Quote:Trading Bortles would be throwing away the season. What? you really want Henne as the starter? If we had Romo, Cousins or even McCown I'd might be ok with trading him, but no way in hell we trade him now.

 

If a lot of folks were being honest with themselves, they wouldn't be purposefully overlooking this.  Team has been "win now" mantra since Coughlin was brought back and stated their objective was to help Blake.  To move on is to say you're OK with not winning and taking lumps during a transition.

 

There's the possibility he cans himself.  That's up to him.  They're going to give him the opportunity to rise or fall on his own merit.  Coughlin expects to win with him.  If we don't, then they'll move to someone they feel can... but not until after that plays out.
