In year three, I can't say Bortles' issues are any more "fixable" than Gabbert's were.

 

While it's true Gabbert had many more, I'm not sure the issues Bortles has are any more easily "fixed."

 

It's year three.  How long are we going to sit waiting and wishing.

 

Again...

 

Trying to talk ourselves into being satisfied and ignoring the position (as we did with Garrard) lead us to Gabbert.  We sat around on Gabbert for a while, too.  Will we repeat the same mistake with Bortles and not bring in serious competition?

 

Insanity would say we're good.  Stay the course with Bortles and not bring in starter competition.  Insanity would say the patience we use on Bortles will end up differently than the patience we've used with other QBs.

 

I agree that there's a bigger picture, but I don't think you realize how big it truly is.

 

Waiting around and wishing for Bortles to be "fixed" is not big picture thinking.  It's repeating historical failures.  Again.
