Can Bortles Reduce the Turnovers ?

Quote:You're missing the point good sir.


You are attempting to show that Bortles was a victim of pure bad luck and that he actually had a good INT % when you take this into consideration. My counter point is that you should also consider that he had quite a few passes that the defenders dropped. Not saying he had more that anyone else, simply that you have to consider both his bad luck and good luck, the result of which balances out and still shows he is very turnover prone.


Here are the condensed games so you can take a look for yourself.

Feel free to let me know if you disagree.
 

I guess I am missing your point.  Why even point out that he has interceptions dropped then?  Every quarterback in the NFL does.  What is relevant is the fact that he accounts for roughly a third of all tipped interceptions in the NFL and at a rate approximately 8 times greater than other quarterbacks.  Blake didn't have the same amount of tipped interceptions in previous seasons.  He had just one in 2015.  

 

People are going way overboard trying to play the blame game and shoulder Bortles with the whole load.  He actually improved last season in several ways.  The problem is that he needed to cut down on turnovers and not only did they go up, but were more noticeable/impactful in the fact that there were a lot of pick 6's - bad luck or not.
