1. We have refused to get him an athletic safety blanket TE
2. We have refused to shore up the OLine.
3. We have refused to get him a real WR weapon. He is playing with mainly rookies for crying out loud.

Are we expecting too much from Bortles with his current cast? Probably. Are Bortles flaws too much to overcome? Probably.

I laugh at the fools who said "Why isn't Bortles good with all the great WRs he has Hurns and Robinson?"........uh did any Jags fans watch Hurns and Robinson play last year? They were both terrible, couldn't catch or get off the line of scrimmage much less separate from opposing corners. 

This year with actual SPEED WRs, Keelan Cole, Marquise Lee, and Dede Westbrook----actual WRs who know how to separate, the offense is #5 in the league. 

Bortles is good. Doesn't matter which WRs are in the game- Bortles makes them better. The people who said "Allen Robinson is elite were wrong. The guy is a possession WR who can't beat #1 corners." 


The entire offseason will be spent on getting 3-4 MORE OL players......already a shortage even if we had Branden Albert. Bortles plays GREAT when his OL protects and plays terrible and throws INTs when his OL can't protect.......that's 95% of QBs in the NFL.

Good God, you are blind.
