Quote:It's interesting how many people think Blake should be given a shot at completely tearing himself down and starting from scratch going into his FOURTH season. He's had 41 starts, likely 45 going into next year.

 

We were tossing Blaine out of the door and he only got 27 starts. He was also 6 months younger than Blake so the "but he's only 24" argument doesn't even work. 

 

And don't get me wrong Blaine got plenty of time, but so has Blake. He isn't the future, unfortunately.

 

It's not "interesting."  It's clearly because Blake managed to string together substantially more "good tape" than Gabbert did.

His good moments in his second season outshone anything Gabbert has ever managed to accomplish by miles. 

Gabbert's performance in Jax was so bad in fact that comparing the two at all is a waste of time. 

 

None of this is assuming Bortles can be fixed. It's a longshot for sure.  But if you find it "interesting" that Blake is getting consideration when BG didn't, then you must have forgotten just how bad Gabbert was.
