What's needed to fix Bortles...take the fear from him...

I anxiously await jaguarmvp's next anti-Bortles thread and thread warning us to lay off the Koolaid.

I am not going to get too crazy after this game. I can omit that maybe the Titans are better than I thought as well. Going to remain cautiously optimistic.
Birth of the Franchise - November 30, 1993
Death of the Franchise - November 29, 2011 Fans deserve better. Thanks for all the good times too many are in the past.
Thrilling as it is to see him play well, I'm still reserving judgement. I want to see him do this EVERY week, consistently, if there's any hopes of not drafting a QB this next year.
And hey, I felt a moment of kinship with the man when I saw that bald spot....Lord knows I started shaving my head for good reason....
Bortles not too bad today but this was a team that was 2-0 against Browns and Cinci. We saw what happens against a decent team. I’ll reserve further judgement. I do expect wins against the upcoming weak teams.

They played a more up tempo offense today and he did well. I think that helps him significantly. It’s going to be week by week with him. Let’s hope we see more of today and less of last week. If we do, this team is going to surprise some people. Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Who knows but man.... give the dude credit when he plays well.
Someone mentioned they saw an opened bottle of vodka and a shot glass in Bort's locker before the game..
Could explain why he looked like a decent QB today..

I gave him credit. A 65% completion deserves no more and certainly not “great.” You’ve been jaded. ![]() We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

I’m not jaded because QBs don’t throw for 4 TDS each week. It’s not the norm. Blake could very well throw 3 picks next week but this week.... he was great.

It also helped a lot that they were throwing on early downs a lot rather than the "It's 2nd and 17, need you to show Tom Brady how to play now, Borts."

If you need his address for flower delivery, let me know. His play was okay for me and I appreciated the ball control offense. ![]()

When the defense is pitching 3 and outs consistently as they did in the first half (and causing turnovers), it makes things a lot easier. Bortles played really well today even taking that into consideration. I still don't believe if we go down 2 scores and the opposing D is teeing off against the pass that Bortles is the guy to overcome that. There are very few in the league that are, however. I think we still need to be looking for the future at QB next year, but today was a promising note for Bortles career which to date has been lack luster.

1. Good O-Line play
2. An effective running game 3. Effective receiving options between the numbers, not just Hurns, Lee and Robinson working it on the perimeter

It was amazing. He didn't do anything real stupid today and made some really good throws.
Lest we forget how bad he can be... |
