Quote:Regardless of the work being put in.   What is wrong with an insurance policy?    What is wrong with a back up plan not henne?   Could Blake improve?  Absolutely.  However, If he does not who is comfortable with Henne?   Marone benched his starter.  Think he wouldn't do it again?   

 

I see those given Blake the benefit of the doubt.   And that is cool.  Yet.   How many games has he won?  What does he average?   Great qbs make average around him better.  He has not shown he can do that.  Like I said before.  I don't think one True Jags fan who hates our starting qb.   And has a personal vendetta against Blake. 

 

My question remains do to regression, injury, lack of options. etc.   What is wrong with an insurance policy?   Many businesses do it all the time.  Have that person waiting for a chance if something where to happen to the big wig. 

 

Why not give the fan base hope?  Bring in Romo or draft a guy who could take the keys.  In event of a slow start or things go sour.   Some keep brining up pointless stats that lead to top 5 drafting the last three years.  See the problem?  

 

Blake averages 4 wins out of 16 a season.  So if a student is highly talked about and a great person.  Yet only gets 40% right on every test.  Even though has 80's on pretest.  That student is still failing.  So what does the rest matter? 

 

Something mentally is not clicking during clutch times or when it counts.  So the rest looks sensational.  At the end of the day still failing.  

 

And what many of the board is doing is offering Blake extra credit and rounding stuff so he passes.  Yet still averaging 4 wins a year is failing. 

 

 

So it will make the rest of us realist feel better and want to support more with a backup plan.  For just in case.  Cause with out one?  Stats have shown we have drafted top 5 the majority of time since 2008.   And are averaging 4 wins a year.  

 

 

But I will flip things for one sec to more fantasy. Lets say Blake plays lights out.  Still be  better with Someone with promise in waiting.   

 

Even though Greenbay had Farve.  Why did they draft Rodgers?  Was that a mistake?   Even though 49ers had Montana they drafted Young?  Mistake?  Even though Patriots (who people want to trade everyone to)  Have brady they drafted Grop.  Looking like a mistake? 

I guess my problem with this--as it applies to Romo--is that we'd be paying a lot of money to someone who, frankly, won't last very long, particularly behind our offensive line. I'd love to draft a guy like Tribusky (sp?), but is he worth a first round pick? If Bortles fails next year, why not let the kid from Arkansas see a few snaps? Next year is supposed to be a good one for drafting QBs. I'd love to get one then - even if Bortles turns out to be great.
