The football acumen in Duval County, Ill tell ya, embarrassing. All these years since the beginning of JDR days you all are so used to having a mediocre passing attack its just something you've accepted. Mediocrity at the QB spot, ball control, game manger days since Garrard. Since Brunnell, Jags have deficient QBs, one is a captain check down with only one pass the slant, one with a windmill windup and lead feet, one with all the physical tool but no toughness, one who's not a natural thrower, one who gets passes batted at the LOS and throws checkdowns, a couple of journeyman scrubs. Coughlin, time to get a real complete NFL qb to win the Super Bowl.

Please tell me when there was a quarterback competition in Cincinnati! I may not be all in on Bortles , but as a lifelong Tide fan I will continue to defend A. J. ! I would absolutely love to see him in Jacksonville.

The idea that Blake Bortles is not the problem has reached epically comical proportions. The next Comcast commercial should feature a Jaguars' fan watching Blake Bortles drop back to pass...."Some people like to cringe when their passer drops back in the pocket..."

A great quarterback can take the water bottle guy and make a Pro Bowler out of him.

Swap Blake Bortles with Tom Brady or Drew Brees then tell me what you expect to happen the Jaguars, Saints, or Patriots.

I really hope that Tom Coughlin and David Caldwell will work hard to bring in A. J. McCarron.

Can't happen soon enough.

As someone who lives in the Cincinnati area and has seen just about every NFL pass McCarron has made, I want no part of him as a starting QB. I believe the Browns sabotaged that trade on purpose, because they realized what a terrible deal they were making to get him.

Not every franchise throws raw meat to the wolves expecting good things to happen the way we do.

Very few quarterback come into the NFL ready to go.

Hopefully, in our lifetime the Jaguars' franchise will mature to the point where they will learn to refrain from the methodically-flawed ways of the past.

Pick a QB prospect and bench him for three years. That's what the better teams unable to acquire a elite immediate starter do.

3 Years? Our window of opportunity may be closed by then. I'm all for drafting a QB and sitting him for a year, but that's the max. We need an upgrade now.

We can't afford to wait as long as it took Smith to develop.

Again, as someone who saw every Bama game he started...... You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about!!
