Completely Agree. 

That's why I  said "that there might not be any upgrades (none, affordable, or draftable ) out there for BB."

Bortles played well at times, really well at times, and pretty "meh" at times this season. 

No reason to move on from him unless there is a surefire upgrade out there (I don't think there is). 
However, just because the Jags made it to the title game should not be the only reason to say that Bortles is the guy.
Plenty of underwhelming QBs have made it to title games and Superbowls over the decades. 

** IIRC, the downfall of the NYJ after those "championship years" was due to FA in the defense and O-Line,, and the defense started getting "long in the tooth at key positions.

^ I'm on board with that too. 
I think that's the best option. Let Bortles continue to play and keep his job by playing well. 

Draft a guy to develop and then compete for the position of he shows enough ability.
