Blake Bortles Has Been Named Week One Starter [merged]

Agreed on Henne.  And hope has left town on Blake. 3+ friggin years and decent eyesight is enough to confirm that -- which by the way is a "known fact across the globe" as well, outside of some diehard pockets of Bortles fans/believers/eternal optimist types in 904.

Love to see Bortles "turn it around" (at least I wouldn't have to buy 3 more jerseys), but I'm tired of waiting for the Jags "suck" to stop while "hoping", like some magic pumpkin is going to appear, when all objective evidence points to the contrary. Groundhogs Day has to end, before the franchise is totally trashed. It starts in the FO, like now...

Wow.

I don't expect any miracles from this O-Line or any of the QBs on the roster, but some of you guys already writing off the entire season are going a bit overboard.

Can we see what a regular season game actually looks like from this roster before giving up completely?

I'm there and certainly will. Sorry for the doom and gloom, just tired of the crap..

Dude, sounds as if maybe being a fan of the Jags or possibly the NFL in it's entirety is not for you. If something caused me as much grief as see put on display here daily by some I certainly would not participate. It's just football.

It's just other men's accomplishments or lack there of for Christs sake.

I can't really put my finger on any one aspect other than we have a young team with a good amount of talent. There doesn't seem to be any major conflicts of personalities going on to distract the locker room and we also have some good veteran guidance from Poz and Marcedes.
While the preseason, once again, looks like a presage to a disappointing season, I think the ingredients are in place for a team that will grow and solidify rather well. This time last year I knew with complete certainty that we were doomed to another season of suck. While I'm not much more impressed this year, for some reason I have a different feeling about our prospects. There seems to be more youthful resolve. I believe fan encouragement will pay greater dividends with this squad. Keep hope alive.

Thanks for the life advice, dude, but I'm just fine.  Ignorance does tend to aggravate me, but that goes well beyond being an NFL fan.

No, we have to form our opinion of the whole season RIGHT NOW!

Well, if everyone remembers ....back when BB5 was drafted, henne was the started until what? three or four games?
Everyone was clamoring for Bortles to start......what is this ...wash rinse, repeat?
What I can't believe is Henne is still here years later.  Huh
ah right ...he's been "mentoring".....plueeze.....get rid of him, let Allen backup. Draft a QB next year.

I'm guessing you already know, but Prisco was joking. He mentioned that in the replies.

my goodness. I do not care who you put behind this O line, they are going to have real troubles. Our O line has been very inconsistent to be polite. No QB is going to produce consistently for us until that unit grows up. Trading away draft picks (the future) is not the answer. TC came in here and is dealing with the mess.

I am watching the 49er game they have a pretty solid O-line. Colin Kaepernick was under performing with their line and wasn't going to start so he opted out. We probably saved his life by not signing him.

The offense lacks talent and it has for a very long time. It's the single reason we've either been bad or inconsistent since Tom Coughlin first left.

Single reason? 

We've gone through droughts of talent in the secondary, the pass rush, the Sam LB, the coaching staff, etc...

Primary reason would be a better choice of words. Thank you.

Can't wait for TC to "Break the News" to D.Marrone that His services are not longer needed after we end up 0-4

Dude, sounds as if maybe being a message board user is not for you. If something caused me as much grief as see put on display here daily by some I certainly would not participate. It's just a message board.

It's just other people's opinions or thoughts for Christs sake. 

(sorry, couldn't help myself...)
