who has more credibility evaluating talent, message board people or former nfl players. I'd say NFL players. If nfl players say Kaepernick is good, sign him Jaguars.

There aren't many teams that have a starter that CK is actually better than. Most owners don't want to deal with the headache he will bring as a BACKUP. If "football minds" think he is better than Bortles, he deserves a serious look IMO.

So how many of these "not many teams" have a starter that CK is better than? Care to name them? My immediate thought is perhaps Houston (questionable) or perhaps Miami. There are 10 kinds of people in this world. Those who understand binary and those who don't.

Marone and Coughlin have no allegiance to Bortles. If he hasn't improved within the first game or two, I can see him being replaced by Henne.

Go Jags!
*To stay up for atleast 2 years 3/6/17 2016 draft players I think will be good

I am guessing he will have a job before the season ends as a result of injury and/or a HC trying to save his job if their season quickly goes south.

At this point, they should just make Bortles participate in tackling drills if you know what I mean

Kaepernik sucked in SF with an offensive guru as his head coach. He had marginal success under Harbaugh, but never hit the numbers Bortles did in his best season. Couple that with the distraction caused by his baggage, and the guy simply isn't worth league minimum. That's the reason nobody is signing him. I'm not quite sure why that eludes some folks. Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Can't count how many times I've gotten frustrated with a coworker and said something to them or muttered it, but I'm guessing the ones making the uproar in this thread have never done this. Passion in the heat of the moment is what I chalk it up to. Not every football player is perfect and the ball wont always be in the right spot everytime. It's not automatic as much as some want it to be.
You either die as a good poster, or live long enough to become the troll.

Blake has never been a good practice player. What is most important is, that he finds ways to shine when its time. Rhyme~
However... Accuracy, or lack there of.. Hesitation (holding onto the ball too long).. Bad reads. Poor decisions. Over and under thrown balls (which may fall into the accuracy category) and wobbly ducks. Those things can be concerns heading into the season. I just hope that Blake can Brett Favre this mug and allow it all to click, with his gun-slinger mentality. He has thrown for a ton of yards and a gang of TD's the last 2 years. Has run for his fair shair too. Come on Blake. We're all rooting for you to just be better in all categories, so this team can start winning some games.
You Gotta Be Able To Run Da' Rock~
Marone's full comment in context via Mike Kaye
Quote:Marrone understands that he is pushing Bortles to be better. He said he does that with all of his players, from the quarterbacks to the specialists.

And he should unless he has a complete meltdown, he wont have to throw the ball over 600 times again, which he was top 5 in the NFL the last 2 years and he shouldnt have a awful running game this year, that helps alot. People act like Bortles doesnt do anything right, at the end of the day he is still the last two years 35 td to 18 ints and 23 tds to 16 ints, thats better then most bust QBs, and something Henne never came close to doing in his career but yet people want to put him in.
