The defense scored one of the TDs AND set up another one with an interception. So they gifted Blake 14 points. Not to mention Pitt had 2 of the luckiest hail mary TD catches I've seen in a while. Oh and that Myles Jack play you're talking about... yea... that's all the defense. Are you really trying to sit here and act like the defense was an issue in 2017 and Blake was fine? You're still making excuses for Blake?

The list is really long.
He's gone...It's dead. We have Nick Foles at QB now so playoffs or bust. No excuses no nothing. We went from a trash QB as some call it, to a clear upgrade. We are a playoff team when healthy so no playoffs this year Different FO next year.

2023 and still counting.....SB will finally be ours soon enough. TLaw aka 'the prince that was promised' supporter.

Do you have a link to where’s this is explained? But then there’s this: https://twitter.com/zach_goodall/status/...33411?s=21

I have certainly more than once rolled my eyes at your expressions of Blake love, but here you are exactly correct. He was very, very inconsistent, not trash. Which is why I suspect he'll never be more than a backup in the future. He may get some starts due to injury - he may be some version of (pick your favorite backup/occasional starter). Oh, if you're looking for class this probably ain't the right place to be looking. So many think anyone else cares about their opinion. Don't they know most are simply looking for recognition of how filled with insight they are. All right - now let's get on with that Foles bashing!

Congratulations everyone!!
We did it, we survived the Bortles experience! A steady rise and fall between awful and average. We will talk about these days for years to come.

As seat said, Bortles and Luck shouldn't be uttered in the same breath.

Depending on the contract amount he signs for this 2019 season the Jaguars can get up to a 6.5M cap credit for next year. So instead of having a dead cap hit next year they can actually get 6.5M extra cap space for next year.
19 million for the 5th year option, 19 million cap hit in 2018
Or 26.5 in cap cost for the extension: 2018 10 million cap hit plus 2019 16.5 dead cap They paid an extra 7.5 in cap for extending Bortles instead of playing out the extension. At the time of signing, 7.5 seems like a reasonable hedge. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

Unfortunately that lasted until week 2 of 2018 and then it was all downhill.

No analysis required. Yeah couldn't possibly mention him in the same sentence as the guy who hasn't even led a FG score in his last 6 quarters versus us and lays an egg in the playoffs |
