and unknown coaches respectively, you can see the progress happening because of the QB play. Bortles doesn't possess those traits and you can't be this blind.
